Street Fighter V is getting Seth as part of the Champion Edition coming February 14, Capcom revealed during last night’s Capcom Cup finals. The Street Fighter IV villain is a genetically engineered M. Bison clone who’s able to copy other characters’ move sets. 

The Capcom Pro Tour’s upcoming Street Fighter V tournament in Hong Kong has been canceled due to “ongoing civic unrest” in the area. Any competition held at the Hong Kong Esports Festival will no longer award ranking points and Capcom has no plans to replace the canceled tournament with a new premier event.

After pulling in over 100 competitors in 2016, this weekend’s Capcom Pro Tour premier event in Jönköping, Sweden, DreamHack Summer, only saw 46 players in attendance. That enabled everyone to get points for the circuit rankings, moving them one step closer to qualifying for Capcom Cup in December.

After placing second at the Capcom Cup this year, Street Fighter superstar Daigo Umehara is donating his winnings ($60,000) to NYU’s Evo scholarship fund. Nice dude.
