Capcom has revealed Yasmine, a new downloadable content character for Street Fighter 6, in an official character-overview trailer [1].
The addition of Yasmine introduces a distinct combat style to the game's roster. By incorporating Eskrima, a traditional Filipino martial art, the developer expands the tactical variety available to players in the competitive fighting game scene.
According to the reveal trailer, Yasmine will be available Aug. 3 [1]. The character is designed as a rush-down fighter, utilizing her skills in Eskrima to pressure opponents [2]. The trailer provides a detailed look at her specific moveset and overall playstyle [1].
Players can access the character across multiple platforms, including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam [1]. The character can be purchased individually using Fighter Coins [3].
While most reports align on the Aug. 3 date, some conflicting information exists regarding the DLC schedule. One report from Nintendo Life suggested a different release window in May 2026, though the official trailer and other major outlets maintain the Aug. 3 date [1, 4].
“Hailing from the Philippines, Yasmine will rush you down with her skills in Eskrima on August 3,” GameSpot said in its video description [2].
This release follows a pattern of Capcom adding diverse fighters from various global backgrounds to the Street Fighter 6 ecosystem. The character guide provided by IGN further details how the character integrates into the hit action fighting game [5].

The introduction of Yasmine signals Capcom's continued strategy of diversifying the Street Fighter 6 roster with regionally specific martial arts. By integrating Eskrima, the game appeals to a broader international audience while forcing competitive players to adapt to a high-pressure, rush-down playstyle. The availability across current-gen consoles and the Nintendo Switch 2 ensures the DLC reaches the widest possible install base.
