Street Fighter 6 has been a smash hit for Capcom, and the Japanese gaming giant is already hard at work on post-launch content for the same. It was previously announced that franchise favourite character Akuma would be coming to the game as a playable character. The developer also released the main theme for Akuma- check it out down below.

Spanning just over 4 minutes, Akuma’s theme definitely sounds great with a heavy tone and fast beats that feel appropriate for this character. Capcom also released a trailer showcasing Akuma’s moveset, and fans are more than excited to step back into his shoes once again.

Akuma will be available in Street Fighter 6 from May 22, and his arrival will be accompanied by a balance patch that should help in alleviating some minor concerns with the current status of the game. The team already has plans for Year 2 content for Street Fighter 6– read more on that through here.
