Street Fighter is coming to the big screen this October for the ultimate tournament. The film has all the elements to be a hit: a dedicated fandom, a stellar cast and behind-the-scenes crew, and, based on what we’ve seen so far, the right amount of action, camp, and homage to the games. The latest trailer for Street Fighter dives into the film’s Ken vs. Ryu dynamic, from their ongoing feud to their inner wounds and future plans. And of course, we get to see our roster of fighters line up for the next World Warrior Tournament.
It is 1993, and Ryu simply wants to vibe and have peace. He was once the greatest fighter in the world, but he doesn’t feel like that’s his pathway anymore. Then, there’s Ken, who is in danger and still grappling with what it was like to live in Ryu’s massive shadow. The only way that Ryu can save Ken is to use his fists and fight, of course. I particularly love how the new Street Fighter trailer uses a remixed version of Tupac’s “Ambitionz az a Ridah” that makes the song’s lyrics fit this narrative. This version is presumably the brainchild of 50 Cent, who stars in the film as Balrog.
If you really want to get into the tournament, you can even play the Street Fighter trailer, thanks to this YouTube Playables link on Legendary’s page. Test your skills without having to put up a single quarter, and see how well you do.
What Is the Release Date for the Street Fighter Movie?
Street Fighter is coming to theaters soon on October 16, and we can’t wait to see who claims victory.
