X-Kira has been a well-known data miner for Street Fighter 5. X-Kira's findings have had a history of becoming reality.

Recently, X-Kira released a large number of slides that talks about what they have found in the past and what we could be seeing in the future. Interestingly enough, there was some new pieces of info that we hadn't heard about until now.

In particular, slides 50 through 58 are especially interesting. This is when the new information starts.

If we were to take the information given here at face value, then it means that we have new costumes and stages coming. It also hints at the potential that the arcade mode could launch any day now.

M. Bison costume 05, Karin costume 08, Guile costume 04, and Ibuki costume 08 are the costumes referenced in these slides. As noted in the code, M. Bison costume 06, Karin costume 06, and Karin costume 07 are skipped.

One of the stages might be a stage for Ibuki. Not much information is given on the second stage.

Finally, it appears that X-Kira was able to patch in just a few files into the game and make the arcade mode functional. According to X-Kira, Capcom could activate the DLC today without any problems. There will apparently be a video for this later.
