Capcom has officially expanded the Street Fighter 6 roster, bringing veteran grappler Alex back into the spotlight.
Available now as a downloadable character, Alex makes his highly anticipated return to the globally popular franchise, further energizing the competitive landscape for fans on Nintendo Switch and all supported platforms. Street Fighter 6 first launched in June 2023, reinvigorating the series with robust mechanics, cross-platform online play, and a diverse cast of fighters.
Developed and published by Capcom, the game has seen ongoing support since its debut, maintaining a strong presence on the Nintendo eShop and ranking among the top downloaded fighting games on the Nintendo Switch.
With its dynamic updates and regular content releases, Capcom continues to deliver new reasons for fans to jump back into the fray. Alex, originally from New York, is well-known in the Street Fighter community for his unique blend of agility and grappling prowess.
His return in Street Fighter 6 was announced via a Capcom press release, which highlighted his signature fighting style and how it both rewards aggressive play and showcases his iconic suplexes and power moves.
Capcom noted that "players can expect a dynamic mix of speed and strength with Alex's move set, designed to appeal to both longtime veterans and newcomers." In addition to Alex's release, Capcom has also dropped new downloadable costumes for beloved characters Dee Jay and Elena.
These alternate outfits add a fresh layer of customization, enabling players to express their individuality as they step into the arena.
Both costume DLCs are now available for purchase through the Nintendo eShop and other digital stores. Looking ahead, Capcom confirmed that Ingrid will complete the Street Fighter 6 Season 3 roster later this year.
Ingrid, known for her unique abilities in previous series entries, will be the final new challenger for this season's content roadmap.
As development milestones continue, Capcom remains committed to supporting Street Fighter 6 with regular updates, balancing adjustments, and community-driven features. Since its release, Street Fighter 6 has garnered critical acclaim for its engaging art style, innovative battle system, and consistent post-launch support.
The game's strong sales figures and robust online presence have helped solidify its reputation as a premier fighting game title on platforms like Nintendo Switch.
