Fans and gamers were treated with chunks of information regarding "Street Fighter 5." Sony and Capcom made an announcement earlier about the latest fighting game that would release an online beta in PS4 and PC.

The announcement was centered on the online beta of "Street Fighter 5," which could be retrieved by gamers who would pre-order the upcoming fighting game. The online beta would also be "the largest and most ambitious online beta" yet as claimed by the developers. However, the online beta would only be available in North America for the time being. Also, Capcom has remained quiet when the online beta would kick in considering that the game was only 20% completed.

Meanwhile, reports about having a limited number of fighters have been spreading, but this would not mean that there won't be a few surprises. For instance, the latest teaser released by the developers revealed the return of a character from "Street Fighter 2" and "Street Fighter Alpha" in the upcoming "Street Fighter 5."

Charlie Nash would rejoining other Street Fighter characters like Ryu and Chun-Li, as seen in the teaser, in "Street Fighter 5." Nash was one of the favorite characters in previous "Street Fighter" titles. In a community blog, the game's publishers even noted that "Nash's return shows that his story is far from over." They add that " while the mysteries surrounding his return will become later on, for now we are pleased to announce that the originator of the Sonic Boom."

Many considered Nash as long dead, but it seemed that some patch work was done on him based on the teaser. Also, it seemed that Nash would be having a few tricks hidden on his sleeves that would be fully unraveled upon the released of "Street Fighter 5."

But that not the only surprise from the teaser; at the end of the video another image could be seen among the lightning bolts. Fans believed that this could be M Bison. However, this too can only be confirmed when "Street Fighter 5" would be released.
