Now that Capcom finally announced the news they've been hyping up since what seems like ages, the identity of the fifth character in the upcoming Ultra Street Fighter IV update, it seems like regular Street Fighter news have somewhat diminished in value.

Nonetheless, life goes on and with it comes a recent reveal related to the mystery warrior Decapre, the new addition to the Ultra Street Fighter IV roster and the first time Bison's Doll will be available as a playable character.

She showed us some impressive moves in the reveal trailer, where she was shown alongside the new additions in the incoming update, Hugo, Poison, Rolento and Elena, but the gaming community was quick to point out the fact that she bears a strange resemblance to Cammy.

In what is perhaps an unrelated note, the Street Fighter series' executive producer, Yoshinori Ono, has taken to Twitter to reveal some of the concept art behind the new character.

He states that the models were found on the art designer's desk, and offer a first glimpse of the original designs that Decapre was based on, showing her burnt face, then several variations of her claw weapon, which is designed to have multiple functionalities, and finally offering some sketches of her facial expressions.

Ultra Street Fighter IV will hit markets in June 2014, with the arcade edition hitting in April and the PC version in August.
