Street Fighter 6 AKI gameplay
AKI’s trailer debuted at EVO 2023 and showcased her in World Tour. We got a look at her freaky and weird persona. In World Tour, she definitely appears to be a villain.
She is described as a “maniacal poison aficionado” according to Capcom.
We also got a full gameplay trailer in August 2023 which showed off her poison abilities which many suspected she would have. She looks to be a finesse-based character, which isn’t something we see from many other characters in the game.
