Capcom has announced a new stage for Street Fighter V called Skies of Honor where combatants have to duke it out on the wings of an airborne plane. It would appear that the stage is themed after character Rashid, as his name appears on the wing of the plane.

It seems that Capcom has not considered the issues that may occur in high level competitive play, as there is a lot of action going on in the background that may cause distractions. The Kanuki Beach stage was banned from high profile tournaments for a similar reason.

If you are interested in high flying combat then the new stage will set you back $3.99 or 70,000 in fight money, currency that can be earned in-game. With Akuma also announced as joining the fight soon Capcom have also revealed there is another stage in the works. All that has been seen of the second new stage so far is a rainy backdrop featuring an old temple.

Skies of Honor is available now.
