Street Fighter V’s cinematic story mode is confirmed to have all 6 DLC characters as playable. However, they are said to be in early development so they are not complete yet. The story mode is set to take place between the events of Street Fighter III and Street Fighter IV. It will feature the world warriors to fight alongside each other and take on M.Bilson and his Crime organisation known as Shadaloo.
