Street Fighter V’s cast just got a little bigger (and a little more colorful).

Sony revealed the newest character for the upcoming fighting game today. It’s Rainbow Mika, a female wrestler with an … interesting costume. Mika’s first (and so far only) appearance in the series was in Street Fighter Alpha 3, which came out back in 1998.

You can see Mika in action below.

The PlayStation beta for Street Fighter V will go live again on August 28. The full game comes out for PlayStation 4 and PC in March 2016.
