That don't look like no Akuma to me
 
Those theory crafting about his 'fadc' are thinking of the ability and still have the sf4 mindset of it being safe or cheap, this is a brand new game with a different engine that doesn't really play like sf4.

Will be interesting to hear impressions from when people actually get to play as him.
 
Combo teasing more reveals for EVO

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2015/07/09/street-fighter-v-ken-is-back/

While the Spring 2016 release date is still a ways away, stay tuned as we’ll be making more Street Fighter V announcements very soon. Maybe as soon as… next week? J Be sure to tune into Twitch next weekend (July 17th~19th) as we hit the road for the biggest fighting game tournament in the world, EVO 2015!

V-Skill: Quick Step


Ken runs towards the opponent, closing the distance in an instant. Ken can also choose to step kick or input another attack closer to the end of his run!


V-Trigger: Heat Rush


Ken channels flames through his entire body for a short period of time, which powers up his special attacks by increasing their number of hits and improving their trajectory, allowing him to perform even more damaging combos.
 
New character looks like he's from Japan imo. The "dreads" look weird, but the face looks like your average Capcom-Shinto God design.
 
It certainly could be a new character but I dunno to me there's resemblances as much as differences. I mean Nash now has a skin graft of green on his face he never had before. It's totally possible Akuma also went to the beauty parlor as well.

Ken looks really cool all over, it's only his hair which annoys me.

And I'm much more willing to accept the theory of a kiwi rugby player.
 
Here's something else I noticed from the trailer.

I know we had seen Haggar before but not Cody and Maki and Guy.

I wonder what thats all about.

We did know about Cody, actually. But not the chick, whoever it is.

Just a fun background easter egg though.
 
a maori dude in face paint that also plays rugby/wearing rugby attire definitely sounds like classic capcom stereotype character design awfulness.

If he's a sheep herder as well in his back story then that would complete the NZ stereotype trifecta.
 
I seriously hope it's Evil T.Hawk with his Omega moveset.

I'm pretty sure that's Maki, she even has the yellow sash.
