Puzzle Fighter Game App Launches Worldwide This Week

CAPCOM announced on Monday that it will release Puzzle Fighter game for iOS and Android devices worldwide later this week.

CAPCOM's Vancouver division is developing the game.

The game includes characters such as Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Blanka, (Street Fighter), X (Mega Man), Morrigan (Darkstalkers), Jill Valentine (Resident Evil), and Frank West and Chuck Greene (Dead Rising). The player can choose one main character and two assist characters that each have their own strengths and special abilities.

CAPCOM previously released a similar game titled Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo in 1996. The game similarly features a crossover cast from their various franchises (the title is a parody of Super Street Fighter II Turbo, and does not indicate the existence of other Puzzle Fighter games). CAPCOM later took the 2D sprites from that game and made it into a fighting game titled Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix (Pocket Fighter) in 1997.
