After a look back at the origins of Street Fighter itself in their prior retrospective video, Capcom now turns its attention to the groundbreaking sequel/prequel series, Street Fighter Alpha. James Chen returns to walk us through this showcase of what each new Alpha title brought to the franchise — in style, story, and gameplay mechanics.

Of course, we’ll be playing these games again when Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection arrives on May 29th! Now that the Street Fighter II and Alpha series have been shown off in retrospective videos, expect to see Street Fighter III further stretch Street Fighter’s horizons in the near future.

Capcom is hinting at a Cody reveal for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition — possibly at Combo Breaker this weekend

Looks like Cody is almost ready to break back into Street Fighter.

The time is drawing near for another character reveal for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition — if Capcom’s social media channels are any indication. As per their usual form, they’ve updated their avatar images on Facebook and Twitter to something that many fans of a certain Metro City brawler have been waiting to see…

Cody is possibly the most-anticipated returning fighter for Season 3 — outside of those that still bend the knee to the King of Muay Thai. While an updated avatar doesn’t promise anything, the timing is ideal to drop a trailer for Cody at this weekend’s Combo Breaker 2018; not only is it a big FGC destination and a fantastic event to begin with, but it is the next Premier event on the Capcom Pro Tour circuit, so keep your eyes peeled for a little something extra after the Street Fighter V top 8 has played out!
