Storyline
Street Fighter
The Tournament Begins Anew
Akuma's brother, Gouken is the legendary martial arts master of Ryu and Ken. After training with his brother under Goutetsu and learning the unnamed assassination style, the siblings separated. Gouken rejected the Satsui no Hadou side of the fighting style and developed his own additions, removing the killing power of Hadouken and Shoryuken, turning them into tools for self-defense.

Fun Facts
What could have been
According to game co-developer Alan Noon (who also played Blade and his palette-swapped cohorts in the game), Capcom initially did not specify that the game would be based on the movie, just that it would be a new Street Fighter with digitized graphics, using actors for the movie. Under the impression that they were designing Street Fighter III, Noon and the rest of the team came up with a list of fighters that included Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, E. Honda, Sagat, Vega, Cammy, Akuma, M. Bison, Blanka, Dee Jay, Fei Long, Dhalsim, Sheng Long (Gouken), Geki, Retsu, Lee, Gunloc, and Mega Man.
