Street Fighter V 5 PS4 PlayStation 4 1

Got plans tonight? Cancel them, as the Street Fighter V beta's coming back online. Capcom's announced that it intends to run a series of region specific server stress tests today and tomorrow, and you'll need to be ready to fight from 16:00PM BST on both days to participate. The servers will be shut down at midnight on each occasion.

At the moment this taster is limited to just Europe, and North America and Asia will only get in on the action once it's considered a success. Of course, this is totally separate from the promised five days of beta time, which were cut short earlier in the year after the company's online infrastructure seemingly set on fire.

"We would like to reiterate that all data received during each regional stress test will help us to ensure that the game performs at an optimal level," a spokesperson for the publisher said. You won't need a new code in order to access the beta – just ensure that you've got the original client installed and updated to the latest patch.
