[shadydude]

you can buy her alone

These are your three options:

Year 2 Character Pass
- 4 additional characters (M. Bison, Terry, Mai, Elena)
- 4 additional characters' colors: Outfit 1 Colors 3-10
- Purchase bonus: 4,200 Drive Tickets

Year 2 Ultimate Pass
- 4 additional characters (M. Bison, Terry, Mai, Elena)
- 4 additional characters' colors: Outfit 1 Colors 3-10
- 4 additional characters' costume: Outfit 2 (including colors 1-10)
- 4 additional characters' costume: Outfit 3 (including colors 1-10)
- 2 additional stages
- Purchase bonus: 7,700 Drive Tickets

You can usually find a cheaper price for the DLC on isthereanydeal.com.

You can also buy any DLC character from the in-game store for the Fight Coins listed on said character. You just have to buy enough of these coins, with real money, to do so.

If you just want Mai buying her through story when she releases will be by far the cheapest options.

How much does each character cost?

That's difficult to exactly calculate due to having to use bullcrap premium currency. But it is as follows:

Individual new character on release costs 350Fighting Coins, premium currency that you have to buy and can't earn.

Those are sold in following packages:
250 Fighter Coins for $6.99.
610 Fighter Coins for $11.99.
1,250 Fighter Coins for $23.99.
2,750 Fighter Coins $49.99.

So you will have to overpay to get the character.

Buying characters like that through the shop grants you the character only with only outfit one and colours 1,2. Colours 3-10 for outfit1 can likely be bought with earnable currency, so I wouldn't worry about it - if you play regularly it won't take too long. Outfit two has to be unlocked by playing the singleplayer mode World Tour and maxing bond with that character, or you can unlock them in the shop for 50FC.

Before the summer outfits3 for Mai should be released with colours 1-10 and it will cost you 300FC on launch.

So to compare:
To just buy the character with outfit1 and two colours you will have to buy a minimum of $11.99 in FC.

Buying character pass y2 ($30) will give you Mai and outfit1 plus all the colours. Outfit 3 still needs to be bought seperately on top of that when it releases if you want it.
Without the pass, to get the same content for just Mai you will have to spend $18.96 (610+250FC). With that you can buy the character (350FC), unlock outfit 2 (50FC), and outfit 3 when it releases (300FC). And have 160FC left over. You can also save 50FC on outfit2 and unlock it by playing. You will need to buy more FC to unlock colours for outfit 1, or unlock them by playing.


Ultimate pass y2 ($50) - will grant you Mai and outfits1, 2, 3 with all colours. So nothing that $18.96 and a bit of grinding won't cover as far as Mai is concerned.

Information above are incorrect (outfit2 doesn’t have to be bought, so I will amend it right now).

Edit. I think it is now correct. Phew, confusopolis at work.
