It’s a big day for video game rumours. According to Reddit user DasVergeben, Season 3 of Street Fighter V and Season 2 of MCVI will include new fighters that are fan favourites.
In addition to the new fighters, there are also rumours of new features and mechanics to be added to both games. DasVergeben is the same person who leaked the characters in Injustice 2’s “Fighter Pack 3” a week before the announcement of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
