The stars of next year’s video game adaptation Street Fighter took to The Game Awards at Los Angeles’ Peacock Theatre in the last 24 hours to surprise the audience with both an exclusive sneak peak at the film, as well as unveiling the posters for each of the 17 iconic characters that will be featured.
Directed by Kitao Sakurai (TV’s Twisted Metal), Street Fighter is set to bring the battle from the arcade to the big screen with Hadoukens, roundhouses, and all your favorite characters.
