Sporting an outfit akin to one of her Street Fighter IV alternates, and a host of new tricks, it’s clear that while Ibuki’s core gameplay seems to be as mixup heavy as ever, she’s received a thorough redesign, compared to her nearly identical Street Fighter IV and Third Strike versions.
As exhibited in the trailer, she now has multiple kunai throws, including the ability to throw them while on the ground, as well as the addition of bombs that can lead to juggle combos. Combined with her still present Neckbreaker and Yoroi Toshi command grabs, these new tools are sure to make her a force to be reckoned with when she finally joins the fray, and it will be interesting to see how she ties in to the unfolding story of Street Fighter V.
