Street Fighter 6 Director Takayuki Nakayama explained how they got Tifa as guest character!
“The initial conversation began roughly three years ago. We have a mutual friend who works at Square Enix, who's also a big fan of Street Fighter 6. We’d been discussing about, what can we do to collaborate somehow? And then eventually those conversations led to, what about a potential guest character from one of their IPs or series?
And around that time the Final Fantasy VII remake series was very active, and looking at the character background, a character like Tifa, who has a heavy martial arts style, we thought that it would be perfect for Street Fighter 6. So it kind of organically led to this happening.”

@Sarline12@Midgar_Blues Tifa is in SF (which isn't a small fandom) and she's been in high demand everywhere like Hamaguchi has said.
The further CAs take their takes there won't be only clotis calling them out and laughing at them..
@yokikotokiku3 And here it says clearly who are part of Cloud's family. No,it doesn't include Barret and no.. Cloud being Marlene's dad.. doesn't exclude Barret. Ppl who say all that are just salty
GS = PLAYER'S preference with SOLDIER Cloud.
Point is to show how Cloud interacts with his companion.
HW = REAL Cloud with Tifa revealing their MUTUAL feelings (physically),"sealing" Tifa as the canon love interest which IS crucial part of the(ir) story and character arcs.
For the idiots going around thinking UTHW is suddenly some kind of revolving door for characters like the GS date, just bcz I know exactly who you ppl are;
Going out on a limb(not much of one tbh 🫠) to predict that characters need to be alive to do these side story quests.
