Street Fighter 5's newest character is a Brazilian woman

Street Fighter 5's next character appears to be an all-new fighter, a Brazilian by the name of Laura, according to what looks like a premature release on Famitsu.com.

Several screenshots of Laura, since removed from the site, apparently were mixed in with images of Zangief, whose return was announced on Thursday. Laura appears to employ electrical powers in her fighting style.

The screenshot above was lifted from Famitsu before it was taken down. The Japanese website Shukan Umejin has more.

Street Fighter 5 comes to PlayStation 4 and Windows PC in 2016. If you're playing on PC, check out the minimum and optimal hardware specs here.
