Street Fighter V PS4 PlayStation 4

Following on from our story earlier today, a little more has been revealed about veteran brawler Ken's appearance in Street Fighter V. The character was revealed at the San Diego Comic Con a few hours ago, and writing on the PlayStation Blog, community manager Peter Rosas has outlined some of his attacks.

"Employing a wide variety of fast moving, long range attacks, players who enjoy an aggressive in-your-face style of gameplay will feel right at home with Ken, with his flashy combos and big damage," he explained. One thing they, of course, won't feel at home with is his hair, which is already causing something of a backlash. Expect angry petitions any second now.

Regardless of whether he takes a trip to his nearest salon, the American uppercut expert's special moves sound pretty slick. Using his V-Skill will allow you to quickly close the gap between you and your opponent, while his V-Trigger will add bonus hits to your attacks, as the character channels flames through his entire body for a short period of time. We wished that we could do that.

This is the start of a big month for Capcom's forthcoming brawler, as more announcements are expected at EVO 2015 next weekend. The title's beta will also be kicking off from 23rd July, so that's worth keeping an eye on, too. Are you excited to see Ken make his triumphant return – or is that bob putting you off? Take a trip to the barbers in the comments below.
