Street Fighter V review

Fight

Most importantly, Street Fighter V introduces a new type of move to the mix: the “V-gauge”, which gives each character a set of three new special moves when loaded.

This feature takes in-game combat to a whole new level, adding a revolutionary dimension to the already lightning-fast combat with which players can turn the tide of any battle at the last minute.

In addition to advances in combat, the latest addition to the street fighter the franchise also offers cross-platform play, so no matter which console you shake, you can take on any other player, making it a fighting game with one of the largest player pools in the world. In short, there is no lack of competition.

Thanks to its huge following, Street Fighter V has amassed one of the most solid competitive scenes in fighting games, which says something as it’s been out for more than three years already. It’s not uncommon for the hype surrounding fighting games, even long-standing ones like Street Fighter, to fade.

Final verdict

As for the cons, the only major criticism many players have made of Street Fight V is its relatively poor single-player content.

Also, while it is true that it lacks some substance when it comes to the plot, it is a Street Fighter game. They have never been known for superb storytelling, but are renowned for first-rate combat. Street Fighter V offers a lot more on this front.

When it comes to push pins, there’s really no downside to Street Fighter V. This is largely due to the fact that it delivers so well what you expect from it.

In essence, the game is the same fighting game that lifelong players have been rubbing their fingers for decades. But it has been finely refined and tweaked into the kind of smooth combat experience audiences expect today. Above all, it’s a blast to play – the distinctive quality that has made Street Fighter so successful all these years.
