Instead, she will be played by Asian-American voice actress Jennie Kwan, who has extensive experience in the industry – and better represents Chun-Li’s background.

A number of tidbits have already been spotted about the upcoming fighter, including details about the game’s roster and voice cast.Īmongst the leaks, fans have spotted important changes to the game, including that Chun-Li will no longer be voiced by Laura Bailey. The roster leak arrives as part of a veritable wave of Street Fighter 6 news, with Capcom now ramping up for the game’s release in 2023. While some of these characters were included in the recent gameplay trailer, many are now being seen for the first time. This includes series-long staples like Chun-Li, Ryu, and Blanka, newer characters like Juri, Ed, and Rashid, as well as brand new challengers like Mimi, Marisa, Lilly, JP and A.K.I. The leak also reveals the number of new and returning characters, with 22 characters now assumed to be part of the starting lineup for the game. Chun-Li’s also rocking some new threads, with leggings rendering her classic outfit far more practical.Ĭammy also gets a drastic style change – she’s been given a shorter haircut and jeans, an outfit combo that stands in stark contrast to her militarised swimsuit-and-boots design that left very little to the imagination.

Akuma has also been given what can only be described as a ‘hot bear’ makeover, with his new fur outfit showing off more rippling skin than ever. While Ryu maintains his karate gi look, he’s also now looking more grizzled with a full beard and purple sash.

There are fairly major changes across the board here, with iconic characters getting makeovers.
