Street Fighter V: Arcade Addition keeps on adding characters to its roster and this time it's time for newcomer Falk to join the fight. Falke is making her first appearance as a playble character as she had been seen in Ed's story. As seen in the trailer, she has the ability to use Psycho Power, much like M. Bison, Ed and Rose, as she imfuses it into her staff.
Not much is known about her other than she's the latest character to have been added in the third DLC Season alongside Sagat, G, Blanka, Sakura and Cody, and she will be available on the
24th of April.
According to
CapcomUnity, this is her bio:
Falke was built to be an alternative clone for M. Bison. She was heavily experimented on by Shadaloo and was forced to train day in, day out to achieve perfection. Falke has the unique ability to infuse Psycho Power into objects and release it through them, mainly through her staff, which she named Harmony. Years of harsh training went by, causing Falke to spiral deep into despair, wishing for it all to end. Finally, Ed came to her rescue and they both were able to escape Shadaloo. Now, the two have a sibling-like bond and are searching for others like them in need of help.
Falke utilizes her staff in battle to keep opponents at range, but it also serves as her conduit for Psycho Power. By holding down any punch button, Falke can charge up and store Psycho Power until the button is released in one of three different ways:
-
Standing (Psycho Kugel) – Falke releases the Psycho Power through her staff like a shotgun
-
Air (Psycho Feder) – Falke shoots a projectile at a diagonal angle downwards from the air
-
Crouching (Psycho Kanonen) – Falke lays on the ground and shoots a projectile at the opponent’s feet. She can avoid projectiles while using Psycho Kanonen.
Falke, the Guardian Hawk, vaults into Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition on April 24! With the ability to Infuse Psycho Power into her staff, Falke keeps opponents at range before swooping in.
Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition is out now for the PlayStation 4, Windows, Linux and Arcade.
