Street Fighter X Tekken character reveals: Poison, Dhalsim, Steve Fox, Yoshimitsu
The Street Fighter X Tekken fighter lineup has been expanded at Comic-Con, with Dhalsim and Poison joining the Street Fighter side and Steve Fox and Yoshimitsu stepping up for Tekken.
A little more of the lineup for Street Fighter X Tekken has been revealed at San Diego Comic-Con, with four new duellists confirmed for Capcom's cross-over fighter. Dhalsim and Poison join the Capcom side of the rumble, while Steve Fox and Yoshimitsu step up for Tekken.
Rubberman Dhalsim is a mainstay of the Street Fighter series, but Poison's more of a background character. Originally from the Final Fight games, she broke into Street Fighter as the manager of the André the Giant-inspired Hugo in Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact. Yoshimitsu's also a veteran on his home turf, having appeared in every Tekken game, while Steve was introduced in Tekken 4.
Slated to launch in 2012, Street Fighter X Tekken is headed to PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita. The Sony console editions will have an exclusive character, Cole MacGrath from the inFamous series.
Development on Namco Bandai's own cross-over, Tekken X Street Fighter, is "at zero percent," producer Katsuhiro Harada recently said, adding that it's at "about five percent in my head."

Cue tons of "Poison's a dude/No, she's not" arguments.

Street Fighter IV's producer Yoshinori Ono, when asked in an interview about the matter, stated "Let's set the record straight: in North America, Poison is officially a post-op transsexual. But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away to look female." He later emphasized it again when asked about what female characters could be included in the game Street Fighter IV, stating that it would be too confusing to include her due to the region-specific gender.
