Capcom's attendance during the recently held 2016 Tokyo Game Show was filled with surprises for fans, which included the official announcement of a brand new DLC (downloadable content) character and a new mode for their highly popular fighting video game, "Street Fighter 5."

The DLC expansion pack that will contain both the new character and the new mode is expected to arrive today.

The latest DLC character to be added to the highly popular game is Gill's brother Urien. The character first debuted on the series in "Street Fighter 3: 2nd Impact." He later reappeared in the sequel "Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike." His back story within the current games apparently still features his continued quest to take over the terrorist group calling themselves the "Illuminati" and to put an end to Shadaloo.

As for his appearance, he will be featured in the game wearing a pinstriped suit along with a purple button-down shirt. During the fights, however, the character does not take off his suit like in "Street Fighter 3." Urien also still dons his signature look which includes bronze skin, metallic white hair, and a blue gem on his forehead.

The character's movement set, on the other hand, has completely been reworked. Urien now has several moves such as his signature Aegis Reflector, now assigned as his V-Trigger. The skill is also accompanied by his other special moves like his V-Skill ability called "Metallic Aura" and his special attack move called "Dominate Crush."

Along with the character, the DLC will also include a new "Vs CPU" mode, which is basically what it sounds like. "Vs CPU" mode allows players to fight against an AI controlled opponent.

The DLC — which also includes addition colors and battle costumes — is scheduled to be released today, Sept. 22, and will be available for the PS4 and the PC.
