I'll try this out when it hits GamePass. I liked the 'Street Fighter II' back in the day and enjoyed the 4th one; but since then, Capcom's approach to fighting games as a whole has been dreadful, we'll see if the new management can get things back on track.
Over the years the 'Street Fighter' series has been able to add some characters with memorable design (Juri is really cool), however the new characters here don't really grab me, they mostly look like generic Pixar characters. But I find this series' biggest weakness has always been a lack of characters I enjoy playing. Of the fighting games I play, it's probably the worst for that. My favorite is SoulCalibur, where, even though I have several mains, I actually enjoy playing as almost all the characters.
Anyway, what I've seen so far from this is neither here nor there for me. The visuals are well realized on a technical level, but lack some of the personality I've always loved about this series. The gameplay looks fine enough.
