Cammy and Gen join Street Fighter 4 roster

Just like every other fighting game today, Street Fighter 4 (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) is calling up the reserves and expanding its roster of fighters. We’ve already seen the mainstays and how they put the fight in Street Fighter. Now they’ll be joined by two more characters – they’re not new, but they’re certainly welcome additions.

With fighting games boasting impressive rosters of their respective fighters, Capcom isn’t letting its legendary fighting title bit the dust. Just like every other fighting game today, Street Fighter 4 (PlayStation 3, Xbox 360) is calling up the reserves and expanding its roster of fighters. Cammy, for one, has appeared in many Street Fighter titles since her debut on The New Challengers. Gen, on the other hand, has more experience in terms of age than air-time. Either way, they’re making their way into Street Fighter 4.

The scans confirm – apart from the mainstays and the rookies, Cammy and Gen are in the game. They come with their old moves, plus a few more tweaks, such as Gen getting an anti-air grab and a dashing ultra move. I wonder if they’ve changed “Spinal Arrow”? That move is suicide when blocked.
