Season V will be the final season for
Street Fighter V and Capcom has revealed it will begin with the Winter Update. The season was originally due to kickoff at the end of 2020. To make up for the delay, the Winter Update will include a bonus character for Season 5 Pass owners. Now the season will begin on February 22, just a few days after the game celebrates its fifth birthday.
Dan Hibiki was the character originally due to release with the update. He returns with a mix of familiar and new moves and mechanics. His special moves include the Gadoken fireball and the Koryuken uppercut, while he can still close the gap between fighters with his Dankukyaku kicks. His new moves include a multi-hit punching move known as the Danretsuken that can knock opponents flying, while the EX version sends them higher into the air. His V-Trigger I activates his massive Haoh Gadoken fireball that can be charged up. Finally, his V-Trigger II is allocated to fireball and uppercut special attacks.
