Nintendo announced during its Nintendo Direct presentation on Wednesday that Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers game will launch for the Nintendo Switch on May 26.
Nintendo also released a new video showcasing the different play modes in the game. The modes include a "classic style" mode, a "local battle" mode, an "internet battle" mode, a "buddy fight mode", and a "Fire! Hadōken" mode. The game will also include a gallery for viewing official artwork for the game.
CAPCOM previously streamed the trailer for the game highlighting the functionality of the Switch features with the gameplay.
Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers will include 19 characters, including two new characters: Evil Ryu and Violent Ken. Players can play the game in the Switch's TV mode, table mode, or handheld mode. The game will also feature a "buddy mode" allowing two people to play together against the computer.
Players can choose to play the game from two different graphics: the "new generation" graphics using the character sprites drawn by Udon Entertainment artists that originally appeared in 2008's Super Street Fighter II: Turbo HD Remix, or the "classic generation" graphics using the pixel art style of the original 1991 Street Fighter II: The World Warrior game.
