Street Fighter 6 Introduces First Crossover Character: Terry Bogard
A newly unveiled trailer for Street Fighter 6 has given fans an exciting glimpse of the game's first crossover character, Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury. This marks the first time in the franchise's history that a mainline title will feature third-party guest characters.
During the recent Summer Game Fest, it was announced that iconic Street Fighter villain M. Bison and Elena would be added to the franchise's 2023 entry as part of its Season 2 DLC. This set of new characters also includes the first guest fighters not from properties developed or published by Capcom: Terry Bogard and Mai Shiranui from SNK's Fatal Fury. Around a month after M. Bison joined the Street Fighter 6 roster on June 26, Capcom released an action-packed teaser for one of these guest characters.
The trailer, revealed at EVO 2024, showcased Terry Bogard in Street Fighter 6. The Fatal Fury protagonist, who also appears in SNK's The King of Fighters series, will join the latest Street Fighter title this autumn. Both Fatal Fury and Street Fighter were created by legendary Japanese game designer Takashi Nishiyama. After his time at Capcom and SNK, Nishiyama founded Dimps, a game studio that has recently focused on mobile titles with publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment.
