Several New Street Fighter X Tekken Details Emerge

Several New Street Fighter X Tekken Details Emerge

None

Yesterday, we were shown a new Street Fighter X Tekken trailer that revealed Dhalsim, Steve Fox, Yoshimitsu, and Poison (of all people) as a playable characters. Today, we are getting even more info about the massive upcoming Capcom/NAMCO crossover project. Yet another trailer came out, showing what we all expected once we saw Poison. Hugo, the wrestler who Poison acts as a hype-girl for, is also a playable character in the game, and he is as big and chunky as he ever was.

Now, many of you may remember that Hugo and Poison originally came from Final Fight before crossing over to the Street Fighter universe. Other Final Fight characters who made the transition were Cody and Guy, who both were playable in the Street Fighter Alpha series and Super Street Fighter IV. They too will be playable in Street Fighter X Tekken, and all it took was Haggar getting punked by King to get them to join the action.



A new gameplay mechanic was also revealed yesterday, a sort of tag team combo mode. Not only are you able to tag in the middle of a super, you are able to temporarily merge your life bar with your partner’s and fight with both characters on the screen at once. Just how this mechanic works has not yet been announced, but it appears to be some sort of desperation mechanic.

Capcom promises to reveal even more about the game soon, so keep your eyes peeled.
