I posted this in the new character reveal thread, but new news, new thread. Via Eventhubs:
I'm hoping this means new V-Skills and Supers, though it's likely there will be a least another character or two.
The Eventhubs article I posted in the other thread, titled "Someone on Twitter correctly predicted Street Fighter 5's three new characters a week ago and now says more fighters are inbound", has been removed for some reason. This was the article content I had posted:
Those are some pretty spot on predictions about Lucia, Poison, and Honda, so perhaps Oro is waiting in the wings?
Yoshinori Ono announced following the release of the official character trailers that he will be missing out on EVO finals this weekend, but left us with the confirmation that Street Fighter 5 still has more on the way.
"I appreciate your concern," said Ono in his English tweet. "Blanka is preparing himself for when he has presentation E Honda at #SFVAE #EVO2019 Final. Unfortunately, Hey please change your clothes. I’m really irritated and sad. But Blanka’s Pocket is growing for next! Look forward to it."
"The SF5 development team is still currently working on new things for the game," said Ono in his Japanese response translated by EventHubs. "Please look forward to the next time we are able to present."
As for when those new developments may show up, it still remains up in the air though the likely candidate would be at Capcom Cup 2019 in December. If we're really lucky, however, maybe Capcom will include some sort of teaser at EVO this weekend — seems like a pretty slim chance at this point though.

On July 25th, 2019, a Twitter user by the name of Sir Arthur sent out a tweet about the EVO 2019 finals and the Street Fighter 5 reveal expected to drop there. They specifically mentioned E. Honda, Lucia, and Poison, saying they'll lose their... mind if those fighters are announced.
"I can’t wait for evo 2019," Sir Arthur wrote. "Especially the street fighter 5 tournament. If I see a Lucia, Poison and Honda announced. I’m gonna lose my s***!"
At around 6 p.m. yesterday evening, following the leaks, the Twitter user sent out another tweet making note of a "Winter bundle" expected to launch at a later time. As we now know, E. Honda, Poison, and Lucia are being sold as the "Summer bundle," meaning that if what this person says is true, we could be seeing another set of characters by the end of this year.
Arthur responded to a Twitter user asking which other characters will be coming in Street Fighter 5 Season 4. Though not said outright, the hint given definitely seems to point to Street Fighter 3's Oro.
"You heard of the fighter who has 2 arms? But uses one," Sir Arthur hinted.
