Read details on the character below:
Ingrid’s first Terran vacation occurred in Capcom Fighting Evolution in 2004, before she quickly tore through the fabric of reality again to appear in Street Fighter Alpha 3 MAX in 2006. While Ingrid has never been shy about using her magical maneuvers to put the hurt on her opponents, her latest gameplay trailer shows the whole new bag of tricks she’s bringing to Street Fighter 6:
- Sun Crests – Ingrid infuses herself with the power of the sun up to four times to imbue her attacks with additional hits, range, and follow up options.
- Sun Shot – Ingrid shoots a dazzling ball of light in front of her that briefly pauses before launching at a different angle or speed depending on the button pressed and how long it is held.
- Sun Flare – Ingrid shoots a beam of light forward with both heavy and light versions that respectively spend or gather Sun Crests for combo options.
- Solar Burst – A downward beam of light Ingrid projects diagonally while in the air. Like Sun Flare, the light version stores a Sun Crest and the other versions use Crests for amplified properties.
- Sun Rise – A spinning attack with light, medium, and heavy variants that can open up powerful combo opportunities.
- Sun Veil – A counterattack that nullifies incoming damage and knocks the attacker down. While it can absorb projectiles, it won’t stop Super Arts or any attacks that hit multiple times.
- Vanishing Sun – A short-range teleport with three different destinations to confuse opponents while attacking or create distance on defense.
- Shining Sun – Ingrid’s Level 1 Super Art Sun where she attacks with a series of magical kicks.
- Order of the Sun – Ingrid’s Level 2 Super Art allows her to fire a beacon of light into the sky and depending on the button pressed, a shower of solar power rains down upon her foes.
- Cosmic Ray – Ingrid’s Level 3 Super Art gives a glimpse of her ultimate power as she fires an energy beam capable of reaching opponents even on the other side of the screen.
Ingrid will be unlocked and ready to shine on May 28 for players who own or purchase the Year 3 Character Pass or Year 3 Ultimate Pass. Ingrid’s Outfit 1 showcases her new look while travelling the dimensions, while Outfit 2 reflects her classic appearance complete with purple school uniform.
Street Fighter 6 is available on the Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PC via Steam.

A character as DLC? Only mugs support this crap.
Are you new to fighting games?
Completely irrelevant if i were or not.
Street Fighter, since 2 back in the SNES days, would keep adding characters and relaunching the whole game 2 times in expanded versions to sell the new characters and stages.
Now people can buy them in those versions, in yearly packs or individually.
You question a character being DLC on a fighting game is really such a strange question as if its something new.
