“The need for better, more effective treatments have never been greater.
“This year, breast cancer became the most common cancer worldwide, impacting 2.3 million people,” Biblowit said. You can buy the costumes individually for $5.99 or purchase them together for $9.99, with all proceeds going towards breast cancer research.īCRF President and CEO Myra Bibliowit said the company is grateful for the opportunity to partner with Capcom to give Street Fighter 5 players the option to dress their favorite characters in pink for a great cause.

The costumes come in two variants - the first variant being all pink with black layers and the other one all white with some pink and black layers.
The special pink-hued costumes are designed to bring more awareness to the disease that affects millions of people each year, especially women, and raise funds for research into treatments and a possible cure for breast cancer. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Capcom is teaming up with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation to release pink costumes in Street Fighter 5 for playable all-star fighters Chun-Li and Ryu.
