Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



The first new Street Fighter game in about a decade was announced today, and now we have a trailer straight from Capcom and GameVideos, as promised.

The highly stylized video shows Ken and Ryu beating each other down in a moonlit forest setting. It looks more like an animation than anything else, and it doesn't tell us much, but it does a pretty damned good job of getting Street Fighter fans like myself excited. The Hadoken at the end gave me a million nerdy goosebumps.

Enjoy.

Oh man, how awesome would it be if they actually made the in game graphics like that. 2d + painting stylized figures = awesome game

That's pretty hot. Looks like some kind of cell shading, though. I hope that they stay far away from polygons... that would completely ruin the Street Fighter vibe. Now, if they can make the sprite-based animation that sort of quality, I would pretty much do a cartwheel.

I've said it and I'll say it again: paint splatter effects are this generation's neon triangles and stretch pants.

Otherwise, lookin' gooooood!

FUCK YEAH!

I just hope it's still 2d. Though I wouldn't call blasphemy if it was cell shaded like this trailer.

Not bad... (but not a new RE)

Hope they will bring the franchise to the wii too... (not only for x360 and ps3)

Beautiful animation and art style, BUT will the game feature the same artistic flare?

Normally, highly stylised, loose artwork is lost in translation when converted to game graphics, let's hope they pull this one off.

Um, there already IS a new RE coming out, sirpalee. It's called RE5. Get in the loop.

As far as the graphics are concerned... shit. This style would be off the wall ridiculous. I just dunno how good I'd be at playing if I was constantly licking my screen while it was on.

As far as gameplay. Just stick to 2D mechanics. Crazy ass 3D visuals, though... I'm all for 'em.

Haterade:

This trailer isn't really representative of anything. Why can't they come out and show the art style? Blah, Blah, Blah...

Truth:

Awesome video, looking forward to more news on this!

I love the art style used for the trailer, but I wish they'd have some more game info, like if they're continuing a legendary series or making it a horrible 3d shitfest.........again.

That fight was just awesome, I'm not even a big street fighter fan. Though I would have liked Ryu to say hyduken.

Hey, didn't I say SF4 last time? Seems I was right. Glad to see it after so long, I just hope to god its actually 2D, notice no actually footage was shown. If 3D I hope its a vast improvement of previous PS efforts.

I really wouldn't be totally against it being 3d if not for the EX series being so fucking awful. On the other hand, Capcom HAS proven it can make good 3d fighters (Power Stone, Tech Romancer, Rival Schools, etc) and I doubt that they'd let the official Street Fighter turn out as bad as EX was.

But still, there's not that many 2d fighters out there anymore and I'd love to see a new one that takes full advantage of today's graphics. What better one than a new Street Fighter?

MvC3 would have been cool too but it's not going to happen. Capcom doesn't have the license for Marvel characters anymore, EA does.

I just don't give a shit about SF, Haven't since Super Street Fighter II. I was hoping the Megaton announcement would be something I would actually play... Or at least care about. It's not. Hence my ambivalence.

Honestly though, what would you expect a titanic announcement would have been other than a new SF game?
