Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition Update Hits PS4 a Couple of Days Early

Get ready

by Robert Ramsey Mon 8th Jan 2018

Capcom has confirmed dates and times for the release of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition -- in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand -- which will be launching as both a standalone game and as an update for existing Street Fighter V players. As we've known for some time, Arcade Edition releases on the 19th January. It'll be available both at retail and on the PlayStation Store.

Meanwhile, the Arcade Edition update for those who already own Street Fighter V will be available to download from either the 16th January or the 17th January -- Capcom hasn't quite made its mind up yet. Obviously, this means that the update is hitting at least a couple of days before Arcade Edition lands on shelves.

Are you looking forward to Arcade Edition? Will this be your first time playing Street Fighter V, or will it persuade you to return to the game? Practice those inputs in the comments section below.

Curious about the changes regarding how Fight Money can be obtained.

Nice, I'll install the game later. I bought the game on launch but so disappointed with the game that I uninstall it.

I hope there's plane animation in the arcade mode like sf2

Looking forward to getting a copy next week! Never played it because I am one of those "casuals" who was looking for more single player content.

Only what, a year late Capcom. It is sad to see how Capcom treats the IPS that got them to where they are today.

This update is the reason I'm no longer getting Dragon Ball FighterZ at launch.

I already own the game, but haven't played anywhere near enough to justify the purchase. Might as well get my money's worth.

Makes sense since we have already paid and waited for this.

I just gotta beat easy Survival with 4 characters and then try to complete trials to get as much FM as I can.

I actually cant wait for this, I just wish they had included all the additional charachters from the past 2 seasons for those who bought the game originally, but oh well!
