That's almost 16 million copies across all versions and billions in arcade player sales. Also, Street Fighter 6 is on-going. It'll no doubt reach 10 million at least by the time SF7 comes around.
Congrats Capcom well deserved
I've been out of the loop for a long time. Is this game good?
It's been incredibly well received! Polished, accessible for new players, and launched with a ton of content. Especially for a fighting game. If Metacritic scores mean anything to you, it was in the low 90s across all platforms. Highest was PC and PS5 versions at 92. So it's one of the highest rated games of the year :)
Decent numbers. Will pick this up once they release my boy...Akuma :P
