Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition - Kage Reveal | PS4

Kage, the Embodiment of Satsui, is now available in Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition as the newest character to begin the next season! Kage, meaning “shadow” in Japanese, is the physical embodiment of the Satsui no Hado, an evil force rooted in humanity’s obsession with power.

Kage means "Shadow" in Japanese.
We might as well call him *Shadow Ryu* now.

[elmohead]

Ryu, gamer edition. comes with RGB lighting all over his body.

[muna]

Are we just going to ignore how badass his raging demon finisher is😭

[axetwin]

SAGAT: You do not have the strength to crush the spirit of the King!






...Kage proceeds to crush the spirit of the King...

[cawhite]

Ryu possessed by the spirit of advertising

[Aaroncfx]

Daigo Umehara: This does put a smile on my face

[jumanjicostco]

I realized SF is the only one not trying to sell out with cross-over characters. But if they're ever planning to, they should officially add Asura from Asura's Wrath

[VictorHernandez-jzii]

Can you feel it?
Daigo's power is rising...

[Monocheto]

"You dont have the strength to crush the spirit of the king" *proceeds to do a crush counter

[m.muradbasic]

We know that Ryu actually managed to finally beat the Hadou in himself and manage to control the power of nothingness.

With that, Evil Ryu is not existing anymore, but Kage does.
Now i feel like Kage could be what Shadow Jago or Omen are to Jago. Jago beat the evil within him, but that Evil didn‘t vanish, it just manifested into a seperate entity.

I believe Kage is *NOT* Evil Ryu, but the Satsui no Hado escaped Ryu‘s body and manifested itself into Kage.

Whoever is reading this I hope you get rich

[experimento]

So they changed the name from Evil Ryu to this

[andrewnathan]

So after reading, this isn't exactly Evil Ryu in the flesh, rather it is the physical entity that took his own form that turns Ryu into Evil like Buddy Love separated from Sherman Klump in Nutty Professor II

[Forenzikproductions]

I like the old hand drawn Street Fighter art style, looks so much better...

[Countdownsmiles]

I'm actually really impressed by this. The theme was baller and he actually seems to have the long, flashy combos I always felt Street Fighter lacked

[ZTheTinyTonTerror]

"Kage (カゲ(影) Kage?, "Shadow", "Shade", "Other side", pronounced as "KA-gé") is a character introduced in the fourth season of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition. He is the physical manifestation of Evil Ryu after Ryu purged him and the Satsui no Hado from his essence, who is seeking to defeat his other half as revenge."

That should clear things up a bit.

[bamlyolo]

Sagat: you do not have the strength to crush the spirit of the king
Kage: *do a crush counter
:^) ok

[KamiKoroshi_]

Evil Ryu will always be number 1 in my book. My favorite SF character.

[rc-seigneurdujaaj]

Evil Ryu -> Kage
Shin Akuma -> Oni

[shadowronin]
