New costumes, gems, patches and more coming to Street Fighter X Tekken
Mar 16th
Yoshimitsu and Raven swap costumes with M Bison and Guy!
Hot on the heels of its March 9 release date, SFxT is about to kick off regular updates – meant to keep the experience fresh all through the year – with a ton of free and paid DLC. There’s a whole bunch o’ content coming, so let’s break it all down…
Up first on April 3 are Swap Costumes that take the “alternate costume” DLC idea one step further – instead of merely changing a character’s appearance, these outfits cross the fashion line by dressing SF characters as Tekken characters and vice versa. See Raven dress as Guy, Cammy as King and uh, Kuma as R. Mika…(?)
Swap Costumes are available for €0.99/£0.79/80 Microsoft Points each, or if you wanna dive in for the whole assortment you can pick up the Street Fighter or Tekken collection packs for €12.99/£9.99/1040 Microsoft Points each – buying one pack brings a great saving and grabbing both even more. April 3 also brings three free colour packs, each containing four new additions to the palette for added customization options. Topping off the April 3 additions are three free new quick combos, making for a total of five pre-programmed attack patterns. While spamming these pre-set combos is tempting, don’t forget each use saps some of your Cross Gauge!
Shortly after those items arrive, look for a free tournament support title update that will add a new and faster way to select your gems from the versus screen via a dial system. For all of you up late this coming Monday, our friends over at Capcom Unity will running a live stream this coming Monday at 23.00 GMT – head over to their Twitch TV page for details. This update will also include improvements to the online sound issues discussed in Ayano-san’s earlier blog.
Looking just a few more weeks beyond the tournament support title addition, the next big wave is a massive selection of free content delivered as a title update. This includes three new Assist Gem packs and six new Boost Gem packs, which adds over 60 gems to the selection pool. This sizable infusion of new gems exponentially increases the customisation options for every player, so we should see some interesting new loadouts once the DLC arrives. To that point, we’re also tossing in three more gem slots per character in which you can save your preferred loadouts. Finally, this update comes complete with a free replay analyser as well that lets you see you and your opponent’s vital statistics during a match.
The biggest additions come soon after the PlayStation Vita version launches later this year – the 12 characters debuting on Vita will come to consoles as a €19.99/£15.99/1600 Microsoft Points bundle. I know many were worried past character pricing would push the cost of this update sky high, so I’m happy to say Blanka, Sakura, Guy, Cody, Elena, Dudley, Alisa, Bryan, Christie, Jack, Lars and Lei will not break the bank.
One additional note – the dev team is also already working on solutions to the infinite combos currently making the rounds on YouTube, and will have them patched up once these other updates are out the door:
FREE
Nine new gem packs totaling 60+ new gems
Replay analyzer
Tournament support for gem selection
Three new quick combo pre-sets
Three additional gem loadout slots
Three new color packs with four colors each
PAID
Swap Costumes – €0.99/£0.79 (80 MSP) each or in two €12.99/£9.99 (1040 MSP) Street Fighter and/or Tekken packs
DLC characters – €19.99/£15.99 (1600 MSP) for all 12 new fighters
The great debate!

LES POIDS-LOURDS DU COMBAT SE RENCONTRENT DANS STREET FIGHTER X TEKKEN
Jul 26th
C’est désormais officiel, tout le monde retenait son souffle… Street Fighter x Tekken est en développement sur les consoles PlayStation 3 et Xbox 360. Ce titre marquera l’histoire puisque pour la toute première fois, les combattants de ces deux monuments du jeu de combat se rencontreront.
En utilisant la même technologie que pour Street Fighter IVTM et Super Street Fighter IVTM, les personnages de TekkenTM tels que Kazuya Mishima et Nina Williams arriveront dans l’univers de Street FighterTM en ayant été ré-imaginés pour adopter le style si apprécié de ces titres incontournables. Ils conserveront bien entendu leurs caractéristiques uniques et leurs mouvements favoris, dans un face-à -face avec les emblématiques combattants de la licence Street FighterTM, dans ce qui promet d’être l’affrontement ultime.
Sans plus attendre le trailer :

‘Street Fighter X Tekken' Announced. World Rocked on it's Axis.
Jul 24th
It’s Saturday Night and i’m working, but it’s ok as i don’t mind as i bring you the Earth shattering news that Street Fighter X Tekken is in development for the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and the Xbox 360â„¢ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®. The title will make history as fighters from these two bastions of the fighting genre come together for the very first time.
Utilising the same technology that powered Street Fighterâ„¢ IV & Super Street Fighterâ„¢ IV, Tekkenâ„¢ characters such as Kazuya Mishima and Nina Williams will make the transition into the Street Fighterâ„¢ universe having been re-imagined using the much loved art style of these seminal titles; while retaining their unique characteristics and signature moves as they go head to head with classic brawlers from the Street Fighter franchise in what promises to be the ultimate match up.
As in Street Fighter IV, gameplay will feature fully realised 3D character models battling for domination in both new and familiar highly detailed 2D environments that are brought to life with engaging animations. In addition to modes such as Versus and Training that will feature new enhancements to make the fighting experience more in-depth and enjoyable, Street Fighter X Tekken will include Tag Team combat where players select two fighters to deliver knockout assist attacks and special combos.
The announcement, which took place at Comic-Con in San Diego in front of thousands of Street Fighter fans, was made by the Producer of Street Fighter X Tekken, Yoshinori Ono, and Tekken series Director, Katsuhiro Harada. Commenting on the origins of this project Yoshinori Ono said: “This is history we’re making. Two fighting games that have rivalled each other are finally standing on the same stage. This isn’t just a showdown between Tekken and Street Fighter, but a decisive battle for Capcom and Namco Bandai Games. So I’m going to give it my all.â€
