Akuma is finally here. I'm so excited.!
I honestly thought I wouldn't see him again for another year, minimum.

He has been my main for a long time and I was utterly devastated when he wasn't announced for SFV. This is a wonderful early holiday present. Thank you CAPCOM and please when you have time, add a functionality to filter your matchmaking by COUNTRY, I'm tired of matching with people in Japan while I Iive in the UK.

Happy holidays and good luck to everyone in the new year! : )

Is it fair that we must pay for another year of characters when every other games season pass is for at least 2 years. The answer is NO Way.
Did I buy it, yes unfortuantely.
What makes it worse is the fact that you have openly said that Street Fighter Five will be supported up until the end of 2020. That means a new season pass will be pushed out every year. Meaning if you want the full cast of characters in 2020 you will have spent £125 GBP not including the price of the base game.
Capcom you are getting very greedy for money. Especially when you make us pay for holiday costumes and "premuim costumes" with our real money and not fight money,
As a long time Street Fighter fan I am severely dissapointed that you have done this.

Look at akuma! Look at him! Now tell me you don't want to use his raging demon to blow up those pesky rage quiters! (Now with extra chance on a rage quit with akuma.)

Alright so I'm going to be completely honest,

TLDR; If you're still going to be playing the game until it dies, like the game, or competitive in the game; it's simple yes, get it. If not, then don't.

I like the game so what ever I bought the pass, I did not however buy the s1 pass.
Reason being was because hey you can earn everything for free with FM right? (in game currency) I did and got every s1 character and all the cool stages with FM.

However this time around it's a complete grind fest for FM and pretty much forces some to buy the s2 pass if you really want FM for characters (stages still need to be bought with FM).

6 all new characters huh? God I hope they're good, I don't even know if I should thumbs up or down yo. Can I like press them both and make it an indifference?

A lot of people are saying its too greedy. But you don't have to buy these. If you go through all the story mode thats 2 charcters right there you can buy. You really only buy this if you know you want all the upcoming characters. And I don't see whats wrong with that. Yes it would be better if the characters were all just free but its not that big of a deal imo. Don't forget that this game is made for the hardcore competetive players. And they are probably not gonna buy new characters because they already have a main. So its not as important to them. But the casuals do exsist and honestly, just dont buy the pass if you only want like a couple dlc characters. I think the characters passes are a good thing because it gives you the characters and premium costumes.

Comes with Characters, default + "battle" costumes and all their colors.

If you play regularly, why not?

Or you could grind, I'm not your dad.

Can't wait to see what the 5 other characters are! Just got first pass for only $15 because i waited! Figured since i got the first one for such a steal id pick this one up now and not be stuborn like i was with the first.

$30 Season Pass gets you
All the 6 characters for this year ($6 each without the pass or alot of ingame fight money)
$4 battle costumes for each new character (these arent obtainable with the in game currency)
Also no 3-10 Colors which i think go for $5 for all (but it's buyable with fight money)
So if i didnt buy the $30 Season pass id have to buy $36 JUST for the characters
I wouldnt get the $24 Worth of new skins
All the 3-10 colors for all those skins.
So that comes out to be $65 worth of content for $30.
Thats why i bought this pass.

Your value for what you get with this depends on how committed you are to the game.

If you're so dedicated that you'll play SF5 non-stop, you might be able to skip this and just get all your new fighters with fight money (This is what I did for season 1)

If you enjoy the game but mainly want to play however you want without grinding (currently where I'm at) then I'd say this is worth getting if you like the idea of new characters, personally I'm optimistic that capcom will deliver with the characters.

And obviously don't get this if you're not very interested in playing the game continuously (this is a pretty common rule when it comes to committing to a season pass). I also think it's worth mentioning the fact that some people are giving this a negative review solely based on the pricing in relation to the amount of content you recieve.

For those who wanted more you clearly should have taken a better look at the description for the product. For those who just think it's a bit pricey then it's up to your discretion to if you want to dive in and get the new characters. It is definitley possible to just get the characters you're interested in with fight money, it is given quite generously with the single player content (not so much for multiplayer) and each new character you recieve is more opportunities to earn additional fight money (Character Story, Surival, Trials, etc).

If you made it to the end of this review I would like to thank you and I hope it helped your purchasing decision and I would like to wish a merry christmas to those who are reading on Christmas.

