Before the final rounds of Ultra Street Fighter IV dawned upon us, Capcom took to the stage to announce the first of four brand spanking new characters appearing in the upcoming title.

Players, meet Necalli. He's a dreadlocked warrior who possesses "a wide variety of savage and close range attacks, all of Necalli's moves have been forged through the heat of battle to ensure he's inflicting maximum pain upon his opponents."

On the topic of new mechanics, Necalli's V-Skill has him punching the ground with both fists to create a powerful, damaging explosion. His V-Trigger alters his personality and changes his hair colour for a limited amount of time as he channels mysterious energy.

If you missed the EVO news yesterday, Capcom went on the record with their plans for the future of the Street Fighter franchise. Street Fighter V will arrive in April next year on PC and PlayStation 4.
