Abstract
In the context of postmodernity, individual identity is actively constructed from relations of affection and consumption, such as media consumption. Digital games enable players to express themselves and feel represented through their controllable protagonists. Through a Peircean semiotic analysis of three characters, the present work proposes to investigate the evolution of Brazil and the Brazilian people representation in the Japanese franchise Street Fighter throughout the 30 years of the series. Elucidating at the end how each of these qualifies and symbolizes the Brazilian people from different national characteristics instilled in the foreign imagination
