Street Fighter V getting a new physical release, "Champion Edition All Characters Pack" (announced for Japan only for now)
- Thread starter jett
- Start date
As someone who jumped ship amidst initial concerns regarding there not being much content at launch, is there a general consensus for how the game turned out with all the post-launch support? Thinking of jumping back...
It is excellent.
Tons of content if you want SP experience and if MP then there is tons there too.
The CE version has over 200+ skins and over 40 fighters if I remember right. There are also the free updates like 5 arcade routes for SP each with their own ending, MK style story mode and individual story mode for each character.
It's probably one of the best current fighting games, and that's coming from me who thought the launch was terrible. They did well in fixing the issues people had.
If content was your main concern, then no need to worry. The game is pretty packed with characters, stages, costumes, trials, etc...

Pity its just another voucher. This was the last chance to get a full on disc version of the game... oh well.
Vastly better. Character roster is large and varied, some nice single player stuff (though arguably not as good as other games) and the one thing that's the most important - the gameplay/combat itself is absolutely excellent. They've added/tweaked a few mechanics that make things way more entertaining as of the last season or two.
I wish they could just add two more characters just for Perfect Symmetry
Game is a heckuva lot more meaty than launch with multiple Arcade Routes to battle through and a lot more variety in battles due to the giant roster now. A lot more stage to play on as well for visual variety to. The Music was always great and still remains great (Except for Juri's Theme) The netcode is... passable. But the player base is healthy so you will be able to find matches without issue online. They added in a couple more mechanics for battling as well. Every character has 2 V-Skills and 2 V-Triggers now, as well as V-Shifts for more defensive options to spend your V Gauge on too.
I'd give it a good recommendation, especially a package like this that has just about every piece of content in the game with it (I dunno if it has the Capcom Pro Tour costumes or the Fighting Chance ones).
I agree, it's disappointing. At least it's not Tekken 7 situation, with all the missing content in the new release.
It doesnt get the Pro Tour and Fighting Chance stuff, it does get everything else though.

Haggar and Necro please

FYI, as is the case with these final releases this will be the last year or so before SF6 is released. If you want to play SFV the sooner the better. By the time SF6 releases in late 2022 or early 2023 (which I think is the realistic release date) the matchmaking will be ghost town.
Edit: Well except for the 100 or so hardcore players that will keep playing it. But you probably wouldn't want to play those folks as a brand new player.

I played it recently, wanted to check a little thing and learned they put more combo opportunities, with Chun li at least.
With the champion edition, the stage select is no longer a locked galore and there's lot of characters, I even have a locked Eleven on th right, don't know what he's doing here...
Problem is that was between lot of third strike sessions...
I already wasn't passionate about it but now I was also striked by how slow it is.
And the clay style...
lol. i missed that.I know. That's what the /s was for

That's where his newfound powers come from!
lol it's actually a towel and we don't really know why
Wish it was an upgraded PS5 version. but I guess this is good for those who haven't already picked up the game and are looking for an all in one package. Season 5 is the best the game has ever been. The game started off rough, but despite its technical issues, SFV is one of the funnest Street Fighters to play.
Low health Daigo is possibly the most dangerous low health Boss in fighting games ever. He's done this time and time again to the best around. Never ceases to amaze. Legend.

It's interesting that Capcom's official website for the All Character Pack (https://www.capcom.co.jp/sfv/product.html#allCharacter) let's you know that you can get the Championship Edition + Season V Premium Pass which is almost the same content (minus some wallpapers) on PS4/5 and Steam and it is currently CHEAPER than Pack (6000 yen).
The Japanese PSN store has the bundle for 4700 yen now (https://store.playstation.com/ja-jp/product/JP0102-CUSA02102_00-SFVCES5PPBUND000) and I believe Steam has it at 4800 yen now. Since the content is mostly DLC codes anyways there really is no point to wait for the bundle to come out and you can save some money at while you are at it.
Also, that cover looks like someone copied Shinkiro's style (most notable the overwhelming orange-ish background hue) using the in-game models.

Let me put it this way. if
It's such a character and gameplay systems -rich game, You could spend 20 years mastering every single character.
Truly, I would be ecstatic with having 12 characters in a fighting game with the kind of diversity of play games like Street Fighter, Guilty Gears or Killer Instinct provide.
Having a ton of copy/paste characters is not the goal. The goal is characters with truly different normal moves and truly different gameplays.
But yeah, lots and lots of single player content is in now. The game never played better.

They're buttering us up for when Luke is front and center on the cover of Street Fighter 6. Good looks, Capking. More blondes please
