February 14, 2008 - Just as we were packing up our bags in preparation for our trip tomorrow to Tokyo's outskirts for a playable sampling of Street Fighter IV, word hit that Capcom has announced a new character for the game.

The new World Warrior is Abel. Described as "a man without a past," Abel has gathered what little clues he can as he searches for remaining members of Shadoloo. As his tag line suggests, he has a terrible case of amnesia.

Check out our media section for a look at Abel, both through artwork and in-game shots.

All the characters announced so far, including the original SFII cast and newcomers Crimson Viper and Abel, will be playable in the game's demo build this Saturday at the AOU Amusement Expo. We'll be attending the event's press day on Friday (Thursday night in America) and will deliver a full report!

Ryu is blond!

EDIT: Can't stop looking... at the crotch.

 

[Kyoufu]

Thats one MASSIVE crotch.

 

[Yoboman]

Not bad. What kind of fighter is he?

 

[bud]

Thats one MASSIVE crotch.

well, he's a pretty massive guy

 

[BeEatNU]

Thats one MASSIVE crotch.

he's packing the goods

 

[kenta]

my penis let me show you it

 

[tribal24]

geese!!! what have they done to you /sarcasm

 

[dallow_bg]

Very generic looking.

Nice job!

 

[Gekkonidae]

Good simple design, if a bit generic.

 

[BobTheFork]

Not bad. What kind of fighter is he?

CrotchKiDo

 

[jarrod]

fuaxhawk? :lol

 

[vas_a_morir]

It's concept art. He reminds me of that character from Skies of Arcadia... i want to say his name was Vigoro.

 

[Mmmkay]

"You're just too good to be true..."

 

[Ploid 3.0]

Is SF4 running on Unreal3 engine by any chance?

 

[Ynos Yrros]

Not bad. What kind of fighter is he?

The "I will beat the crap out of you" kind, I guess.

 

[solid2snake]

lol, Steve from Tekken is guest character?!

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

Not bad. What kind of fighter is he?

just going by design, looks straight MMA

 

[Scribble]

And he is uncircumcised/uncut.

 

[haunts]

EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..

 

[Relix]

It's concept art. He reminds me of that character from Skies of Arcadia... i want to say his name was Vigoro.

Perfect name dude! Must be related to that crotch!

 

[Chû Totoro]

Where are his pants ?

 

[twinturbo2]

I guess this is the SF4 equivelant of Dudley, judging from the boxing gloves. This is a wild guess, of course, so I might be wrong...

 

[Rice-Eater]

Well he has a half gi with a black belt, so I'm guessing his style is some kind of Japanese martial art. Or maybe he's another shoto boy.

 

[Yoboman]

And he is uncircumcised/uncut.

*prepares for GAF circumcision debate*

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

 

[vas_a_morir]

Perfect name dude! Must be related to that crotch!

Yep.

EDIT: Lolz, Guile's face. Okay, that finally got me. This is some goofy shit.

 

[Prime crotch]

Thats one MASSIVE crotch.

New avatar found.

 

[JayDubya]

They always make retarded faces in these screencaps. >_>

 

[solid2snake]

must be german.

 

[WrikaWrek]

just going by design, looks straight MMA

That's what i was thinking too.

 

[Yoboman]

Dudley didn't kick

And we all know Dudley will be in SFIV anyway so he doesn't need an equivelant

Spoiler

believe

 

[Doc Holliday]

oops too late...looks awesome!

Oh snap, ok he looks awesome D: brute in all sense of the word.

 

[Kyoufu]

New avatar found.

Haha how fitting.

I wonder what his super is. If he got an STD that'd be some killer fireballs. lulz.

It was just a wild guess anyways...

 

[Kccitystar]

Is this the only stage that's been done? Every SF screenshot I've seen is taken from that stage

 

[Tr4nce]

Why are you all looking at the crotch? Grow up, bitches :lol

Anyway, don't know what to think of this new character... Looks a bit generic or something? I dunno...

 

[a Master Ninja]

Enough with the dudes, SF4 needs more ladies.

 

[Crushed]

His toes are like fingers.

 

[Mojovonio]

This game has to be a joke on us all.

 

[The Faceless Master]

ooh mma dude

 

[careksims]

They really need to get someone to do better character designs! We don't need another blonde.

 

[ZmillA]

nice and generic, I like it.

 

[fresquito]

I really love the graphical style of this game. I'm not sure what's been changed since it was first announced, but it looks like paintings >_<

 

[scarybore]

Very uninteresting design, me no like. The new characters that have been shown so far don't leave me much hope for other to be revealed characters.

 

[tribal24]

Enough with the dudes, SF4 needs more ladies.

sigh but if they make more ladies they are gonna look generic like that generic new girl which i dont remember her name

 

[haunts]

The new World Warrior is Abel. Described as "a man without a past," Abel has gathered what little clues he can as he searches for remaining members of Shadoloo.

wow how convenient.

 

[Scribble]

Anyway, don't know what to think of this new character... Looks a bit generic or something? I dunno...

Exactly, he looks so generic that the crotch is the part of his design that stands out. It isn't as if there's anything else about him worth looking at.

 

[vas_a_morir]

We got that one yakuza looking hipster woman and Chun Li so far, right? Chun Li looks like she would play softball.
