After unveiling information about "Street Fighter V" at last month's Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015, game company Capcom seems to be preparing to reveal more details about the soon-to-be released video game at the San Diego Comic-Con 2015 this week.
Game producer Yoshinori Ono informed his Twitter followers Sunday that they are already gearing up for the multi-genre entertainment convention, and they will be bringing the green mutant Blanka with them. Based on Ono's Twitter post, Blanka has "something" in his pocket.
Ono did not mention what the reveal will be all about, but the official SDCC website says that Ono will be joined by Capcom's Francis Mao and a panel of "Street Fighter" experts on Thursday, July 9, to talk about "Street Fighter V." The panel presentation will be held at Room 6BCF at exactly 11:45 a.m.
Capcom is expected to discuss the ways of becoming famous and earning more money by joining the Capcom Pro Tour by the end of the Capcom Cup Finals in late 2015, as well as showcase the first official "Street Fighter V" merchandise.

— Yoshinori Ono (@Yoshi_OnoChin) July 5, 2015 " data-caption="null" data-credit="null">Earlier, the game developer revealed that "Street Fighter V" will use the Unreal Engine 4 for its cross-platform gameplay. The new installment in the legendary fighting game series will also introduce a brand-new feature called the V-Gauge in which the player will get three new techniques after receiving attacks.
The new techniques include V-Skills, which is described as free-to-use actions that vary according to the character. The only thing consistent about this technique is that it could build up a player's V-Gauge with every successful use. There is also the V-Reversals or the Alpha Counters, which can be used to break away from a block stun from an opponent, as well as the V-Trigger that can be utilized once the player's V-Gauge becomes full.
Aside from Blanka, some of the other "Street Fighter V" characters include Chun-Li, Ryu, Nash, M. Bison, Cammy, and Birdie.
Capcom is expected to release "Street Fighter V" in early 2016.
