The theme of the fighters was the hardest hit to the player, but not the only one: among the huge variety of paid content in the game we found the possibility of acquiring combos editors, additional tools for combos editors, extra colors to customize the fighters that we already have and, to top it all, really powerful gems that totally broke the competitive balance of the game.ĭefinitely, Street Fighter X Tekken showed the less friendly face of a Capcom that took advantage of this celebration of the legacy of two historical sagas to introduce monetization policies that were not well received by anyone. From there an attempt was made to find an intermediate point. And, unsurprisingly, being the Capcom version this one sweeps home: the six-button punch and kick scheme as well as the 2D Street Fighter fighting scenarios served as the basis for the game. In the playable, the first great challenge of Street Fighter X Tekken is to establish a balance between two very different ways of understanding arcade fighting. Something is happening in the most remote corner of the planet and you are not going to wait to be told about it. But, of course, other legends of the rings and street fighting such as Zangief, Blanka, Poison, Bryan Fury, Lilli or Paul Phoenix, they can simply be curious. Which, unsurprisingly, will see Chun Li, Jin Kazama, Guile or Heihashi Mishima heading to Antarctica as well. Bison, see enormous potential in this discovery. Some, like Ryu, are concerned about the parallels of this evil energy with the dark hadou while others, like Kazuya and M.
Inevitably, the so-called Pandora’s box causes a knock-on effect among the best fighters in the world for different reasons. On the other hand, in the midst of that chaos that has begun to unleash globally, two indomitable forces instinctively come to the call of the box: the savage Akuma and the powerful Ogre. Cases have been detected worldwide of individuals who suddenly acquire unimaginable power, becoming more and more aggressive.Ī phenomenon that seems to affect the fighters especially and that, logically, has made both Shadaloo and the Mishima Corporation decide to turn their attention to the events taking place at the South Pole. While attempts are still being made to find out its strange nature, its appearance has unleashed a mysterious wave of violence. Street Fighter X Tekken: an absolutely spectacular crossoverĪ strange box with indecipherable engravings has been found in Antarctica. Not only looking for the balance between both sagas, but also betting on making the most spectacular combats.Īnd for that, Yoshinori Ono had to open Pandora’s box. The fighting system had been completely rethought and arranged to offer a different sensation. Now, the gameplay is typical of Street Fighter X Tekken.įrom the first fight you can tell that this is not a Street Fighter IV with a different selection of fighters and a handful of superficial changes. In fact, on an aesthetic level, the World Warriors looked much the same, while the Tekken fighters had adapted with remarkable success to the universally known visual style of the Osaka company. For the occasion, the Osaka team started with a later and improved version of the technology used to move Street Fighter IV. They say whoever hits first does it twice, and Capcom took the initiative. The friendship of both Japanese creatives was palpable and their way of generating a strong sense of rivalry between both sagas, too. While both producers had paved the way for a separate big announcement, the performance included an interruption from Harada on the Street Fighter IV panel at the San Diego show giving away copies of Tekken 6 to attendees. Logically, that announcement was a spectacle in itself. While in Tekken X Street Fighter the iconic Ryu, Chun Li and company will fight under the formula of the Mishima clan saga.Street Fighter X Tekken would take the fighters of the Bandai Namco saga to combat in 2D scenarios.
That we were more than used to seeing crossovers as unexpected as impossible by Capcom did not cushion the brutal blow on the table: taking advantage of the 2010 Comic-Con, producers Yoshinori Ono and Katsuhiro Harada, who had cemented a hilarious rivalry between the fans For fighting games, they announced the development of two new games. Although, in fairness, it should have been two. The result? A wild crossover with very interesting ideas. Not in a brotherly way, not through competitive rivalry, but eager to show which of the two factions was more powerful. At a time when both Street Fighter and Tekken had made a triumphant return after prolonged absences and very rare appearances, Capcom’s World Warriors and the most iconic participants of the Iron Fist tournament decided to iron out their rough edges by getting knuckled in the process.
