Super Street Fighter IV is a forthcoming competitive fighting game currently being produced by Capcom. It is an updated version of/sequel to Street Fighter IV scheduled to be released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 as a stand-alone product. Originally set to be released in Spring 2010, Capcom recently delayed the game to be released sometime after April 2010 with no official release date being given yet.[1]
Development
Proof of Super Street Fighter IV was first made public accidentally when the German version of GamePro magazine took pictures of Yoshinori Ono in which a game, supposedly Street Fighter IV, is seen featuring T. Hawk and a new logo with a big metallic S behind the Street Fighter logo, much like the Super Street Fighter II logo.[2]
Capcom officially hinted at the game when they opened a teaser site in their official Japanese website.[3] An official announcement was made on September 28, 2009, along with a spring 2010 release date, for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Having been deemed as too large an update to be deployed as DLC, the game was made into a stand-alone title, but is intended to carry a price tag lower than that of a full retail game. Capcom also hinted at bonus features for people who already own Street Fighter IV.[4]
The game is planned to feature ten additional characters, as well as tweaks and changes to the existing ones, such as new ultra combos.[5] Among the added characters are T. Hawk and Dee Jay[4], who were initially intended to be in the original Street Fighter IV but later dropped.[6] Also revealed was Juri, an all new character, along with Adon from the original Street Fighter, and Cody and Guy from Final Fight, characters who were last featured in Street Fighter Alpha 3.
The game will feature a few additional online modes, including Team Battle with up to 8 players, Replay Channel, which allows players to view and save replays from around the world, and Endless Battle, in which the winner plays against a rotating group of players. The game also sees the return of the Car and Barrel Bonus Stages from the Street Fighter II series. A downloadable Tournament mode will also feature.[7][8]
Additional characters
It is confirmed that "roughly eight"[9] characters will be added to the character roster from Street Fighter IV. T. Hawk and Dee Jay (both from Super Street Fighter II, completing the whole cast from the Street Fighter II series) have been confirmed, along with a new character, Juri. Juri is a young South Korean woman who works for Seth's organization, S.I.N., and uses Taekwondo as her fighting style along with an energy-boosting device implanted inside her left eye called the "Feng Shui Engine".[10] Adon from the original Street Fighter, as well as Cody and Guy from Final Fight have also confirmed (all three being based particularly on their Street Fighter Alpha incarnations).
