In terms of game announcements, Zelina Vega's Royal Rumble entrance was spot on. Zelina, a well-known wrestler and avid gamer, will be the most recent addition to the list of guest commentators in the upcoming Street Fighter 6 game from Capcom.
WWE made the unexpected disclosure during Vega's entrance at the San Antonio Alamodome's 2023 Royal Rumble match. Zelina, whose actual name is Thea Trinidad, cosplayed as Juri Han, the martial artist from Street Fighter, to look the part. A pink cellphone from Street Fighter 6 and Juri Han's distinctive lollypop were in Queen Zelina's hands as she moved approaching the ring. Vega proceeded to eliminate her opponent, Xia Li, using a Juri Han combo finishing move.
After Vega's appearance at the Royal Rumble, Capcom released a press release in which Vega officially confirmed the WWE news.
"I’ve been an avid gamer since I was a child and a huge fan of Street Fighter," said Thea Trinidad. "I can still remember epic matches with my brother, and I would always beat him with my favorite character Vega. It’s surreal to now be a part of this amazing franchise and I am honored and thankful for this once in a lifetime opportunity."
The Street Fighter 6 Real-Time Commentary function uses the voices of well-known commentators and personalities from the Fighting Game Community (FGC) to narrate matches as they are happening and explain the action in simple terms.
Jeremy "Vicious" Lopez, Ryutaro "Aru" Noda, Kosuke Hiraiwa, and Steve "TastySteve" Scott are some of the most recent names to be confirmed as play-by-play commentators. Thea Trinidad, H.E. Demon Kakka, and James "jchensor" Chen are a tag team for color commentary. 13 different languages will be supported with this feature's subtitles, enhancing player enthusiasm and accessibility.
