Pre-orders for Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition on Nintendo Switch 2 also available!
London (April 25, 2025) Let’s welcome the lighthearted, nature-loving capoeira fighter Elena, as she joins the Street Fighter™ 6 roster on June 5, 2025, across PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam! As a returning fan favourite of the series, players’ spirits will rise for Elena as she brings her unique moveset inspired by capoeira, a Brazilian martial art and dance form that blends martial arts, dance, music and acrobatics combined with the modern touches of Street Fighter 6 mechanics. Elena also brings a brand new stage, Reniala Remains, which showcases the plains of Africa at night as wildlife roam in the background, all lit by the glowing moon above. Players will need to keep up with Elena as she dances across all three game modes including World Tour, Fighting Ground, and Battle Hub.
Check out the capoeira master Elena’s Gameplay Trailer here on YouTube.
The pure-spirited Elena showcases her moves with two colourful Outfits. Outfit 1 is themed around her newest look, creating a fresh yet familiar style that emphasises both her grace and physique, while Outfit 2 is an ode to her iconic look in Street Fighter III: New Generation and Ultra Street Fighter IV. Outfit 2 can be acquired by maxing out your bond with her in World Tour or via Fighter Coins.
As seen in the trailer, Elena’s moveset uses her long legs and unpredictable movements to keep her prey in check, including:
Rhino Horn: A series of quick, forward-moving kicks that send the opponent flying back
Scratch Wheel: Known as Elena’s “dragon-punch,” this move is useful for anti-airs or for keeping opponents away
Lynx Song: Where things get wild, Elena spins forward close to the ground while invincible to projectiles and can then use four different techniques out of it, such as Leopard Snap, Harvest Circle, Mallet Smash or Lynx Whirl.
Leopard Snap: A long-reaching attack useful for closing distances
Harvest Circle: A kick that launches opponents in the air and maintains invincibility toprojectiles
Mallet Smash: An overhead kick that can low-profile
Lynx Whirl: Elena performs an additional spin to extend Lynx Song. If the aforementioned Leopard Snap, Harvest Circle, or Mallet Smash are performed after Lynx Whirl, their properties are “boosted!”
Spinning Scythe: As seen in previous iterations, perform a series of spinning kicks that can be cancelled and followed up with Leopard Snap, Harvest Circle, Mallet Smash, and Lynx Whirl, to keep up the pressure on her opponents
Moon Glider: An evasive technique where Elena steps back before performing a vertical spinning kick that sends the opponent in the air
Meteor Volley: Elena’s Level 1 Super Art that operates as an effective anti-air move and also allows for a follow-up attack.
Revival Dance: Elena’s Level 2 Super Art where she launches forward with a flurry of kicks and is invincible to all attacks on start-up. If you hold the down button, rather than dealing extra damage, Elena will do her trademark healing!
Song of the Grasslands: Elena’s Level 3 Super Art brings the power of nature to the fight as she delivers kicks with the power of the skies and plains!
Finally, a major balance patch will come to Street Fighter 6 when Elena launches, introducing changes for all of the previous 25 characters along with some broader system changes as well. Keep an eye out for the detailed patch notes as we head toward Elena’s launch!
Get ready to feel the rhythm of the earth and the whispers of the wind from the strongest capoeira master around! Elena is prepared to shake the plains up for players who own or purchase the Year 2 Character Pass, Year 2 Ultimate Pass, or Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition, or for those who purchase her with Fighter Coins. The wicked M. Bison, easygoing Terry and fiery Mai are joined by Elena to round out Year 2 of Street Fighter 6. Stay tuned for more details!
The Street Fighter 6 Years 1-2 Fighters Edition will be available on June 5, 2025, across all platforms including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam, and the new Nintendo Switch 2, with pre-orders for the Nintendo Switch 2 version now available!

Two inmates sentenced to death row trade their life sentences for a literal journey of a lifetime: lending their remaining years to investigating faraway planets. The mission takes a catastrophic turn when their ship crashlands on an unknown planet and they encounter a mysterious creature, shifting their realities in an instant.
Can the pair hatch an escape plan and return to Earth in one piece? While both astronauts occupy the same space, each can only interact with certain artifacts around them. Use voice chat to communicate each player’s discrete surroundings. Split up to solve individual pieces of team-based puzzles, and call out mysterious markings to clue in on the path forward. Wait a minute…why is the other convict acting so suspiciously?
Is escaping together the only goal? While the original BOKURA put communication and teamwork to the test, BOKURA: planet throws a monkeywrench into the duo’s escape plans by giving each felon their own agenda, which must be hidden from the other at all costs.
Successfully escaping the strange planet requires both cooperation and subterfuge. Experience the tension of deception and questionable behaviors as both players aim to accomplish secret objectives. Watch your back as the new “push” action allows players to shove each other off cliffs and into deadly electric barriers.
To celebrate launch, Koji Kumeta, creator of the manga series “Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei,” has created new key art for the game. The illustration echoes BOKURA: planet’s themes:, each character hides something from the other, yet they’re connected by a single drawn line wrapping all the way around the planet.
“While BOKURA’s gameplay experience was based on trust, BOKURA: planet is based on the complete opposite — a lack of trust,” said tokoronyori, creator of BOKURA: planet. “Confrontational moments exist throughout the experience, and we can’t wait for teams to try their best to get their way through deception…or through brute force!”
BOKURA: planet takes off on PC via Steam today for $5.49 with a special 10% sale until Monday, May 5th, 2025. Language support options include English, Japanese, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Korean, French, Italian, German, and Spanish (Spain).
Known for his unusual visual creations, distinctive world-building and deeply emotional stories within his games, tokoronyori first introduced his peculiar style with Farewell Planet, a game filled with mysteries where robots believe they are human.
Tokoronyori creates memorable gaming experiences by incorporating specific mechanics only gaming can bring. BOKURA is published as part of the Kodansha Game Creator’s Lab project.
