Street Fighter™ 6 · published
Kamusta ka? The first character from Year 4 is one of two brand new characters joining Street Fighter 6 alongside the other newcomer Arjun, the iconic Tifa from the FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series, and Bosch from World Tour. Hailing from the Philippines, Yasmine seeks to slice and dice her opponents in Eskrima, the national martial art of the country. Wield her blade with the start of Year 4 on August 3, 2026!
Yasmine learned how to fight alongside her Kuya (older brother) from her Lolo (grandfather). Initially, she trained simply because she wanted to spend more time with her Kuya, but he mysteriously vanished one day, making her lose any inspiration to fight and ended up doomscrolling on FooTube. Until one day, she stumbled upon a certain French supermodel’s videos, reinspiring her to go out into the world, hoping she’ll cut a path that will lead her right to her Kuya.
If you play rushdown characters, you’ll feel right at home with Yasmine as she zips and glides around to confuse opponents before slicing them right in the face with her trusty knife. Pair this with her lethal Bayani Mode and she’ll make each fight worthy to go viral on FooTube.
Daloy ng Tubig is a quick forward-moving knife attack that’s good in combos. Follow-up with Alon where Yasmine does a multi-slice hit and a different final hit depending on the strength used. The OD version can combo from a light attack and into Super Arts. It also powers up Alon into a devastating slice that’ll send opponents spinning and won’t take Yasmine out of Bayani Mode.
If Alon connects, Yasmine goes into Bayani Mode and her knife will glow blue. Using Alon in Bayani Mode will result in a different powered up final hit. Using the light version in Bayani Mode ends in a knock down, medium version will end in a ground bounce, and the heavy version ends in an even higher launcher than normal. After this hit, Bayani Mode will dissipate.
Talim ng Hangin is where Yasmine spins forward and sweeps with her knife, useful for closing the gap or taking an opponent by surprise. The light version is a good fake out while the medium and heavy versions will carry her forward. The medium version is safe on block and the heavy one is plus although it comes out pretty slow. And of course, landing this move puts Yasmine into Bayani Mode. The OD version is not safe, but if it hits, the opponent gets launched for a follow-up attack. Madaling sabihin, mahirap gawin.
Leap into the air with Mukha ng Langit, a front flip with two follow-up attacks. The button pressed determines how far Yasmine goes. The first follow-up attack is called Kulog where Yasmine swipes like an eagle’s talon. It’s safe on block and she can start a combo with a light attack if it lands.
The second follow-up is called Ulan, an upside-down spinning attack that hits backwards, so it’s best to aim for behind the opponent. The OD version of all three of these attacks makes it safe or plus on block, so go ham with it!
Lipad ng Agila sees Yasmine kicking into the air in a flurry of hits. A great anti-air and tool for ending combos. The OD version is invincible on startup to keep the bullies away.
Here’s where things get real tricky! Pangil sa Likuran is a projectile move that swirls around like a boomerang. The strength of the move determines how far it goes. It’s a tad slow coming out but is scary for its mix-up and combo potential. Don’t leave yourself open since it’ll disappear if you’re hit. The OD version of the boomerang hits three times, opening even more opportunity.
Yasmine’s Level 1 Super Art is Hiwa ng Kalangitan where she kicks her opponent in the air, then slams them back down. It has invincibility on startup so it’s useful as a counterattack or a “get off me.” Landing this also puts Yasmine in Bayani Mode.
Nakatagong Lakas is Yasmine’s Level 2 Super Art. She focuses her energy and for a limited time, she can use boosted special moves without leaving Bayani Mode. She can also use Linya ng Liwanag during this Super Art where she dashes past an opponent and attacks them from behind. The OD version of Alon also changes completely during this super art where Yasmine cuts through opponents with a buzzsaw of energy!
Finally, Pamumukadkad ng Sampaguita is her Level 3 Super Art where she spins an opponent and gathers energy before pulverizing them in an all-out attack.
Yasmine’s Outfit 2 is a schoolgirl uniform for when she’s not out looking for a fight. Unlock it by maxing out her Acquisition Gauge in Avatar Arcade Mode or with Fighter Coins.
With the Yasmine Update comes overall battle adjustments that will affect all characters marking the start of Year 4. Keep an eye out for the Battle Change List before maintenance starts.
The Year 4 passes are available now and the Ultimate Pass includes additional costumes and colors! Owners of the Year 4 Ultimate / Character Pass will have Yasmine unlocked when she releases on August 3. She will be playable at Evo Las Vegas from June 26-28! Until then, paalam!
