'Street Fighter V' (ALL) Adding Kolin This Month - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Feb. 10, 2017 @ 12:24 a.m. PST

Street Fighter V is the latest installment in the fighting franchise, adding new fighters, several new locations, and cross-platform play.

The legendary fighting franchise returns with Street Fighter V ! Powered by Unreal Engine 4 technology, stunning visuals depict the next generation of World Warriors in unprecedented detail, while exciting and accessible battle mechanics deliver endless fighting fun that both beginners and veterans can enjoy. Challenge friends online, or compete for fame and glory on the Capcom Pro Tour.

Kolin, the phantasm of snow and ice, is the next character to join Street Fighter V as part of the Season 2 Character Pass. Excelling in the Russian martial art of Systema, Kolin (rhymes with ‘Jolene’) gives her opponents the cold shoulder by using their momentum against them to execute various slash-like attacks and knife hand strikes. Having been bestowed with the power of ice, her fight style is augmented with frigid blasts and deadly icicles that can freeze the heart of even the most hot-blooded street fighter. 

Kick some ice as Kolin when she joins the fight on the 28th February.

The Street Fighter V Season 2 Character Pass is now available for £24.99/€29.99/$29.99 and will grant pass holders with Akuma, Kolin and an additional 4 brand new fighters to be announced later this year. The pass comes with Premium Battle Costumes with colours 3-10 unlocked and default costume colors 3-10 for each character. Additionally, Season 2 Character Pass holders receive an exclusive PS4 theme.
