Following the premature leak for Street Fighter V yesterday, Sony has gone and confirmed the game as a Playstation 4 console exclusive.
“When we first began working on the vision of what’s next in the Street Fighter franchise, we reached out to PlayStation,” Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono said during Sony’s Playstation Experience event. “It was clear to match the passion of Street Fighter fans around the world, we needed the combined strength of both Capcom and PlayStation. On that note, it gives me great pleasure to officially announce that Street Fighter V is coming and it will be exclusive to PlayStation 4 and PC.”
Sony is partnering with Capcom in regards to the development of the game, and they’re also making both the PlayStation 4 version cross-play compatible with PC version. To reiterate the exclusivity of the game, Sony’s Adam Boyes said:
