A beer-bellied construction worker shouts while a cohort flexes, crunching his abdomen against his tight pink tanktop. Labor and Metro City infrastructure is on neither of their minds — a fight is happening in front of them as two Super Street Fighter IV specimens seek to prove their combat mettle.
The new Metro City stage is one of the several new arenas unveiled via the Capcom Unity blog this afternoon. Blue-skied and rife with titillated urban builders this level looks to be the perfect place to stage a fight. And to praise all that is Haggar.
Of major note is the African level, which features a vibrant visual style and hippos that can be knocked down. Destructoid asked Capcom’s Seth Killian what it takes to topple one of these meat-bags.
“Frankly, hippos are unpredictable,” Killian told us. “A nearby spinning pile-driver is a guaranteed anti-hippo technique, but I’ve even seen a Metsu Hadoken do the trick once in a while.”
And how does it feel when one of them fall? “Like you’re master of the universe,” Killian said jokingly.
A Korean and Indian stage, as well as a rebuilt S.I.N. Lab were revealed as well. A few of the twenty images available over at Capcom Unity are available below.
