The Next Round of the Definitive Fighting Game Experience Combines 3D
Graphics with Classic Street Fighter Feel
SAN MATEO, Calif., Dec. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Capcom(R), a leading
worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today officially
announced development of Street Fighter(TM) IV, the next iteration of the
genre-establishing fighting game series. This marks the first new entry
announced in nearly eight years, following the acclaimed Street Fighter III
Third Strike.
In its amazing twenty year history, Street Fighter has revolutionized
the fighting genre and created a global legacy like no other. Few details
have been released on the new game, outside of a heart-pounding preview
trailer that set the gaming community on fire when it was released in
October on the official website, StreetFighterWorld.com.
Capcom is proud to announce the return of four classic "World Warriors"
in Street Fighter IV: returning favorites Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Dhalsim.

graphics (CG), while the game is played in the classic Street Fighter 2D
perspective with additional 3D camera flourishes. The traditional
six-button controls for the game will return, with a host of new special
moves and features integrated into the input system. Mixing tried-and-true
classic moves and techniques with all-new, never-before-seen gameplay
systems, Street Fighter 4 brings a brand new fighting game to fans the
world over.
Everything that made the legendary Street Fighter II a hit in arcades,
living rooms and dormitories all over the world has been brought to bear
here, with even more surprises. With the inclusion of Capcom's latest
advancements in new generation technology, Street Fighter IV promises to
deliver an extraordinary experience that will re-introduce the world to the
time-honored art of virtual martial arts.
