Capcom revealed some new looks and a new roster addition in a Street Fighter VI trailer during State of Play, giving credence to a leak that happened back in February.

Street Fighter VI showcased its improved visuals as well as a new roster addition, Jamie, who uses some style of Kung Fu that was previously not around in the game. As it turns out, it's Drunken Fist and that information has been around for months due to a leak on Reddit that happened on February 26, 2022.

Jamie is not the only character mentioned in the leak as there is a whole cast of colourful additions seen in the same thread.

The Jamie leak may still be too little in the way of proof for more wary fans but the same trailer seemingly confirmed the Italian wrestler, which can be seen on a billboard to the left, at the beginning of the trailer (0:05 time stamp).

Furthermore, Luke is observing a giant screen at 2:49 when a "new challenger" is teased, named Kimberly. Her description matches the "African-American ninja girl with an orange hoodie", so it's safe to assume the leak was correct at this point.
