Although Capcom has not shied away from crossovers with Street Fighter in the past, it seems like they’re leaning in more with their anime sensibilities for the new game.
With a Spy x Family vs. Street Fighter 6 collaboration on the horizon, many fans are hoping to see the obvious Yor costume for Chun-Li, but multiple artists have shown off why they should be asking for Anya Zangief instead.
It’s pretty funny to see how in less than a day after the main reveal we have not just one but two artists showing us what the true best future could look like between Quasimodox and Wallace Pires.
Just seeing Zangief squeezed into that tiny school girl outfit is hilarious enough as it is though we’re not sure which version of the hair style we like better.
There’s Pires’ take with Gief keeping Anya’s full haircut while Quasimodox decided to keep the grappler’s hair but turn it pink and give him the hair horn ornaments slapped onto the side of his head.
Looking forward to potential Spy Family x Street Fighter costumes!

And maybe her telepathy powers could help players read when the opponent is actually going to jump or backdash out of his grabs.
In all seriousness, however, we don’t even know yet if the Spy x Family crossover is even going to include costumes for the characters because Street Fighter 6’s track record thus far makes it more likely they’ll be limited to just custom avatar items.
