Here’s Why Fans Think FF7’s Tifa Is Coming To Street Fighter 6

Here’s Why Fans Think FF7’s Tifa Is Coming To Street Fighter 6 https://ift.tt/WJQvXMG Last week, a new trailer for the upcoming Street Fighter movie celebrated the Capcom franchise's return to the live-action limelight for the first time in over 15 years. This week, it's the current game, Street Fighter 6, and rumors of its next batch of DLC fighters that has fans riled up--rumors which include Final Fantasy VII's Tifa Lockhart, which would make her Street Fighter's first-ever guest character from a non-fighting franchise.

In 2020, the pandemic led to a prospective publishing deal collapsing at the eleventh hour, which tore up the game's content roadmap.
