If the rumors regarding Street Fighter VI‘s roster are true, that obsession may have finally caught up with him… Sagat His rivalry with Ryu keeps him going and pushes him to keep up with his BFF. Ken has a business and a family to focus on, so he’s more of a “weekend warrior” in comparison. While Ken is devoted to his fighting lifestyle, he can’t match Ryu’s dedication. So if you’ve ever wondered how one man can get on the bad side of characters from the worlds of Street Fighter, Marvel, Tekken, and more, here’s a better look at Ryu’s many multiverse rivalries. See, because Capcom loves fighting game crossovers, and because Ryu is almost always one of Street Fighter‘s “ambassadors,” Ryu has crossed paths with many opponents across the multiverse over the years. Mind you, I don’t just mean that Ryu is that classic kind of World Warrior who gets into fights in every country. Ryu has friends, and he is a genuinely good person, but his role as protagonist and hero comes less from altruism and more from bad guys going out of their way to antagonize him.Īs one of the faces of one of the biggest fighting game series in the world, Ryu tends to get around. Fighting gives him purpose and helps him find meaning. You could be out to kill him or out to give him a friendly spar, and Ryu will fight you all the same. All the while, a Turkish grappler travels the world in hopes of figuring out the perfect cooking oil.Īt the center of it all is Ryu: a wandering martial artist who dedicates his life to fighting anyone and everyone interested in going a few rounds with him. A ridiculous martial artist in pink keeps trying to prove he’s a legend (despite getting beaten into traction day after day), just as a gruff mechanic beats up an all-powerful cult leader. Government agents are trying to stop a supervillain from world domination, while an Andre the Giant pastiche is trying to find the perfect tag team partner.

There’s a lot going on in the wild world of Street Fighter lore.
