Alex Turns Heel As 'The Man With No Allies' In Street Fighter 6 Trailer

I think I'll wait until the entire roster is released. I don't see the point in buying a DLC only to have to wait an entire year to get everything you bought. I get this is different for people active in online play, but not for me.

I hope he'll still find time to make videos for Nintendo Life between the fights.

Yeah he looks kind of terrible.
It's really weird how they messed up this character lately. He's a fan favorite they should try and pay attention to what people like about him. He never was a giant WWE brute.

And I really generally think they nailed almost everyone in 6 but Alex there? That ain't it.

Both look horrible, Alex looks super generic and lost his shredded-Tarzan looks, and menacing complexion. Even worse tho, is that I don’t know what they were thinking with making Jr Andore like that, looks worse than a Yakuza NPC from 2 gens ago…

They had him perfect (H. Andore and palette swaps for F., Jr., etc) on SF4

and even on the metro station’s poster in SF6 here he was ok:

it’s embarrassing they gave the go ahead to this, even if it was for World Tour mode:

Who the F is that monstrosity?!

Damn, poor Andore lol

@AlexOlney You're not gonna turn heel on us, are you?! 👉👈

@DashKappei he's just an NPC in World Tour mode and they based him more on his classic Final Fight look as opposed to 3 redesign, obviously he's not gonna be as detailed and overdesigned as the playable characters. It's not that deep.

I love SF6, it's my second favorite fighting game of all time.

for a second i thought the title meant Alex from nintendo life, lol

"At ease loser." Oh man, can't wait to play with Alex and I'm really liking his new look. What I don't like is that Andore's look. I know he looks like his Final Fight iteration, but the Hugo version is my preferred appearance. And yes I do know there's an entire family of Andore, so chances are the one in the trailer isn't Hugo.

Virtua Fighter turned Wolf heel, now SF is following suit by turning Alex.

Though, it's honestly kind of brilliant since every time he appears, there seems to be fan backlash.

Street Fighter is that series where I start playing the game, but fall off. The only fighting game I routinely stay interested in is Mortal Kombat. But, people say there are massive QOL improvements with this entry so I may try out that demo once and for all.

Wow when did Alex get so ripped? "Ring Fit Adventure in 2026" video soon?

@Solid_Python on the contrary, it seems it was indeed too “deep” for you since it swoooshed over your head that I had already mentioned mysel it was for WT.

We can still criticize Capcom for that eyesore, it doesn’t excuse that “design”, I guarantee many hobby modders would make a much better job even by using WT chars edit.

Overdesigned? 🤦‍♂️ It’s not based off his Final Fight looks at all, simply because they haven’t designed anything at all, lol he’s so generic that you could say it was inspired but countless characters. Having similar hair doesn’t mean it was designed as FF1. But I’d still like to read the interview where this is confirmed, if you care to share a link.

There’s nothing more embarrassing than someone acting like a smarta** and having it backfire… it’s just two lines above the pic, do better next time

Man there really is a defense force for everything… what irks me is that you could have easily said the same just without being an ***. But I guess that’s expecting too much nowadays

@mlt I mean, look at Charlie Nash. CAPCOM hated him since SFZ's days. Killing him in every game, turning him into a robot (Shadow) and Frankenstein (his SFV iteration), and turned his actions with plot significance into the dust.

Is this Alex or Ralf Jones? Seriously, for a moment I thought that was the Ikari Warrior himself.

Is the Andore here in this trailer and Hugo the same person? It’s always hard to tell. Regardless, Capcom completely buried him. 😂

@shonenjump86 This is Hugo's brother, Andore. It's their family name but also the name of that character so there's confusion. There's also an Andore Jr.

Hugo is a playable character in the series so they wouldn't use him for a cutscene mook like this.

Have to say that I hate the practice of fighting games essentially holding back characters and then paywalling them behind season passes or whatever. It’s better than doing a full rerelease like earlier street fighter games I suppose but at least those games went to the effort of changing significant parts of the game as well and may have been a necessity due to consoles not having the ability to go online to download update patches.

Anyway, old man rant over. I tend to just buy the base version of all these games, even if the complete dlc version is on sale as well.

@DashKappei wow, imagine being so emotionality distraught over a nothing bunger lol

The reason I mention World Tour is because he's an NPC in a free roam mode where you meet him for 10 seconds to beat up, yet you write up giant novels of being angry and clutching your pearls that Capcom SHOULD BE ASHAMED that a random NPC they made as a reference to Final Fight isn't overdesigned like actual playable characters. Literally who cares?

Either grow up or seek help.

@Vyacheslav333 it’s his fate to be dead before Street Fighter II.

@Bass_X0 The same for Vega (Dictator)? Every game killing him off, saying «Vega is dead.» and reviving him in the next instance?
The same for Heihachi? Yeah, different studios and IPs, but problem is the same.

we didn’t literally just seen Andore used as the antagonist of Alex’s trailer, with the same design, no folks it was all a dream. Bad faith arguments, making ***** up without backing it up when asked, all-caps quotes that I’ve never typed in my posts, reverse meltdown and ad-hominem attacks, my ignore list was hungry thanks for feeding it good 😊

@DashKappei Richard Simmons on steroids?

@LinktotheFuture omg tf you’re right and I can’t unseen it now 😂😂
