Street Fighter 6 DLC character Yasmine launches August 3

Yasmine cuts loose to demonstrate the Filipino martial art of Eskrima.

Street Fighter 6 Year 4 downloadable content character Yasmine will launch on August 3, Capcom announced.

Here is an overview of Yasmine, via Capcom:

Hailing from the Philippines, Yasmine learned how to fight alongside her Kuya (older brother) under the guidance of her Lolo (grandfather). Following the sudden disappearance of her brother, Yasmine put down her Karambit knife until FooTube videos of a certain French supermodel inspired her to cut a path to her lost sibling. On her journey of discovery, Yasmine will use various high-speed Eskrima techniques such as:
Daloy ng Tubig – A quick forward-moving knife attack that can set-up or extend combos
Alon – A follow-up attack from Daloy ng Tubig where Yasmine lashes out with a multi-slice hit that ends differently depending upon the strength used for the attack, with successful strikes placing Yasmine in a powered-up state (Bayani Mode)
Talim ng Hangin – Yasmine spins forward in a low sweep that can either close distance with opponents or bait out their attacks based upon the strength used, with successful hits placing her in Bayani Mode
Mukha ng Langit – Yasmine leaps into a front flip that can mix up opponents with either a forward swipe or an upside-down spinning back hit
Lipad ng Agila – A multi-hit attack where Yasmine leaps into the air in a flurry of kicks
Pangil sa Likuran – A swirling projectile that lashes out at varying speeds so Yasmine can chase down and open up her opponent
Hiwa ng Kalangitan – Yasmine’s Level 1 Super Art sees her kick her opponent into the air, then slam them back down before transitioning into Bayani Mode
Nakatagong Lakas – During Yasmine’s Level 2 Super Art she focuses her energy for a limited time boost that allows her to use special moves while staying in Bayani Mode. She can also use Linya ng Liwanag during this Super Art where she dashes past an opponent and attacks them from behind.
Pamumukadkad ng Sampaguita – Yasmine’s Level 3 Super Art where she spins an opponent and gathers energy before pulverizing them in an all-out attack
Yasmine will be unlocked and ready to cut class (and her opponents) on August 3 for players who own or purchase the Year 4 Character Pass or Year 4 Ultimate Pass. Yasmine’s Outfit 1 showcases her in Eskrima combat attire, while Outfit 2 depicts Yasmine in her school uniform between bouts. Outfit 2 can be unlocked by maxing out her Acquisition Gauge in Avatar Arcade Mode or with Fighter Coins.
Yasmine is the first character to be released from the upcoming Year 4 roster including Arjun, Tifa from the Final Fantasy VII Remake series, and Bosch. Yasmine’s release will also coincide with Battle Balance adjustments for the entire Street Fighter 6 roster, so check out the Battle Change List before maintenance starts.
