Dual Pixels was able to translate the said text from Computer Bild and revealed that both Cammy and Birdie will be joining the latest "Street Fighter" sequel for the PlayStation 4 and PC platforms. The website further revealed that Capcom made some few changes on both fighters in game.

Cammy is described as faster and more agile than ever before as she combines both speed and melee attacks during battles. Birdie, on the other hand, is said to be "very immobile," and his chain attacks are not to be underestimated making him a huge threat to players in "Street Fighter 5," PlayStationLifeStyle noted.

Cammy has been a fan favorite for gaming fans over the years and has appeared in numerous "Street Fighter" titles as well as crossover games. Birdie makes his return to the fighting series since the original "Street Fighter" video game and Alpha series.

Aside from the charater leaks, the launch date for "Street Fighter 5" has been put on March 2016 for the PS4 and PC by UK Magazine Shorlist, Attack of the Fanboy reported. The website further adds that Capcom is expecting to sell almost 2 million copies of "Street Fighter 5" next year.