I keep supporting this trash game with real money purchases so we can play it when it's good by season 5. You're welcome.

Would I recommend other people buy this season pass? Is that a joke? You don't need to own all characters unless you're trying (and able) to get really good, so no, 90%+ of the playerbase don't need to keep buying these garbage season passes containing horrible DLC costumes (still waiting for the first one that doesn't look like a mongoloid on meth designed it via diarrhea sharts) and largely underwhelming characters.

I would say that the price is waaaay to high for just a few characters.
But Akuma = BAE
So its OKAY!

If you are someone tha likes contet, and want to have all the characters immediately then this is for you.
Buying the caharcter pass allows you to save all that fight money you grinded for to buy story costumes and extra stages.
While it's not cheap it's still a good deal.

I'm now in $60 for two season passes pacing toward a whopping $150 on top of the base-game price assuming the 2020 support end date.

The tricky part is deciding between using FM and buying the season pass. If you use your FM on, say, Akuma then decide you want the season pass you'll pay full price for 5 fighters and will not be reimbursed the FM. Not knowing the additional characters you're paying for is a drag, but I do like the idea of looking forward to reveals.

Where I start to really get rubbed the wrong way is that I play the game a ton and earn plenty of fight money. I elect to buy the characters to use the FM on stages and costumes. However, I'm now sitting on ample FM and I still have to decide b/t spending MORE $$ or not having the one costume I want because it is premium - not accessible with in-game money.

I don't think any costumes should be inaccessible with fight money because if someone wants all the content they'll likely have to buy season passes and/or content piecemeal unless they're monsters at grinding fight money. If I farm enough FM before season 3 the decision will be to use my FM on characters and maybe then buy a "premium" costume. Just seems silly to be a baller with in-game currency after pumping money into character passes and not be able to use it on the content you want.

Why the thumbs up? Akuma has been a fun Shoto and the package is a good value when you look at the piecemeal cost knowing a "premium" costume is included. Buying the passes has also freed up FM for me to have all the stages and the non-premium costumes I want.

the character pass is pretty good for the most part and its "character pass" and not "season pass" while it may be misleading it gives what it says it will give that being not bringing the stages

BUT
-its a bit pricey
-it does'nt includ the akuma stage KNOW WAIT i know what i said about the stages but this is different because its not just one stage its his stage YOU SHOULD HAVE HIS OWN FUNKING STAGE ARE YOU KIDDING ME

CAPCOM you made my childhood dont ruin it with your greedness leave that to the jews

-You can buy characters with fight money so I don't understand why everyone is bitching. If you want em fast then buy the pass, if you don't then don't buy the pass.

Gotta give this a point for introducing new original characters (Kolin so far). I know a lot of us Street Fighter fans would love to see the classic fighters in the roster (which is still a possibility in further seasons, hopefully) but so far I am personally enjoying playing Kolin and especially Akuma being back at the roster is another plus for this pass. Definitely reccomend this is you have some spare change and want to save your fight money elsewhere otherwise Akuma and Kolin are great characters so far. Let's hope the other fighters coming this season can live to the rep.

So far they've done a good job on the season 2 characters adding a bit more depth and for me they've all been fun to learn and play.

Please be advised that this is a CHARACTER PASS, not a SEASON PASS. Don't make my mistake. No stages, just the specified characters with their "premium" costumes, but NOT including any other costumes they might release for said characters.

In all honesty, a very dissapointing purchase on my end, and there's no guarantee that I might even get a character I like for this pass.

Just wait for the inevitable re-work/expansion and grab it when it eventually goes on sale with all the characters next year. Trust me, you're not missing out.

Did you play Street Fighter 2 as a kid and never get to pick Akuma? Well now you can. It also comes with 5 other fighters, battle outfits and more free color choices. Great package.

I found this pack to be disappointing, but if you're looking for more variation in SF this is the pack for you. Excluding Akuma, every new addition from this season pass feels completely different from the rest of the cast. Ed is a super simple fighter, if you struggle with inputs, Zeku adds complexity through his dual movesets, and Abigail is just big and weird. Menat has a ball-thing. Interesting, but not worth it for me.

uhh so spend 50 dollars to get the four season passes (that dont come with stages or costumes btw) or get the championship edition upgrade kit for 18 dollars on sale and get every stage, 200+ costumes, and every character season 4 and earlier. idk bro.
