Last week, a new trailer for the upcoming Street Fighter movie celebrated Capcom's return to the live-action limelight for the first time in over 15 years. This momentum is now shifting toward the current game, Street Fighter 6, and its future DLC roadmap. Speculation is reaching a fever pitch among the community as rumors suggest that FF7’s Tifa is coming to Street Fighter 6, which would make her the franchise's first-ever guest character from a non-fighting series.
A Potential Year 4 Character Pass Leak
According to reports via WCCFTech, a recent post on the Street Fighter subreddit has ignited intense discussion regarding the game's next roster additions. The leak highlights potential fighters for the upcoming Year 4 Character Pass, specifically naming several iconic characters.
The post features a comment from Reddit user RnK_Clan, who provided a specific list of four potential inclusions:
- Vega (also known as Balrog or "Claw")
- Gouken
- Mike Haggar from Final Fight
- Tifa Lockhart
Why Fans Think FF7’s Tifa Is Coming To Street Fighter 6
The reason the community is taking the news that FF7’s Tifa is coming to Street Fighter 6 seriously is due to the credibility of the source. The user RnK_Clan has a proven track record for accuracy within the fighting game community. They previously correctly predicted the arrival of Terry Bogard and Mai Shiranui in the 2024 Year 2 Pass.
While the prospect of such a massive crossover is exciting, no further details regarding this specific batch of DLC have been shared by the leaker. As of this writing, an attempt to reach Capcom for comment has gone unanswered.
