Synopsis
A black cloud hangs over Ken and Ryu's reunion. Brought together by the mysterious death of their master, the two warriors must overcome a challenge unlike any they've faced before.

Increasingly disturbed by the dark energies building within him, Ryu is unexpectedly confronted with the appearance of Shun -- a boy claiming to be the long-lost brother he never knew.

Soon, signs of their common lineage are revealed as Shun enters a martial arts competition and manifests the same fearsome Dark Hadou. But before Ryu has the chance to consider whether Shun's timely appearance might be more than coincidental, the boy is kidnapped by agents of the insidious Shadowlaw organization.

To recover the child, Ryu must undertake the ultimate journey of self-discovery and learn to control the power threatening to consume him. But with his confidence waning, will he have what it takes to confront Akuma - the vicious lord of the Dark Hadou himself?

Find out as Ken, Ryu, and the ever-impressive Chun Li are joined by a host of allies in an all-out battle against a sinister new threat in the pulse-pounding sequel to the phenomenally popular Street Fighter IIV Series.
