Ditching the many evolving editions of the previous game, Street Fighter V is set to remain one single entity, with new characters to arrive as DLC in the not-to-distant future expanding on the base group of 16 combatants.
That base group features both the return of classic fighters from the 16 bit SNES days, along with a handful of newer characters. We’ll be covering all 16 with full moves lists so you can dominate in either single or multi-player modes!
For those who are new to the Street Fighter V combat system, keep in mind that the red v-meter at the top of screen is used for v-trigger and v-reversal skills, while the ex-gauge at the bottom is for special moves and the critical art finishing attack.
Note that the commands listed below assume you are facing towards the right. If you are facing left, reverse the movement in the combo. For more help with Street Fighter V, you may also want to check out:
Dhalism
Of course this incarnation of Dhalism has his signature floating style, and he also moves much slower than the rest of the hyperactive Street Fighter V fighters. Balancing out that drawback, he has some of the best defensive options and as well as devastating combos – if you can pull them off.

F.A.N.G.
This bizarre character drains health slowly over time with a poison effect rather than going for straight health loss due to connecting martial arts attacks. He also heavily utilizes the charge mechanic, which you may want to try out a few times in a practice match before taking him out for a real battle.
