Street Fighter 6 Shows Alex Gameplay Footage At Tokyo Game Show 2026
The footage answers what the earlier Alex trailers left out: how the character actually plays, with a white-damage buildup style that asks opponents to parry or reposition rather than guard.

At Capcom's Tokyo Game Show 2026 stage live on September 20, the company revealed gameplay footage of Alex, the second Year 4 character in Street Fighter 6. Alex releases on October 13 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. The footage shows a move set built around accumulating Recoverable Damage, plus taunt and victory poses.
Capcom's TGS2026 stage live on September 20 put Alex on screen in motion for the first time. The demo booth on the show floor is playable but bars photography and recording, so the stage stream is where the move properties surfaced: Alex builds Recoverable Damage, then converts the accumulated white health all at once through throws and other moves. Defending against it leans on Parry or on avoiding contact entirely. Guest Shaka, who played Alex in a match during the stream, said the character is fun to use. Alex joins Street Fighter 6 on October 13.
