Okay, here goes nothing. Let me put on my imaginary ruffled writing cap.

So, Capcom’s at it again, stirring up the Street Fighter soup with a spicy dash of Year 3 Character Pass goodness. I mean, who doesn’t love a good brawl? And if you don’t, well, maybe you’ve been living under a rock? Or maybe you’re just, erm, not into fighting games. But I digress.
Anyway — or wait, what was I saying? Oh, right — we’ve got new punchy people joining the fray soonish, and it was all revealed in a trailer that left me giggling like a kid hearing a fart joke in math class. Kenny Omega, bless his spicy antics, dressed up as the new fighters. Yes, all of them. Imagine trying to keep a straight face as he pranced around as Sagat. Good times, indeed.
So, who’s crashing the party? We’ve got Sagat (who’s basically royalty in the Muay Thai realm) landing this summer. For some reason, just picturing him towering over everyone like a walking skyscraper got me feeling all sorts of nostalgic.
Then there’s C. Viper, sneaky agent lady with all her flashy gizmos, swooping in this autumn. I remember her from Street Fighter IV, where she was all gadgety-glam. Kind of like if James Bond met a tech-wizard in a smoky bar.
Ah, Alex. Sweet, grappling Alex is returning this winter. I don’t know about you, but tight wrestling moves under bright arena lights? Chef’s kiss, if you will. It’s the drama and those high-flying antics that get me every time.
And Ingrid, shining like the sun next spring. She’s all mysterious and powerful — kind of like that one friend who always guesses your surprise correctly but never tells you how they do it. Mysterious, right?
So, if you’re vibing with this lineup, go ahead and unlock Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition. It’s the kind of thing that might just steal your weekend hours. And let’s be honest, who needs sleep when you’re battling pixelated legends on Nintendo Switch? Just me?
Let’s wave goodbye on that note… or wait, did I miss something? Oh well, probably not. Go watch that trailer; it’s a riot.

There you have it. Like a whirlwind.
