- "If you looked at how we handled Street Fighter 4, it was the dominant fighting game of that generation of consoles, we're expecting the same from Street Fighter 5, so we are thinking long term,"
- "We did not just follow the poll rankings as law, there's a lot of elements that come into play when creating a roster and gameplay styles, and it's not necessarily our job to give fans exactly what they want — it's our job to be innovative and give fans what they don't even know they want yet,"
- "A good example for our tone is Birdie," said Dahlgren. "I don't think anyone really saw him coming, but we had this really cool character design — he's practically a new character in himself — but he doesn't take up one of the slots we have for brand new fighters.
- "Very soon in the future, you will see brand new characters for the franchise,"
- Every character won't have a stage based on them, but we will be staying true to the Street Fighter franchise in bringing new locations throughout the globe to the game in the form of new stages, but there won't be parity between characters and stages.
- "This is the only disc you're ever going to need to own to get all of the content in the game, but we'll be revealing details of how our post-launch content happens at a later date, but it will be good news,"

- Quieren que SFV tenga el dominio del IV, por tanto miran a largo plazo.
- Los personajes elegidos no se han determinado esctrictamente por la popularidad de sus encuestas. Su trabajo es innovar. Darle a la gente lo que todavía no saben que quieren.
- Ponen a Birdie como ejemplo. Nadie esperaba que entrara pero es un personaje con un gran diseño. Practicamente es un personaje nuevo del original, pero no quita el sitio de algún personaje nuevo.
- Muy pronto se verán personajes inéditos en la saga.
- No habrá escenario temático de cada personaje, ni paridad escenario-personaje. Sí se seguirán creando nuevos en nuevas localizaciones.
- Street Fighter V será la única versión física. Detallarán como funcionará el contenido DLC, pero habrán buenas noticias.
