Capcom will be hosting the Spring Update live stream on April 6th on Twitch, YouTube, and Facebook at 3:00 PM PDT. The event will coverdetails aboutStreet FighterSeason 5and more information about the long-awaited characters Rose and Oro. Unfortunately, it seems that there will not be information about Akira released during this live stream, but hopefully, there will be more details soon.
According to the original roadmap, Rose was supposed to be released during the Spring update while Oro was meant to go live with Akira in the summer. However, the COVID-19 crisis forced Capcom to change its plans anddelay the release of Danwhich was scheduled to be released last winter. There is no updated roadmap yet but the early release of Oro might be an attempt to get back on track and have Akira available this summer. The last character to be revealed could still be available this fall but its identity is still a mystery.
The roadmap also specifies other releases that will come withthe new characters in this update. Rose is meant to come with five costumes and a stage, while Oro comes with only three costumes. Akira was announced with five costumes and a stage as well. Finally, the mystery character will come with three costumes and a stage that is scheduled to be released next year. Hopefully, Capcom’s live stream will confirm the release date for the Rose DLC and give an updated road map in addition to all the information about the Spring Update.
