Every Easter Egg in the 'Street Fighter' Trailer

In the trailer's opening short, we see the trademark skull-and-wing insignia of Shadaloo, M. Bison's paramilitary organization in the games. We also see that this is the second tournament—an obvious reference to Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (1991), which gave the franchise its mainstream success despite being a sequel.

The street fight bears a strong resemblance to the opening of Street Fighter II: Championship Edition (1992), including the scroll-up shot after the two fighters make contact

Dhalsim is one of the original World Warriors from the 1991 game. He hails from India, and he practices a mystical yoga that allows him to warp, stretch his limbs, and breathe fire. He's played by Vidyut Jammwal.

In the games, Chun Li enters the Street Fighter tournament to avenge her father's murder at the hands of M. Bison. In the trailer, it seems Chun is a common link among the fighters, and she travels to their home countries to convince them to join the tournament.

We see two iconic Chun Li moves. The first is the Spinning Bird Kick. Although she levitates off the ground in the game, she performs a more grounded version in the movie. In the games, you perform the Spinning Bird Kick by charging Down, and then pressing Up plus any kick button.

The second Chun Li move made its debut in the Street Fighter Alpha series. It's a Supreme Mountain Kick, more commonly referred to as an axe kick. You perform it by pressing Quarter-Circle-Back plus any kick button.

In the games, Guile enters the tournament to avenge the death of his wartime buddy Charlie. He is played by WWE Superstar Cody Rhodes (son of legendary wrestler Dusty Rhodes). He's not the only professional wrestler with a key role in the movie. More on that later.

We see Guile perform a Flash Kick against Vega. In the games, the Flash Kick is a near-foolproof anti-air attack. You perform it by charging Down, and then pressing Up plus any kick button.

Cammy first debuted in Super Street Fighter II as a Delta Red operative with amnesia. Prior to her memory loss, Cammy was a Shadaloo assassin and a clone body for M. Bison. The Alpha game expanded this backstory by depicting Cammy during her Shadaloo days. Cammy is wearing her Alpha-era clothes in the trailer, suggesting she is still under Bison's control.

Cammy makes a disparaging comment about Chun Li's thighs. Chun's legs have been a source of much positive attention (and fan service!) over the past three decades. And Cammy's comment—that she "doesn't see the big deal"—is a funny, meta understatement.

In the games, Balrog is a boxer who's been banned from legal tournaments—more brawn than brains and a vicious rushdown fighter. He's the first of four bosses that you must beat in Street Fighter II to become champion. He's played in the movie by hip-hop artist 50 Cent.

Vega is the second of four bosses that you must beat in Street Fighter II to become champion. He's a vain psychopath who wears a mask to protect his beautiful face, and he's the only World Warrior who has a weapon—a three-pronged claw on his hand. He's played in the movie by Orville Peck.

We see Chun undressing as she enters a steamy room. This may be a reference to an iconic post-shower fight between Chun Li and Vega from Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie (1994). If we end up getting a live-action iteration of this fight? Prepare to be blown away.

Ken's hype man is Dan Hibiki. In the games, Dan is a joke character deliberately made weak and slow by the designers. In the movie, he's portrayed by comedian and podcaster Andrew Schulz.

We see Ken delivering a brutal head kick to a fat, out-of-shape luchador. Based on his costume, this is a representation of El Fuerte, a low-tiered character who debuted in Street Fighter IV.

Ken does a Rolling Ground Throw on Ryu, which he also performs in numerous games. You perform this move by getting close to the opponent, holding Towards or Away, and pressing Roundhouse kick.

The car scene is a reference to the bonus game in Street Fighter II, in which the player must completely destroy a car—until the wheels literally fall off—in 40 seconds. You first have to destroy the left side's door. Then you have to jump over to the right side and continue attacking until it finally falls apart.

Zangief is a wrestler who, according to the original lore, sustained multiple scars across his body from wrestling bears. We first see him in the trailer doing manual labor. He hails from Russia; in his Street Fighter II ending, he dances with Mikhail Gorbachev.

Zangief performs a double Atomic Suplex on Ken, who looks absolutely terrified. In the games, you perform an Atomic Suplex by rotating the joystick or control pad 360 degrees and then pressing any kick button. It is the second most powerful move that Zangief can perform, after the Spinning Piledriver.

We see E. Honda fighting in what appears to be a hot steam bath. In the games, Honda entered the tournament to prove the viability of sumo wrestling in a shoot competition. Hirooki Goto plays Honda in the new movie.

M. Bison is the leader of the Shadaloo and the final boss for Street Fighter II, infamous for his psychic powers and agility. In the movie, he's played by David Dasmalchian.

Akuma debuted as a secret character in Super Street Fighter II Turbo (1994). He is the evil brother of Ryu and Ken's master, corrupted by his obsession with dark arts. He's played in the movie by WWE Superstar Roman Reigns.

Blanka is an original World Warrior from the jungles of Brazil, known for his unorthodox fighting style and green, electrical skin. We later discover that Blanka was a young boy named Jimmy, who was lost after his plane crashed in the rainforest. His mother will later find and reunite with him. He is played by Jason Momoa.

And of course, there had to be room in the trailer for the two most iconic Street Fighter moves. The first is the Shoryuken, which Ken performs against Dhalsim. In the games, it's an anti-air punch with a long recovery time. You perform by pressing Toward, Down, Down-Towards plus any Punch button.

The trailer ends with the iconic Hadouken fireball, as delivered by Ryu. In the games, it's performed by pressing Quarter-Circle-Forward plus any Punch Button. The stronger the punch button, the faster the fireball goes.
