The Thailand Stage will be available on April 25th for $3.99 / ￥400 / €3.99. It is also available for 70,000 Fight Money.

Also revealed at our WonderCon 2017 panel and on the Street Fighter Academy Quiz on April Fools, we are happy to unveil concept art and the final in-game look for the three premium school costumes for Ryu, Chun-Li and Juri.

There are additional outfit concepts in the article link.

 

[lucebuce12]

Chun-Li looking fine.

 

[firelogic]

Schoolgirl Punk Juri. <3

 

[sixteen-bit]

Wrong Thailand stage to bring back.


I guess they gotta save something for if/when Sagat ever comes back

 

[delSai]

Those are some awesome costumes

 

[OnPoint]

Nice work capturing the old essence.

 

[Neoxon]

Before everyone freaks out about the new character not being mentioned, the blog said that more news about the April update would be coming soon. I'd imagine that would include the new character.

 

[The Salt Life]

Not the Thailand stage I was looking for...

 

[Sou Da]

That concept art is amazing.

 

[Clipse]

Where are the nostalgia alts for Ibuki and Alex?

 

[Leafhopper]

Not the Thailand stage I was looking for...

Sagat ain't in the game so you won't get that one yet :v.

 

[Sir Doom]

I thought there would be tiger in my Thailand stage

 

[sixteen-bit]

Not the Thailand stage I was looking for...

Sagat's absence is more harmful than I expected.

 

[Tagyhag]

That Juri costume tho, lawd.

 

[LelouchZero]

Wow, their costumes are awesome!

 

[stn]

Is Ryu going to have that twig hanging out of his mouth all the time, lol? All I really want is the 3S Alex costume.

 

[The Salt Life]

Sagat ain't in the game so you won't get that one yet :v.

Yeah apparently they been pissing me off since day 1
No Guile in Vanilla, in year two and it looks like no Sagat or Blanka, they must really not want me playing this game.

I saw the thread title and had hope, and my hope was pyscho crushed into the corner by memories of scissor kicks and head stomps.

You'll get PE Teacher Alex and you'll like it.

 

[The Lone Dragon]

Also from the article:

More new content for April is on the way, so stay tuned for more.

Probably info on the next character and the CFN update.
Wishful thinking says they reveal the next character on ELeague this weekend, but who knows.

 

[bizzarewars]

Chun-Li's costume looks awesome.

 

[Brian_FETO]

All three costumes are nice, well done Capcom.

Interested to see the new character, if I'm not mistaken the next silhouette is the one that looks like Rashid's partner?

 

[sixteen-bit]

Chun-Li's costume looks awesome.

Best of the bunch, easily.

 

[lucebuce12]

You'll get PE Teacher Alex and you'll like it.

Why make an Alex costume when we can make another one for Chun-Li!

All three costumes are nice, well done Capcom.

Azam, Rashid's butler.

It might be him but there have been a lot of guesses that Byron Taylor (Guile's army buddy) might be the next character.

If there is any light at the end of this. Sagat might happen but considering this is supposed to be before SF3 who knows, and it won't be this year it would have to be next year because of who is supposed to be coming out this year.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Juri looks great

 

[Brandon F]

Only 3 characters get the outfits?

That business model working overtime!

To be fair, half of the base roster was mainly World Warriors, and Guile & Balrog came in Season 1 (with Akuma headlining Season 2).

I'd imagine that Sagat is more of a when than an if, but I don't recall the likes of Blanka ever being that popular (definitely iconic, but not popular).

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Awesome the Thai stage from SF 2!

 

[BadWolf]

Azam, Rashid's butler.

It might be him but there have been a lot of guesses that Byron Taylor (Guile's army buddy) might be the next character.

Er... neither sounds very exciting.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

That's the closest we get to a new Rival Schools.

 

[Gren]

Where are the nostalgia alts for Ibuki and Alex?

This. It's kinda weird that, despite coming out after Ibuki/Alex's costume announcement, Urien, Akuma, and Kolin all got nostalgia outfits already (admittedly Urien's was probably much easier to create).

 

[Neoxon]

This. It's kinda weird that, despite coming out later, Urien, Akuma, and Kolin all got nostalgia outfits already (admittedly Urien's was probably much easier to create).

Plus Urien's was a free easter egg for all of his costumes.

 

[pizzacat]

Just a reminder the time between sf3 ng and sf3 2nd impact has been shorter than the time between sf3 nostalgia costumes announcement and it's eventual release I guess

 

[lucebuce12]

Er... neither sounds very exciting.

Azam is suggested to have "wind" powers like Rashid but he's also a big body character so maybe a grappler.

There's a lot of potential for that character IMO.

We know literally nothing about Byron, except that he is in the army. His playstyle could be ANYTHING.

They did a pretty good job with Kolin's moveset so I'm confident that the next character will play well regardless of what archetype they might be.

 

[Solidus187]

Because Ryu and Chun don't have enough costumes already.

Anyway, the Thailand stage looks pretty good. Hopefully the remixed theme isn't butchered.

 

[Tizoc]

Street Fighter Academy huh?

 

[Pics_nao]

Oh cool.

Did the Nostalgia costumes ever release?

 

[Reverend Funk]

Did they seriously just give chun and ryu more costumes

 

[sixteen-bit]

Oh cool.

Did the Nostalgia costumes ever release?

Nope, lol.

And they were announced like 10 months ago.

 

[Galactic Specter]

Juri's hair looks like ice cream

 

[RM8]

Chun's costume is "should have been the default costume" good. Ryu's is okay I guess, if very cliche. Juri's is horrible and we still don't have any costume that even slightly feels taekwondo-ish.

 

[jett]

They could've tried to make Ryu look younger at least, lol.

 

[Lights and Waves]

Chun Li looks great!

 

[Brian_FETO]

Azam, Rashid's butler.

It might be him but there have been a lot of guesses that Byron Taylor (Guile's army buddy) might be the next character.

Er... neither sounds very exciting.

Yeah, because of that my interest has been in the final three characters this year

Though, to be fair, they did some really rad stuff for Kolin. Didn't think I'd grab her but figured I had the fight money, may as well

 

[Dark Ninja]

Oh cool.

Did the Nostalgia costumes ever release?

Not yet but they were shown at the same time as the Thailand Stage last year so maybe soon.

 

[Shadow Ranger]

Actually think this looks pretty good. Good job!

 

[sixteen-bit]

They could've tried to make Ryu look younger at least, lol.

He's trying out for season 2 of 13 Reasons Why

 

[joe2187]

They could've tried to make Ryu look younger at least, lol.

No...in fact...put in bearded "Hot Ryu" in the same costume even.

 

[lucebuce12]

No...in fact...put in bearded "Hot Ryu" in the same costume even.

The world simply isn't ready for this.

 

[Numb]

I only need 1 Ryu outfit

That Chun tho
