Street Fighter V is a head-to-head 2D fighting game where you choose a fighter and face an opponent in rounds. Each character has a personal story and unique training challenges.
Combat combines basic attacks with Special Attacks, EX Special Attacks, and powerful Critical Arts. V-Skills build the V-Gauge, which can fuel V-Triggers for character-specific moves or V-Reversals to interrupt an opponent’s offense.
Play Arcade, Team Battle, and Extra Battle modes, or take on character stories and the cinematic story. Online options include Ranked and Casual Matches and Battle Lounges; the game also supports cross-play between PlayStation 4 and Steam. Fight Money can be used to purchase additional characters, costumes, and stages.
Players who enjoy Street Fighter V often praise its responsive, tactical fighting, the variety of its character roster, and the distinct options offered by the V-System. Some describe learning a character and improving over time as rewarding, and several say later editions and updates made the game feel fuller than it did at launch. Reviews are mixed on the story and online experience, with some players also criticizing character and content pricing or availability.
