Bio
Showcasing a red gi and blond hair, Ken Masters loves standing out as an American martial artist in Japan. There, he trained with Ryu under the same master, learning discipline and the deadly art of Ansatsuken. Fulfilling the "player two" role in Street Fighter, Ken matches Ryu move for move; while Ken's individuality evolves throughout the series, they remain each other's toughest rivals.
The rich son of owners of a hotel chain, Ken lives the high life in sports cars and nightclubs, or he sometimes chills with his lover, Eliza.
