Season 2 is already confirmed to start with Akuma (big balance patch) so that won’t be an announcement at Evo. The only thing they could announce are dlc characters, kind of like what they did with Kage in sfv.
Most likely, we will have the reveal of the year 2 characters during the Summer Game Fest 2024 that will be held in early June ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|thinking_face_hmm)
That is one possibility. Alternatively Capcom could announce another Capcom Showcase live event and reveal the year 2 lineup there along with the next Resident Evil game. They had one around this time last year so it’s possible they’ll do it again. There is also a PlayStation showcase rumored for this month that would be a good venue for such an announcement.
They’ll reveal it after Evo.
I’m HOPINGGGGG if we only get 4 characters next season they stagger the content better. It was painful waiting for Costume 3, and Ed. Hell we didn’t even get our two new stages until the end of S1 with the character drops. Hopefully we get more non-avatar content this upcoming season.
Mayor Cody? Hm, I think it will be a little way off yet. They should wait for the Gouki hype to die down before seeing if they can do something about our boredom.
Probably shortly after Akuma releases in game. They likely have it all lined up, trailers and all, but just don’t want to overshadow the Akuma release.
It’ll be by summer games fest, if not earlier.
I hope they announce all the fighters at once. The leaks were a blessing this time, they might not have spoiled the full pass otherwise.
I also hope we get five at the minimum. Six would be great ofc but five is a fine number.
As for when, I'd guess a random tuesday in late May or sometime in June.
Announcement 2 or 3 months then released 3 weeks after that
I did like what they did in street fighter 5 when they got silhouette of like 5 or 6 characters because I loved the guessing games loool
Season 2 announcement on the game's anniversary or a Capcom showcase. The first character trailer at Evo with the release following soon after.
I'm personally hoping for C Viper. 6 is my first SF game, and I I always thought she looked cool.
Didn't Capcom say that they wanted more female dlc fighters? If that's the case, I'd expect the season 2 roster to be majority women as this season was majority men
I'm sure we'll get something at EVO at the latest.
Earlier than that. The first character will likely be releasing around EVO in late July.
Would be sick to announce season 2 at the end of SF6 at EVO and just announce the first character is available now.

I feel like the playstation showcase would be a bit too early. But still possible if it's after akuma drops.
Gimme Makoto, Dudley, Karin, and Menat!
Fuck, that's a season right there
A guy can dream!
I hope they reveal all of them soon. I know what I'm buying before I pay for it.
I’m predicting a Third Strike character.
Bring back C.Viper.
100% this

I REALLY hope we stop getting so much avatar shit nobody cares lol we want alt costumes and more characters per season
Speak for yourself lol me and others actually like world tour and waiting on the expansion for it
A very small minority of people want avatar shit the ACTUAL fighting game players who play competitive want costumes and character changes
Sagat
Season 2 can be 1 character to me, as long as we get the mother f#$* TIGER!
Late june early jully, for a full reveal. First character released in August
August makes sense especially if they do 4 characters again. Summer release, fall release, winter and spring
Im thinking sagat, makoto, menat, and a wildcard.
I just want Sakura.
Same, I have a strong feeling she will be in season 2
Menat at evo copium
Hoping for Makoto but I wouldn't be mad to see Menat.
Makoto as the first season 2 dlc would be pretty hype
Mayor Cody? Hm, I think it will be a little way off yet. They should wait for the Gouki hype to die down before seeing if they can do something about our boredom.
I’d love Mayor Cody
Either SGF or EVO
I'm quite interested in trying Ibuki.
Probably shortly after Akuma releases in game. They likely have it all lined up, trailers and all, but just don’t want to overshadow the Akuma release. It’ll be by summer games fest, if not earlier.
June. Hopefully we get a SF3 character starting year 2/season 2. Fingers crossed for Necro to finally return. Please.
I was hoping for at least the concept arts (like we had for S1) when they release Akuma or the 3rd costumes
That would be good.

I assume sometime in the summer. Maybe at SGF or EVO?
Maybe SGF or EVO Las Vegas. They want to make sure the announcement reaches the most people possible, after all.
Announcement 2 or 3 months then released 3 weeks after that I did like what they did in street fighter 5 when they got silhouette of like 5 or 6 characters because I loved the guessing games loool
i think we're also in need for a costume 4, no?
Probably around the one year anniversary mark.
If it’s not makoto I’ll be sad, Sagat would make me smile too I suppose
ok EVERYONE SHUT UP. WE NEED VIPER NOW
I think the character will be out *by* Evo, the same way Rashid was released shortly before.
Summer Game Fest 2024 (June 7)
Season 2 announcement on the game's anniversary or a Capcom showcase. The first character trailer at Evo with the release following soon after. I'm personally hoping for C Viper. 6 is my first SF game, and I I always thought she looked cool.
I expect them to announce them fairly early, since the first season got leaked. Might want to get ahead of that this time.
I'm hoping for Dan, so he can so OP that he pisses off everybody else. But, he also ends up having Joke moves.
I hate knowing an entire year's worth of content upfront, but I can get not wanting to spend money on things you don't know about.
thinking about the next meal before sitting down to eat the one cooked
Didn't Capcom say that they wanted more female dlc fighters? If that's the case, I'd expect the season 2 roster to be majority women as this season was majority men
I want some cool characters not these snooze fests like Mika or whoever from V
Amen
Next year
Luke's brother, cousin, whatever.
Xmas
