Character description
Ryu is considered to be the "main character" of the Street Fighter series. He is a practitioner of the Ansatsuken martial arts. Appearing in all Street Fighter games, Ryu's moveset is designed to be simple and beginner friendly, with a projectile and an anti-air move. Over the years, due to his simple playstyle, he has received many clones, including Ken and Akuma.
In Super Smash Bros. 4
Ryu appears as downloadable content in Super Smash Bros. 4, being the first newcomer and third-party character with that distinction.
Trivia
