Samurai Shodown has a confirmed release date on PlayStation 4, and as promised, the series makes its return in time for Evo 2019. The slick looking fighter launches on the 25th June in both North America and Europe -- but that's not all!
In what's quite an interesting move, if you buy Samurai Shodown before the 30th June -- whether it's a physical copy or digitally from the PlayStation Store -- you'll get the game's season pass completely free. While said season pass hasn't been detailed in its entirety yet, we do know that it'll include "six months" of DLC, with four additional playable characters being highlighted.
Having said all that, there is a "some regional restrictions may apply" disclaimer at the bottom of the press release, so you should probably double check before committing. We imagine that most regions will be absolutely fine, though.

I am bloody tempted!
@KALofKRYPTON We'll hopefully have a review before release!
samurai showdown is the best neo Geo fighting games ever.word up son
Man this game looks good. Can’t wait for this.
Looking forward to Samurai Shodown so glad they are bring out a new game i hope the fishing death moves are included.
I hope they still bring samurai shodown anthology out for PS4 as well as the wii controls suck and an update would be lovely.
Also looking forward to see what neo geo's next console looks like and fingers crossed they do it right.
Wow thats really cool. Wish more games would do this.
I can't say I've ever seen a game do this before, and it's working it's magic on me. I already wanted it, but I'm definitely getting it ASAP! Sorry, my dear wallet.
I am quite excited for this! Bit choked gen isnt in it though. Seems like a weird choice. Also i hope the online is as simple as sfv, tekken7 or mk and not a convoluted mess like arksystem games
Or how about they just add the characters to the initial release version instead, you know like how fighting games used to be before these companies began monetizing everything under the sun :/
I used to love fighting games until they started selling characters as DLC, Blazblue is the absolute worst offender, Capcom is doing their damndest to be the worse with SFV though.
