Evil Ryu first appeared in the series in 1996's Street Fighter Alpha 2. He is a version of Street Fighter protagonist Ryu that has succumbed to the evil power Satsui no Hado. Violent Ken makes his official debut in a Street Fighter game, having previously only appeared in the crossover fighting game SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos. He is a version of Ken Masters that has been brainwashed by M. Bison and makes use of Bison's Psycho Powers. As Akuma becomes a regular selectable fighter, his Shin Akuma form, a secret boss from Street Fighter Alpha 2, is also featured as a secret character only selectable in local play through the input of a code on the character select screen.
The game features local and online multiplayer. Online multiplayer includes a point-based ranking system based on a player's wins and losses. A "standby" feature has been added to the game's arcade mode, which allows other online players to challenge and take the place of the CPU opponent that the player typically battles in arcade. A local cooperative game mode, known in the Alpha games as "Dramatic Battle", has been added in Ultra Street Fighter II now known as "Buddy Battle". It allows players to team up in a two versus one fight against a CPU player.Additionally the game includes a simplified one-hit knockout mode.
In addition to the standard 2D gameplay, there is also an exclusive new Street Fighter V/Street Fighter IV-styled first-person battle mode known as "Way Of the Hado". In this mode, the player controls Ryu in a first-person perspective to defeat as many Shadaloo Soldiers as possible (Sometimes, M. Bison also appears as a boss). For this mode, the player must hold the Joy-Con controller in both hands to perform attacks such as Hadouken, Shoryuken and Tatsumaki Senpukyaku in order to defeat enemies. As the player progresses throughout the game, the player can earn growth points to power up Ryu. The mode has three difficulties: Beginner, Standard and Extra. There is also a practice mode for practicing attacks, as well as an Endless mode that lets the player fight until Ryu's health bar is empty.
USFII includes a gallery mode, containing over 1400 illustrations from the art book SF20: The Art of Street Fighter. The player can also listen to each fighter's modern or classic-styled stage music while in gallery mode.
