## Characters

In addition to the characters below, several titles have also introduced characters to the Street Fighter series that are considered canon only to their respective media. This includes the Monitor Cyborg for the Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie and related game, Shin from the browser video game Street Fighter Online: Mouse Generation, and the characters Blade, Arkane, Kyber, F7, and Sawada from the arcade game based on the 1994 Street Fighter film. Several characters from the Street Fighter franchise also appear in Street Fighter EX and its subsequent re-releases and sequels. While these games introduce new characters, they have been since expanded into their own franchise under the Fighting EX Layer series, and ties to the Street Fighter cast removed. Street Fighter 6 was the first main series entry to include playable third-party guest characters, adding two fighters from SNK's Fatal Fury series.
More detailed information on the characters can be found under their respective games, while the characters of the Street Fighter II series and those of the Street Fighter III series can be found on their respective standalone lists.
