Where's my Hsien-ko, Capcom!?
I like how they were revealed shortly after my post too.
By the way, Lupinko said Akuma would have a lightning effect on his tatsumaki (hurricane kick), but he's had those in the VS series before so it's not like that's anything too ground shaking. He also mentioned that Doom and Wesker have "silver surfer like" alts, and that every character has more than 4 alts (to unlock them you beat arcade or something).
Hsien-ko and Sentinel are also unlockable characters. He also talked a bit about Galactus. I'll try to get his twitter post about it tomorrow (too lazy to look right now) for the exact wording, he tweeted like last week about it. Funny that we get Doom in that alt he mentioned for this video.
Also, check this out.
Judging by those numbers, I'm guessing unlocks will go like this:
2k PP = Akuma
4k PP = Sentinel
6k PP = Hsien-ko
8k PP = Taskmaster
1 Arcade run gives you 1 character, so you should have all 4 unlocked easily by just going through arcade 4 times.
Edit: Correction, I think Lupinko said before fighting Galactus you fight surfer-like-skinned Wesker and Doom. Maybe they were made into heralds of Galactus? Dunno if you can unlock those as costumes for them, but I'll try to find his twitter post. I dunno how the hell to look through Twitter though, it's such an annoying site. How am I supposed to find anything you "tweet" about if you tweet all freaking day?
If you guys wanna try looking:

EuroGamer Wrote:Akuma and Taskmaster are locked at the beginning of the game. To unlock them, players need to earn Player Points. Akuma unlocks at 2000 PP, Taskmaster 8000 PP.
2000 PP is roughly equivalent to a single playthrough of Arcade Mode. You also earn them by playing multiplayer, doing character challenges and spending time in training mode. Capcom estimates most players will have unlocked all the secret characters within a couple of hours, regardless of skill level,
Two more characters are to be revealed.
