Street Fighter V Servers Down for Maintenance Today, in Anticipation of the New Skies of Honor Stage

As expected: new content means an SFV server shutdown day.

Those looking forward to flying high in Street Fighter V’s new Skies of Honor stage will have to wait until 4:00 PM PST, as Capcom has shut down the SFV servers for the usual maintenance window that has come to accompany the addition of such new content to the game.
