While she’s not an official addition toStreet Fighter 5’s roster, a fan of both Capcom’s fighting game and of Nintendo’sMetroidfranchise has now created a new mod that adds Samus Aran in her Zero Suit to the PC version of the former title’s cast of brawlers. The creation comes courtesy of the modder Khaledantar666, who usedStreet Fighter 5’s Cammy as the base model, and the results are quite impressive.
As seen in the video forStreet Fighter 5’s unofficial new fighter below, Zero Suit Samus retains all of the same combos and abilities in Cammy’s move-set, including her super moves.The Zero Suit Samus mod comes available in two different forms, one with containing all of her gear, and one without.
Although most members of the modding community–including those who create mods forStreet Fighter 5–offer their creations for free, Khaledantar666 has theZero Suit Samusmod walled behind a Patreon account. With that being the case, those who want to add Samus into the PC version of Capcom’s fighting game will need to visit the link found at the bottom of the article to determine what they will need to pay and how to download the mod.
Of course, thisStreet Fighter 5mod doesn’t denote Samus Aran’s first appearance in a fighting game. As many Nintendo fans will surely recall, this particular version of theMetroidcharacter has been featured in the Big N’s fighting titleSuper Smash Bros.on the Wii U.
Should Khaledantar666’s Zero Suit Samus mod not scratch a certain crossover itchStreet Fighter 5fans are looking for, then they’re in luck, as there are a plethora of mods that add characters from other video game franchises in to the Capcom fighting game. For instance, there are loads ofOverwatchmodsthat add heroes from Blizzard’s team-based first-person shooter into the game, such as Tracer, Sombra, and even Roadhog. Considering the popularity of these mods, maybe one day they will signal an official crossover fighting release that exclusively has Capcom and Blizzard characters.
Street Fighter 5is out now for PC and PlayStation 4.
