Street Fighter 5 DLC Characters G and SAGAT Available August 6
By Zac Cameron ·
A reveal presentation before the Top 8 of Street Fighter 5 at EVO 2018 showcased G and Sagat and revealed they would be available to play on August 6th.
With EVO 2018 heading towards the final main event, the Street Fighter 5 Finals, Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono took to the stage to give a special presentation. Holding a small figure of Blanka in his hands, Ono talked to the crowd about the game, and how grateful he was to the fans for making Street Fighter 5, and the Street Fighter franchise, as successful as it is. With the pleasantries out of the way, Ono indicated that he had something special to show the crowd, looking deep into Blanka’s (non-existent) pockets before being interrupted by one of the new fighters in person.
As G took to the stage, he explained his motivations for battle, promising to bring power to the people before a new trailer was shown to display his power.
Once the G trailer was over, Ono once again appeared, though this time both he and Blanka had a mysterious eyepatch on. As the crowd quickly became more excited, Ono revealed that there was a second trailer, depicting Sagat in all his glory.
With the trailer displayed, a final twist on the message quickly whipped the fans into a frenzy, with the news that G and Sagat would be available tomorrow, August 6th. With two new fighters set to arrive tomorrow, Street Fighter 5 has very quickly become the game to watch at this event.
