M Bison coming back for SF6 was quite the surprise tbh.

He kinda even feels like the Heihachi of SF because of how pivitol he is to SF. PLus, this guy can't even die. Like at all lol.

Psycho Power has to be some OP drug to have this guy keep coming back, even from a PoN charged Hadouken lol.

Akuma additions from Street Fighter 6

Here we are with the periodical Street Fighter 6 update (super late, but that's my life these days). Today's newcomer is Akuma. Sadly he hasn't received any major update, but a few more things are there to be added nonetheless. Such additions are once again not enough to warrant a new key, so...

So there is a game called Cannon Spike and Cammy is there and supposedly survives an explosion that some calced in gigatons range

First time i hear of it, let alone Cammy to be part of it, is that suppose to be canon?

Vega, Nash and a bunch of other Capcom characters (Mega Man, Arthur, BB Hood...) are also in there but it's considered a unique game and separate canon, even within side material that reference it, like Teppen and the SFV costumes.

Vega is still around and hinted he may return due to Bison being back

 

[BlackDarkness679]

Balrog also seems to be still around talking about Shadaloo and Ed organization

So going by Bison's win quote against Ryu as well as his story mode + various chars win quotes against him, that's supposed to be the same Bison that everyone in the series knows and thought should be dead dead huh?

And oof, Vega and Balrog not only being around but even consider potentially coming back to Shadoloo? That ain't good, although Balrog's ambiguous considering there's Ed and the Neo Shadoloo he's more or less running. Wonder what JP would think and react if he heard Bison is potentially back lol. I read Fang's in the game but I forgot if he's interested joining back to Shadoloo or not.

We have interview confirmation its the same Bison we know, with the body from SF5

Some characters also point out he isnt at his best with the body, which was a given from how he looks

 

[Qliphoth_Bacikal]

Given his animation when he wins at critically low health, that's a given.

The Psycho Power is still barely holding him together it looks like too, adding to your comment about him not looking well.
