Summary
Tifa Lockhart will become a playable Street Fighter 6 character in the game's Year 4 lineup, giving the Final Fantasy VII heroine her first official appearance in a third-party AAA fighting game.
Capcom unveiled four Year 4 additions on June 6 — Elena, Arjun, Bosch and Tifa — with Tifa drawing the most attention as a long-requested guest fighter.
Her appeal comes from a martial-arts-based, heavy-hitting style, and fans are already watching for how signature Final Fantasy VII moves such as Unbridled Strength and Meteor Strike are adapted.
The rollout is scheduled to begin in 2027, extending Street Fighter 6's crossover push after earlier Final Fantasy fighting-game appearances focused on protagonists like Noctis and Clive rather than Tifa.
