Pocket pugilists rejoice: Capcom has announced the next character that will be making its way to the iPhone edition of Street Fighter IV.

Available soon in a free download, Japanese sumo wrestler E. Honda will join the game’s ten fighter-strong line-up. He follows Cammy, Zangief, and Crimson Viper as former updates to the cast.

Honda’s goal in the fighting tournament is simple: he wants to be the world’s greatest sumo wrestler, and promote the Japanese fighting technique to foreigners.

The character will be added soon in a free update to the game. We gave the app a sparkling Silver Award when it hit iPhone and iPod touch earlier this year.

If you don’t have the game yet, it’ll set you back £5.99 / $9.99 / €7.99.
