Street Fighter V's newest character Necalli after being confirmed, has now received new details.

Writing on the Capcom Unity blog, Capcom posted a handful of images (see them in the gallery below) and provided an overview of Necalli and his brutal moves.

Here is Capcom's official description for Necalli, whom the publisher describes as a "straightfoward, hard-hitting character" who specializes in a variety of close-range attacks.

"Hailing from a mysterious background, Necalli utilizes a wild, animalistic fighting style to brutalize his opponents. There's no finesse here as all of his attacks have been forged through the heat of battle to inflict maximum pain upon his opponents. However, beneath the surface of the crazed warrior lies a hidden genius that is unleashed upon V-Trigger activation. Players who enjoy a straightforward, hard-hitting character will feel right at home with Necalli, as he possesses a wide variety of savage, close-range attacks, as well as a command grab, all with the goal of demolishing his foes."

Capcom teased that it will share details regarding the "many mysteries" surrounding Necalli's origins and storyline "in due time."

Street Fighter V launches in March 2016 for PS4 and PC; cross-platform play will be supported.
