Sfiv Ultra

Ultra Street Fighter IV has been dealt a confirmed release date on PlayStation 4, and the good news is that it's not very far away. The brawler will smash up Sony's newest console on the 26th May in both Europe and North America.

The next-gen re-release will set you back $24.99, which we assume will equate to around £20 here in the UK. Strangely enough, the source doesn't mention a retail release, instead only writing that the title will be available at that price digitally.

It's sounding like a great point to jump in for beginners, though, as the game will include every single piece of DLC released so far, which makes the budget price all the more attractive.

However, perhaps the most important news here, at least for you hardcore players, is that the PS4 re-release won't succumb to the slight input lag found in the PS3 version of Street Fighter IV, which was enough to see that edition get dropped from fighting game tournaments such as EVO. Hurrah!
