New DLC packs announced just ahead of HD remake for Super Street Fighter II Turbo
Don't worry, Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (phew) is cleared for release on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade this November 25th and 26th, respectively. As part of the upcoming launch, Capcom opens a new online storefront for all their digital downloads, making them the first third party publisher to open a branded store over PSN and the New Xbox Experience (NXE). To leverage their branded digital destinations, Capcom calls forth the "Season of Street Fighter", a bundle of joy comprising of several Street Fighter-themed digital download packs available over both PSN and XBL. The first pack was already released last week in the form of Super Street Fighter Pinball FX, but there's more direct download titles on the way.
For example, perhaps you might be in the mood for some family friendly thrashing with... Street Fighter UNO Now our dream of unleashing Tiger Up-your-butts in UNO is fulfilled, and the game will feature appropriately themed backgrounds and music to help set that mood. Capcom also hints at another surprise title in the pipeline for the PSN "later in the holiday season".
Not all Season of Street Fighter download packs will be digitally distributed games. Capcom will also release the "Street Fighter Underground Remix", a direct-to-download music album featuring hip-hop tribute tracks "inspired by the Street Fighter series" from such artists as DJ Qbert, Hieroglyphics, Redman, Oh No, DJ Toure, Mistah FAB and Zion I. These tracks are exclusive to the PSN and will be free to download once the Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix game launches.
