SDCC’10: Street Fighter/Tekken Crossover Titles Announced

leave a comment »

After being rumoured for the best part of the last month, Capcom and Namco Bandai unveiled their newest gaming megaton today in front of an awed audience at the San Diego Comic-Con.

Envisioned as two separate titles, Street Fighter Vs Tekken pits Capcom’s top street fighting pugilists against Namco’s top Tekken combatants. One title shall be using the seminal ‘2.5D’ Street Fighter IV fighting engine and unique ink-blot graphical style, while the other does so from the Tekken perspective, with the 3D fighting engine and graphical style of the latter used.

Predictably as a result, Capcom are working on the Street Fighter X Tekken title, while Namco Bandai are hard at work on the Tekken X Street Fighter title.

Most joyusly, the first media of this groundbreaking crossover has surfaced too, with VG247.com hosting the first images and debut trailer as can be seen at the link below:

The media is currently only representative of the Capcom effort, but even at this stage my inner fanboy is exploding out of my eyes and ears.

The crossover titles are due to arrive on 360 and PS3 at a time to be determined.

This is just… superb.
