During Capcom’s Super Street Fighter 4 panel at Comic-Con, a Street Figher X Tekken trailer was shown, making the game official.
Every self-respecting gamer has had some exposure to at least one of these titles in the past and most people have a preference. For the first time, you’ll be able to pit your favourite fighters from each series against each other.
“The announcement came in what almost sounds like the promotion for an epic wrestling match — the proceedings of the panel were suddenly interrupted (very deliberately, of course) by producers of the Tekken series, and this was followed by a trailer that made the game official. Evidently SSF4 producer Yoshinori Ono first approached Tekken 6 producer Katsuhiro Harada about the idea, since Ono heard Harada was a Street Fighter fan.”
What’s really cool is that there will be two versions of the game released: Street Fighter X Tekken, made by Capcom and that will play more in the style of Street Fighter and Tekken X Street Fighter, made by Namco that will play more in the style of, why yes, Tekken.
You can see the announcement trailer here. The game will be available on both PS3 and Xbox 360.
Cool or what?
