Happy 8th anniversary!
Capcom has celebrated the 8th anniversary of Street Fighter 5 with an apology for the game’s state at launch.
“Street Fighter V has celebrated its 8th anniversary since its release,” reads a social media post translated from Japanese.
“From the beginning to the middle of the release, there were network issues, lack of content, etc,” Capcom continued. “We are truly sorry for the content that did not meet the expectations of many of you.”
The post continues on to say that the Street Fighter 5 dev team did “a lot of self-reflection and worked hard to resolve the issues as much as possible,” citing 45 playable characters at the game’s wrap-up.
Capcom, of course, said learnings transitioned over to its sequel, Street Fighter 6. We, like most others, applauded the most recent fighter in the franchise at launch.
Street Fighter 5 is currently available on Windows PC and PS4, while Street Fighter 6 is currently available on Windows PC, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PS5. We reviewed the most recent game in the franchise right here.
