Here’s a gameplay trailer for new fighter Gill from Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike:
Gill, a master of both pyrokinesis and cryokinesis, is able to control fire and ice with perfect elemental balance (hence his outward appearance). Typically plotting behind the scenes, he is now ready to reveal himself to the world, as he sets out to fulfill the prophecy that the Secret Society has coveted since ancient times.
Gill will arrive to Street Fighter V: Champion Edition in December 2019. A second character was also announced for the new version but has yet to be revealed.
Street Fighter V: Champion Edition releases for PlayStation 4 and PC on February 14, 2020.
