Oh yeah I saw that today. Holy shit, was never expecting that there'd be another Fighting Layer or Street Fighter EX. I find this especially interesting now that SFV listed all the EX characters with the new profiles and all, and now there is a new game featuring many of those characters. I do hope they hone the fighting mechanics. At least Arika isn't new to the genre so there's a chance this is going to be sweet. Maybe we'll even get a visiting character from the main SF series?

I hope not. This is supposed to be an Arika fighting game, without Ryu and co.

I would rather see Fighting Layer's characters instead.

And to clear things up, the profiles for the EX characters featured in the SFV website feature little to no retcons. All of the stuff we thought we know about the EX games were nothing but conjetures based on the little information we had.

Kid Buu, Adult Gohan & Gotenks Confirmed Playable in Dragon Ball FighterZ

I'd be surprised if there were no Fighting Layer characters, considering the name. And yeah I know that about the profiles but they are still a thing, and they are considered Street Fighter characters in the games' lore. Since Capcom already did that profile thing (with the whole "copyright by Arika" thing at the bottom) it would be nice if their co-operation would yield at least one or two visiting characters. Visiting characters in fighting games are such a common thing now that I think it'd be a missed opportunity to not throw in at least Ryu or something in a game so closely tied to Street Fighter. Would make a hell of a lot more sense than many other visiting characters we've had in gaming history.

Watch them get the X-Men and Star Wars characters. XD

Yeah, I wouldn't expect much more than just capcom characters to be honest, but I'm just glad this is becoming a thing. Always wawnted to mess around in the EX games.

So, by this you mean "I never played the EX games"?

yep. Was more of a Tekken kiddie. Didn't really touch Street Fighter until 4, and even that's been a pretty light touch.

For those out there who want to understand what the characters in Guilty Gear Accent Core Plus are saying.

EDIT: This guy also translated the special intros:

Great stuff.

Arika has released more info regarding the upcoming beta of Fighting EX Layer

A new trailer for Street Fighter 5: Arcade Edition was released.

Karin looks off in her nostalgia costume. It seems lacking in detail.
Chunner's MK-style costume is an example of "so bad it's good".
The rest look all great, specially Menat!

The gameplay trailer for Gotenks (Dragon Ball FighterZ) was released.

Not gonna lie Jockey. If both of our internet connections weren't collective dogshit, I'd be looking forward to challenging you to some FighterZ this January. :D

I'm so excited!

Me too!

Speaking of, who is gonna be your team? Assuming that I eventually manage to get my hands into the gane, my team would be Tenshinhan, Yamcha and Kuririn- and maybe a bit of Piccolo from time to time.
