Released back in 2016, Street Fighter V is still getting new content from Capcom. The developer and publisher of the game announced that a new version of the game, Street Fighter V: Champion Edition, will launch early next year. Capcom is calling it "the most robust version" of the game which will come with all content (excluding Fighting Chance costumes, brand collaboration costumes and Capcom Pro Tour DLC) from both the original release and Street Fighter™ V: Arcade Edition. That's 40 characters, 34 stages and over 200 costumes for you to choose from!

Also announced was the return of Gill, the leader of the Secret Society and the end boss of the Street Fighter III series. This fighter uses pyrokinesis and cryokinesis, allowing him to control fire and ice with perfect elemental balance during combat. While he will be part of Street Fighter V: Champion Edition when this version launches next year, he can also be acquired separately starting in December 2019 for MSRP $5.99 / £4.99 / €5.99 or 100,000 Fight Money. A new trailer was released for the announcement:



Street Fighter V: Champion Edition releases on February 14th, 2020 for PS4 and PC at an MSRP of $29.99 / £24.99 / €29.99. Want to learn more about what to expect of this installment of the classic fighting game series? Check out our official review below!

Gill who?
Probably the boss of Street Fighter III.

he'd be forgettable, if he wasn't so obnoxiously cheap. His one super move is literally to repel you from being able to hit him and a full life refill. Granted, the game tries to throw you a bone in 2nd and 3rd editions by locking him from simply re-using it again, but it's still ludicrously awful to deal with.

Only way I was able to deal with that bastard, was catching him in Akuma's Shun Goku Satsu super by around 30% of his health. Just enough that he won't try to actively use the super and enough to ensure that by connecting, i definitively defeat him.
