Following the release of a brand new teaser trailer that provided a sneak peek of a brand new character coming to Capcom's highly popular fighting video game "Street Fighter 5," the company has now unveiled a brand new downloadable content (DLC) stage that players of the game can now access.
The brand new stage — which is somewhat tied to the game's new character Rashid — features a constantly moving background that should be an interesting vista for epic battles. The brand new stage — called "Skies of Honor" — is set on the wings of an airborne airplane flying around a city. Two fighters will be duking it out on the different sides of the wings as the plane itself tries to avoid different obstacles.
Some reports had cited that due to the game's dynamic-styled background, the stage may be banned from high-profile tournaments as the moving background does prove to be a bit of a distraction. The new stage will likely follow the fate of the "Kanzuki Beach" stage, which is also not used in any tournaments.
The stage also showcases brand new music that some fans have pointed out to contain different elements from Rashid's own theme music. Capcom also released a brand new trailer showing the new stage with Zangief and Rashid walking around it.
Fortunately, players apparently can't fall off the stage which is a good things as it would certainly spell certain death if they do. Players of the game can now access the new "Skies of Honor" stage by getting it for 70,000 of the game's in-game currency called Fight Money or by outright purchasing it for $3.99.
As for the aforementioned brand new character, Capcom had recently revealed that Akuma was going to be added as the game's latest DLC character during the recently held 2016 Red Bull Battleground Tournament at the Seattle Center Exhibition Hall.
The company released a trailer revealing Akuma and a brand new accompanying stage. The video revealed that Akuma will be playable during the upcoming 2016 PlayStation Experience where the Capcom Cup will be held.
