A new trailer for the Capcom game, Asura's Wrath, was released, offering a look at Ryu, Akuma and Evil Ryu. We posted about this before, but this trailer shows a bit more of what to expect.

The Ryu episode will be available in Japan on May 8 for 160 Microsoft Points ($2) or 200 yen. The Akuma bout comes out on May 15 for the same price.

This... will... be.... epic.... if they do full fledged boss fight between Asura and Evil Ryu on the moon, oh god. Take my money!!!

And now put Asura in SSF4 as a dlc character, they have to now! Capcom please!

I honestly thought that Ryu got teleported on the top of the building against Wolverine in MvC3.

Damn, that was hype as hell. Asura pretty much looks like he was made for fighting games.

@7

Nah man, he'd be a PERFECT fit in UMvC3 instead!

Asura would be a great vs fighter, hell he'd fit right in with the Darkstalkers guys due to his literally GDLK state

Keiji Inafune was going to put Ryu, and Arthur in Megaman Universe. Bayonetta is going to be in Anarchy Reigns when you pre order it in Japan. Dante was in Shin Megami Tensei title Nocturine.

At no time did I see these characters come with a Nickel and Dime string, but this has THAT written all over it.

It looks interesting but when its Capcom doing this it usually means trouble. Now they are Nickel and Diming CROSSOVERS? I feel so double edged about this.

Capcom has to put Asura in SSF4 now. They've made him, so it can't be too difficult to make him DLC.

I suppose it could be a test for Asura. Is he popular enough to be considered for Ultimate MVC3.

Thats one more way of looking at it. I'm hoping for some more optimism. I don't know why they couldn't have done this and put it in the game already. It would have provided more replay value.

Thats one more reason I am once again seeing Nickel and Diming folks.

#21 I agree, Asura would be great for UMVC3, they probably planned on having him as a future DLC character before they realized people where fed up.

But seeing how Asura's design fits perfectly in the SF IV universe, it makes me wonder why not add him in A.E.? The graphic style is really close (Asura looks like Evil Ryu) and they even used the same font for Asura's Wrath title. I wonder how hard can it be to make the DLC available on SSFIV A.E. as well...?

Ummm.... wouldn't be more easy to add Asura on SSF4AE and on SFxT?, of course, i have nothing against this stuff either

LOL did you watch that full DLC trailer? "the true conclusion to Asuras wrath"

Now capcom is making you pay extra for the endings of games too!?

what the fuk is this a $1 iphone game! these people paid 60bucks for a game that lasts only a handful of hours, and you still withold the ending?

I cant wait to see what they have for SF5. Here is an idea capcom, why dont you make it so taht players can only use teh 3 punch buttons when they buy the game, and must pay for "DLC" to use the kicks. Makes perfect sense

#32 thanks for the offer. If you dont find it funny how lazy some of these publishers have become you are either too young to remember when they used to have to work hard to get your attention/money with things like good games and creativity.

I think the ryu/akuma DLC is really cool. I dont think the DLC which is a story add on (unrelated to SF characters) is cool at all. I dont think you watched the full 1:55 trailer, if you did you would see what I mean.

Instead of unique content we get rushed games that are full of bugs.

Do you know how many patches there were to SSFII on genesis? none. you know why? cause they didnt release it until it worked.

Have you played Asuras wrath? Its a solid game that is super short. Easily finished in one sitting. and now capcom is telling us they didnt event include the ending in teh game, but I can buy it a few weeks if I want it.

If you are cool with that and think that is how your games should be then right on. But I will pass.

this DLC is awesome but i played the demo for asuras wrath last night and let me tell ya, it was awful. i just wanted it to be over already. it was mainly mashing B button when they told me to or pressing A or Y within 3 seconds when told to. just awful, i expected a lot more :/

...And off an ebonic rant, I'm sure Keiji Inafune, the former prime director for this game is laughing his @$$ off for this. I bet the direction for this game was supposed to go a completely different direction.

The first trailer for this game proves my point;that trailer showed more enthusiasm in his rage and seemed like a complete blast. with his absence we can say,"Capcom needs him"

Asura's Wrath is more like a cinematic animation than a action game, just save yourself some money and watch the episodes on youtube.

yea pretty much. anybody that has brought the game only played 10% of gameplay. just rent the game like a movie(it only takes 6 hours to beat anyways. NoT worth 60$ bucks.
btw i like how the true ending is dlc. FAIL

Asura's Wrath barely sells so they slap some of their most popular characters into DLC to boost revenues, color me uninterested.

They didn't make him.... it was CC2(guys behind the Naruto fighters with the wierd names "Naruto Shuppdien: ultimate ninja storm Generations" yes that's the full REAL TITLE and Dot Hack)

I'm really hoping this doesn't turn out like another Skullo(and other members of Street Fighter EX) situation where CC2 & Capcom both own the character so unless they make a game together the character can't be used.
