Hey AP family!

This time we’re trying something a little different out. I’m compiling weekly and biweekly newsletter releases curated by Arcade Press that represent the most interesting things in recent news regarding our research into gaming and arcade culture. Enjoy the roundup!

1. Mini doc: New Character Luke for Street Fighter 6— DESIGN DNA by Arkhaives at Midnight.

   “Capcom recently announced Street Fighter 5's final DLC fighter, and to many fans' surprise, it is not an already established favorite or a special guest star from another franchise. Instead, it's an entirely original character never before seen in the series: Luke.”

2. Tekken player CuddleCore signed with Redbull and is now in Forbes 30 under 30!

   Jeannail "Cuddle_Core" Carter is one of the best professional Tekken players in North America, having won two ICFC North American championships and collecting more than 25 top-three finishes in 2021 competitions alone. She is Red Bull's first Black female gaming athlete, and consistently advocates for better representation in gaming for women and under-represented groups.
