In total, there are 17 character posters, giving us the best looks yet at characters like Akuma, Ryu, Ken, Blanka, M. Bison, Guile, Cammy, Chun-Li, and Zangeif, just to name a few. While all of these characters are present in the trailer, the posters allow you to see many of the details in both their costumes and their likenesses to the video games, and some of them are truly wild.
The two that stand out immediately are Blanka and Zangeif, and this is actually the first look at Jason Momoa as Blanka, as he was not present in the first footage. So far, he looks incredibly accurate to the games, and while a major part of this character working on the screen is tied to how he moves and interacts with the other fighters, including his iconic attacks, the core look is very much intact. As for Olivier Richters’ Zangeif, he is ridiculously imposing even in the poster, let alone the footage, and is every bit the looming threat he is in the games.
Other standouts include Andrew Schulz as Dan, Cody Rhodes as Guile, Mel Jarnson as Cammy, Vidyut Jammwal as Dhalsim, and David Dastmalchian as M. Bison. Some are going to clash on whether they like the looks, but in most cases, these feel pulled right out of the video games, and I’m definitely excited to see more of the battles after that impressive first footage.
