Month: April 2018

You can now get the 2018 CPT costumes for Sakura and Akuma — but the Ring of Power and Birdie’s outfit are still yet to be released.

In addition to the Darkstalkers crossover costumes for Juri, Urien, and Menat, and the extensive balance patch, Capcom had another addition to Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition to drop today. The Capcom Pro Tour 2018 Premier Pass is now available to purchase on both the PlayStation Store and Steam, featuring a host of CPT-themed goodies — but most prominently the CPT 2018 costumes for Sakura and Akuma, and Birdie’s costume (as designed by Capcom Cup champion MenaRD) and the “Ring of Power” stage still to come in the future.

Today’s server maintenance is scheduled to finish at 5:00 p.m. PT (though they are reports that some players are already able to log back into CFN at the time of publication); be sure to check out all this new content once the game is back online!

#CPT2018 DLC is available now on PSN & Steam.

Purchase Sakura & Akuma costumes for $6 each, or as part of the #SFVAE CPT 2018 Premier Package for $20.

CPT Stage & Champion's Choice costume will release at a later date

When Tekken 7 first launched in arcades, it came with Bandai Namco’s Tekken-Net service, first pioneered with Tekken Tag Tournament 2. Now, Bandai Namco has announced that they are ending the service for Tekken 7 in arcades on May 31, 2018.

Now, before anyone panics, take note that this is only for the “vanilla” version of Tekken 7 in arcades. For those who may not already know, Tekken 7 in arcades has received an updated version called Tekken 7 Fated Retribution. It’s this latter version that the home versions are based on, and this arcade version will still continue on the service.

The only arcade machines affected will be those who are running the original release of Tekken 7 that haven’t been updated to Fated Retribution. Tekken-Net service for these will end at exactly 7:00 a.m. Japan Time on May 31. These cabinets will no longer receive have access to online matchmaking, Banapassport card functionality, as well as Tekken-Net online website services. All such cabinets can then be identified by the game displaying the version number “X03” on the title screen.
