    Alternate Costumes are different outfits for characters in Street Fighter 5. These alternative skins will completely change the look of the fighters, but won’t affect their combat abilities. Sadly, only a few are available at the time, with more promised to come in the March update. This guide will show you all known SFV alternate costumes and how to unlock them.

    Birdie Outfits
    Story Mode Birdie: Getting the story outfit for the chain-wielding, moustache-donning brute is as easy as it gets. Just win the story mode as him, and the costume will appear in the store.

Like the default outfit, this one has glowing hair when using the V skills.

First you’ll need to finish the story mode playing as her, then you’ll have to purchase it from the in-game shop. The shop isn’t in the game yet (it should be added in a month), so there’s no way of getting it at the moment.

    Nash Outfits
    Nash Story Costume: As with the other characters, you’ll have to beat the story mode for this one to become available. After that, you’ll have to buy it from the in-game shop if you want to use it. The shop won’t be online until sometime in March.
