During their panel at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, Capcom wasted our time by revealing a secret character hidden within Ultra Street Fighter II: Shin Akuma Yes, the fact that Shin Akuma is unlockable was the big news out of Capcom's panel The process of unlocking Shin Akuma is a little bit more contrived than[...]

One to chew over involves Street Fighter V as game producer Yoshinori Ono admits another fighting title influenced the way they developed the game In an interview with IGN, Ono discussed how the reboot of Mortal Kombat in 2011, with a refocused storyline, cutscenes, and interactions, helped change the way Street Fighter V was created and[...]

On may 30, Capcom will be dipping back into the nostalgia pool again for fans and giving them a classic stage reimagined for Street Fighter V . The last time they did this we received the Thailand stage, which aside from the religious music that had to be taken out, was pretty much a perfect throwback for[...]

So, of course, I was stoked when PDP sent me these two Pixel Pals in the mail for review, both of them being Ryu and Chun-Li from Street Fighter! First off, let's get to the obvious: These are essentially night light statues that you put up on your shelf or desk or wherever you'd like[...]

Capcom pulled the latest DLC map for Street Fighter V, the Thailand Temple Hideout Stage, due to the fact that the backing music track that you hear as you fight has some unintentional religious references Rather than offend anyone, the company wisely pulled the map so they could change out the music and put it[...]

Capcom 3, and he's really hitting his stride in Street Fighter V His day at the event was already looking splendid as he rolled into his match with Brian "bjUNCHAINED" Jeon Gonzalez was basically set up to win hands down, especially since Jeon already fell to him early on and needed a major comeback with straight[...]

Yesterday Boon teased that we just might get a Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter crossover Old school arcade fans might be able to finally play the two mainstay franchises in the same game Would be pretty awesome, if we ever get it.

Street Fighter V, while praised for being a great fighting game, came under fire early due to… well, not having much game there Story mode didn't come until later, and so many features were missing at launch. If you feel like you've missed the train now the game has gotten its act together, perhaps don't[...]

Street Fighter V is certainly beginning to pick up steam (finally) in terms of releases, and it seems like new fighters and updates are coming thick and fast.

Street Fighter V is in the middle of getting six post release characters up at the moment, and we have thus far seen Guile and Alex It's time get to the half way point though as the third character has just been announced. The returning young ninja Ibuki will be coming to the game, and it[...]

Besides Blanka, Guile is perhaps the most recognizable character in the franchise not in the Street Fighter V. Thankfully he is on his way though Capcom have announced the character is incoming for the title He seems to have dropped the military garb for something more akin to a cop here, but his hair game, as[...]

By most accounts, Street Fighter V is an excellent fighting game I've heard so much about the mechanics of the title and how they have pleased fans of the series. I have certainly also heard a lot about how much the game is missing When the game launched, it was without many features, like a competent[...]
