STREET FIGHTER V
Everyone is fired up for Street Fighter V coming to the PS4 and PC next Spring. Until then, you can sport the official SFV key art T-shirt, which features Ryu in a heroic pose, for $25.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I can fucks with that

 

[Dahbomb]

Lines up with that Ken Bogard rumor. They want SFV for EVO 2K16.

 

[Smooth Operator]

Nvm. So USF4 this spring and SFV next spring ? mmh

 

[Nimby]

I seriously doubt that.

 

[LowParry]

Oh really?

 

[CoyoteSpitfire]

Technically, the next Spring starts in 13 days. Get hyped.

 

[Clawww]

Long year ahead.

 

[biosnake20]

If they started developing the game around the time that street fighter arcade cabinet video was shown for PS4 that means when it goes gold in Spring 2016 it would have been in development for the usual "3 year cycle", which is usually a few months shy of 3 actual years.

 

[Filth]

LETS FIGHT LIKE GENTLEMANNNN

 

[Bugs Bunny]

Not surprising.

 

[Str0ngStyle]

I'm ok with this. Do I want it sooner? Abso-frigging-lutely. I also want it to be great, so if it needs to simmer for a bit, cool.

 

[Nimby]

Nvm. So USF4 this spring and SFV next spring ? mmh

I misread too. Still feels like the middle of Winter for me.

 

[TomShoe]

I'll admit, that's a fair amount earlier than I thought it would be. I thought it was only like 20% done at one point. I was thinking late 2016.

 

[LiK]

Technically, the next Spring starts in 13 days. Get hyped.

Haha

 

[The Sarcastic Dude]

Yeah, April 2016 seems like a safe bet. USF4 will probably have it's last year next year.

 

[Phat Michael]

Just say the month dickheads. Not everyone follows the same seasons. Not everyone even has 4 seasons. Hate when they assume everyone is in America.

I'd guess March or April though. Seems right.

 

[Bugs Bunny]

It's going to have less than 20 characters apparently so it's not that surprising. If this geta releaseed alongside Tekken 7...

 

[Moaradin]

I always expected it to be out before EVO next year.

 

[nikos]

Sounds about right. Arcade location tests will probably start around September or October.

 

[Kimosabae]

I thought this was known/had already been stated.

 

[SpiceMelange]

I have to wonder why they decided to reveal the project so early. The Nash build already looks so much better, it would have made a better first impression.

 

[jbug617]

makes sense. Probably going to be a smaller roster at the beginning and they will add on via updates like KI does.

 

[Neoxon]

As expected, I can wait.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

I guess this is cool, but I won't pick it up until the Super version.

 

[cackhyena]

It's easy to understand when you consider its unveiling. Considered a pretty decent get as an exclusive for a big Sony show.

To have something big for Sony at PSX. SF4 was revealed fairly early too.

 

[threelights]

Reasonable release date. Enough time for me to get a PS4 (and possibly a stick?)

Spoiler

Now just give me Makoto

 

[RedEther]

Just in time for next years EVO.

 

[Skilletor]

Good time for the fgc.

 

[BluePigGanon]

It really does seem like they're showing it way too early, then. Aren't they risking people being bored to death of seeing it before it's even out?

 

[RedAssedApe]

It really does seem like they're showing it way too early, then. Aren't they risking people being bored to death of seeing it before it's even out?

Bored to death with what? Short clips of Three unfinished characters and no idea what the gameplay systems are going to be? This isn't like a shooter where showing the campaign is going to ruin the game for you.

Ki and mk seem proof enough that fans eat these character reveals up.

 

[RocBase]

Nah, it'll be playable at many events to come no doubt. Gives them ample enough time to get more feedback/fine-tune balancing. If anything I assumed it'd release way later than Spring 2016.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

I guess this is cool, but I won't pick it up until the Super version.

There won't be one based on what was said at PlayStation Experience. All DLC I think.

 

[Phat Michael]

I'd guess March or April though. Seems right.

Cheers. Spring to me is Sept, Oct and Nov.

 

[BluePigGanon]

That's sorta silly. Yeah it's 3 characters and short clips NOW. But presumably they're going to continue the slow drip of information until release, which means more than a year of exposure to the game. That just seems odd to me and I wonder if gamers can maintain interest.

Smash Bros. has been doing exactly that for the last two games and it doesn't seem to be a problem. FG fans feed on speculation and poring over frames of animation to find minute differences between builds is something the community can basically do forever. There really isn't much in a fighting game that can be overexposed; these games are meant to be played and viewed over and over again for a long time.

 

[Qvoth]

spring next year? that's probably arcade release

 

[Mr. X]

New character reveal or gameplay stuff every month until release.

 

[Big Green Anus]

Is Ultra Street Fighter IV still coming this spring for PS4?

 

[ed_fusion]

I will wait for the Ultimate Super Ultra Street Fighter 5 Championship Edition Special Collection.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Cheers. Spring to me is Sept, Oct and Nov.

lol if that meant SFV were coming out here this year I'd take it

 

[Zophar]

Just say the month dickheads. Not everyone follows the same seasons. Not everyone even has 4 seasons. Hate when they assume everyone is in America.

Last I checked spring is also March/April/May for Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and all of Asia.

 

[Bugs Bunny]

There is no arcade release for SF5. Pretty sure there wont ever be.

 

[ShadyJ]

HYPE cannot be contained.

 

[Blackstarhat]

i knew it would be out by 2016.

 

[El Sabroso]

sounds like enough time for me so we get a good game

 

[QisTopTier]

SSF5 next next spring

 

[Bugs Bunny]

sounds like enough time for me so we get a good game

When in the history of Street Fighter was the first version of a game a "good" game? Alpha 1, World Warrior, New Generation, & Vanilla were all terrible.
