It is likely that Capcom, famed developers of the Street Fighter and Resident Evil franchises will make a Street Fighter related announcement later today reports Fudzilla.
Although it is not certain yet what will be announced sources suggest that it will involve Street Fighter IV, which was released in early 2009, and not its sequel Street Fighter V – which has not yet been confirmed.
In August, Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono commented to Video Games Blogger that it is too early to be considering a sequel.
“It’s really early to be thinking about that because IV just came out in the arcades. I don’t really think anyone at Capcom is thinking about V just yet.”
He also hinted that the game may receive some additional content according to how it is received by the public.
“What we might see happen, depending on feedback from the arcade and what players think of this version of IV, we may or may not see upgrades to IV before we ever take the next big step to V. It’s really is just too early to tell, to be honest.”
This may be what Capcom is referring to. Although the game has already received DLC content, the company may be planning to announce a significant addition later today.
Thus far Street Fighter IV has been positively received by reviewers, holding an average score of 94% and 93% on PS3 and Xbox 360 respectively according to Metacritic.
