Capcom reveals first in-game screenshot of Oro in Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition Season 5
Earlier this morning, Capcom revealed the first screenshot for Oro in Street Fighter 5: Champion Edition Season 5. Oro is currently scheduled to be released in Summer 2021, after Rose who is being released in Spring 2021.
