The Street Fighter V roster continues to expand. While we've already seen several familiar faces appear in Street Fighter V, Capcom has done a good job of adding all-new characters to the upcoming fifth numbered entry in the legendary fighting franchise. At the Brasil Game Show, Capcom officially announced Laura Matsuda as the latest addition to the roster.
Laura joins Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Cammy, Vega, M. Bison, Birdie, Charlie Nash, Necalli, R. Mika, Rashid, Karin, and Zangief on the current Street Fighter V roster. Laura, who hails from Brazil, represents the first Jiu-Jitsu specialist in the Street Fighter franchise. She uses a grapple technique that features a projectile called Thunder Clap that stuns opponents. This move is designed to cause indecision in opponents' minds as they debate getting in close to engage Laura.
The new fighter also has a "Spark Show" state, which makes her projectiles further-reaching and her attacks and grabs deal enhanced levels of stun damage. With her moveset, Capcom claims Laura could become a favorite for players who like to get in close with their strategies. You can see Laura in action below and judge for yourself.
Street Fighter V is set to hit PlayStation 4 and PC in Spring 2016. If you'd like to learn more about the upcoming 2D fighter, you can check out Matt Miller's hands-on impressions from Tokyo Game Show.
