Street Fighter X Tekken Hits Retail Hard Today
SAN MATEO, Calif.— Mar. 6, in the year of our Lord 2012
— Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video
games, is pleased to confirm that Street Fighter® X Tekken® is
now available at North American retail for the PlayStation®3

entertainment system game scheduled for the fall.
The latest addition to the Street Fighter® family, Street
Fighter X Tekken delivers the ultimate tag team match up
featuring 38 iconic characters from each franchise - one of the
most hearty character line ups in fighting game history! With
the addition of new gameplay mechanics, the acclaimed fighting
engine from Street Fighter® IV has been refined to suit the
needs of both Street Fighter and Tekken players alike. The
power-packed game also sees the introduction of the innovative
Gem system, a strategic new way to customize and enhance the
fighting experience.
Street Fighter X Tekken also introduces an all-new Scramble
Mode, where four separate players can control each of the four
characters on screen, for the ultimate battle royale both online
or offline.
The retail version of Street Fighter X Tekken will be the only
disc-based version consumers will need to own and all future
upgrades will come from post-launch DLC.
Street Fighter X Tekken is rated T for Teen by the ESRB and
carries an MSRP of $59.99.
