Capcom was expecting the game to sell at least 2 million copies by the end of their fiscal year 2016. Upon release, the game received mixed reviews, with critics praising the game’s graphics and gameplay, but was criticized for its lack of content and characters, as well as its technical issues such as broken servers at launch and software bugs. The game was powered by Unreal Engine 4, and had a beta test prior to its launch. A story mode and additional characters were added through updates and downloadable content.Īccording to Capcom, the game was a PlayStation 4 console exclusive as both Sony and Capcom had “the same vision for the growth potential in the fighting game space”. The game features 16 characters at launch, with four of them being new to the series. The game also introduces the “V-Gauge”, which builds as the player receives attacks and adds three new skills. Similar to the previous games in the Street Fighter series, Street Fighter V features a side-scrolling fighting gameplay system. The game was initially announced for Linux, but this version was never released. Street Fighter V is a street fighting game developed by Capcom and Dimps and published by Capcom for the PlayStation 4 and Microsoft Windows in 2016.
