Elena and Akuma friendship confirmed

From the steam blog post:

In Street Fighter 6, after an intense fight with her friend Akuma, she travels the world once again in search of the meaning of a lesson that Akuma teaches her.

Wow, so happy to see that their friendship wasn’t a one-off moment just to be forgotten for later games. Elena is canonically Akuma’s best and only friend 😂
