A New Challenger Approaches: The Return of Ingrid in Street Fighter 6
Get ready for Ingrid's grand comeback! The latest character to join the roster of Street Fighter 6 is none other than Ingrid, a beloved character who first appeared in 2004's CAPCOM FIGHTING Jam and later in Street Fighter Zero 3↑↑. With her long-awaited entrance, fans can finally enjoy her dynamic gameplay starting May 28!
Ingrid's Diverse Moveset
Ingrid is not just another fighter; she brings a unique set of skills to the battlefield that capitalize on her special powers. One of her primary moves is the "Sun Shoot," a dazzling projectile attack. When executed, it fires a light orb that travels forward after a brief pause. Depending on the button pressed and charge time, both speed and angle can be adjusted. There’s also the OD (Overdrive) version, amplifying hit count and power, creating an impressive visual display on screen!
Firing More Than Just Light
If you're looking for a more aggressive attack, try the "Sun Flare." This move sends forth a beam of light. But before diving into that, let's discuss Ingrid's source of power—the "Sun Symbol." Ingrid can stock up to four Sun Symbols, enhancing her abilities considerably. Using a weak Sun Flare allows her to pose adorably while simultaneously charging a Sun Symbol. Holding down the button speeds up the charging process.
A Show of Power
These stocked Sun Symbols can enhance the hit count, range, and follow-up potential of both the strong version and OD version of the Sun Flare move, showcasing the true strength of a fully-loaded Ingrid!
Ingrid’s move set includes the “Solar Flare,” a downward energy beam attack, which, similar to Sun Flare, allows her to gather Sun Symbols while in the air. This contrasts with her ground-based moves, where the symbols are consumed for more powerful strikes!
Familiar Moves, New Twists
The "Sunrise," which fans of the series will recognize, is a graceful spinning attack. The weak version doubles as an excellent anti-air move, while the medium version can link from weaker attacks for combo opportunities. The strong version requires a bit of finesse to execute but allows for follow-up attacks like the Solar Flare! The OD version can be used without fear of retaliation, making it user-friendly during exchanges.
Ingrid also possesses the "Sun Veil," a counter move that negates attacks aimed at her, sending foes flying backward. Though capable of absorbing projectiles, care must be taken as it cannot block high-hitcount moves and super arts. The OD version executes more swiftly, proving handy in recovering after being knocked down.
Show-Stopping Super Arts
The finale of Ingrid's moves is the “Sun Vanish,” a bold teleportation technique that surprises opponents. Inputting forward makes her appear directly in front of her enemy for a swift kick, whereas downward input moves her overhead for a dropping attack. It’s versatile, allowing players to choose between aggression and defense, showcasing personal playstyles!
For Ingrid’s super arts:
- - Level 1: Sunshine—an unbelievable series of kicks that starts with invincibility against incoming attacks. Players can enhance this move by consuming a Sun Symbol for a powerful follow-up, encasing the opponent in a dazzling ribbon!
- - Level 2: Sun Order—this move sends forth bountiful beams of light that drop dynamically based on input strength. Holding the button during the move allows for an upgrade if Ingrid has stock!
- - Level 3: Cosmic Ray—the ultimate attack! It sends an automatic projectile from Ingrid’s position to strike her foes. One hit will let players witness the full power of Ingrid!
Character Customization and Availability
Ingrid’s alternate outfit features her iconic purple sailor uniform from her debut, available through deepening bonds during the World Tour mode or purchasable via Fighter Coins.
Players can buy Ingrid directly with Fighter Coins, while Year 3 Ultimate Pass and Character Pass owners will unlock Ingrid on May 28. All outfits for the additional characters included in the Year 3 Ultimate Pass will also be released simultaneously.
As we count down to Ingrid’s arrival, make sure to warm up and prepare for some thrilling matches online. See you on the battlefield!
