Capcom has officially announced that Elena, the beloved Capoeira master, will make her debut in Street Fighter 6 on June 5, 2025. This marks her return as the fourth and final downloadable content (DLC) character for the game’s second year.

Elena first entered the world of Street Fighter in the 1997 title, Street Fighter III: New Generation. Known for her unique fighting style and vibrant personality, she later featured in titles such as Ultra Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter x Tekken. Notably, however, she was absent from the roster of Street Fighter V, making her comeback all the more significant for fans of the series.

Year 2 Content Flow and Character Releases
The conclusion of Year 2’s DLC roster with Elena highlights Capcom’s strategic approach to character releases.

This was followed by the introduction of SNK’s Terry Bogard in September 2024 and Mai Shiranui in February 2025, showcasing a diverse range of fighting styles and fan favorites.

On June 5, 2025, Elena will be available as a DLC character across all console and PC platforms for Street Fighter 6.
