After teasing an upcoming collaboration recently, Capcom has now revealed a special collaboration between Monster Hunter Wilds and Street Fighter 6. Akuma will be added to the game on May 28, alongside a Blanka-Chan outfit for your Palico.
While Akuma and Blanka-Chan will be free for all players, you’ll also have the option of adding Chun-Li and Cammy outfits to your MH Wilds experience as paid DLC on the same date. There are also brief teasers of weapon charms and emotes featuring various Street Fighter characters.
The Akuma full armor set will turn your character into the combat demon. In a trailer revealing the collaboration, Street Fighter-style graphics and narration can be heard, and although we’re not certain that this will appear if you fell a monster as Akuma, it would be a great touch for fans of the franchise.
Akuma can also be seen competing in the game’s arm-wrestling tournaments and traversing the environment while yelling in his recognizable aggressive tone.
Alongside the Street Fighter collaboration on May 28, Monster Hunter Wilds will also see an additional tempered monster with other gameplay adjustments as part of update 1.011. Later in the summer, Capcom plans to add another seasonal Festival of Accord event and further additional monsters to the game.
