WWE Superstar Thea Trinidad aka Zelina Vegas will guest star as an in-game commentator in Street Fighter 6.
Zelina Vega entered as number 21 in this year’s Royal Rumble and was announced to be featured in Street Fighter 6 while cosplaying as Juri from the game. Thea Trinidad is a known gamer and has not only cosplayed as the Mortal Kombat character Jade, but she also appeared as Kitana at Royal Rumble 2020.

“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 favourite character Vega. It’s surreal to now be a part of this amazing franchise and I am honoured and thankful for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
Street Fighter 6 will feature real-time commentary in-game and judging from my hands-on impressions at EGX 2022, it works surprisingly well.
Street Fighter 6 will release on June 2nd, 2023 for PC, PlayStation and Xbox.
