UPDATE:

A few more tidbits have started trickling in following the game's official unveiling in Japan today. According to Street Fighter IV producer Yoshinori Ono, SSFIV will ship on a single game disc as opposed to arriving on the scene in the form downloadable content, and is currently pencilled for release in spring 2010 for PS3 and Xbox 360. Stay tuned for more details as they become available to us.

ORIGINAL ARTICLE:

French website JV247 has let the cat out of the bag in regards to tomorrow’s planned Street Fighter announcement, confirming Internet gossip that Capcom is indeed working on beat ‘em up follow-up Super Street Fighter IV.

According to the site, SSFIV takes place roughly a year after the events of its older brother, and throws in a host of extra combatants, including the return of veteran brawler, T Hawk.

New to the line-up meanwhile is bad girl Juri, who is apparently in league with Seth and under protection from T Hawk. Other new faces include Dudley, Ibuki, Cody, Adon, Dee Jay, Makoto, Guy and Hakan.

Elsewhere, speculation points to characters being able to unleash two Ultras this time around, one of them being the Air Ultra. Furthermore, it seems that the Bonus Stage may be on the cards again, while the game engine has supposedly undergone numerous tweaks to make it feel considerably different from SFIV.

We’ll have more as it breaks.

    Ahh! I knew I made the right decision when I decided to wait and not get SFIV, they always do this.

    But it will play exactly the same as street fighter has always done.

    No thanks I 'll stick to Tekken and more so Virtua Fighter.

    'while the game engine has supposedly undergone numerous tweaks to make it feel considerably different from SFIV. " Street Fighter 4 is perfect, I love the feel, plus with all the great games coming out I'll be giving this a miss. I dont know too many of these new characters either.

     Awesome, hopefully its not full price.  I hope they add a turbo mode or something.  Maybe add more supers.

    This could easily have been a DLC. But Capcom wants you to believe that this is a brand new game with a tweaked engine bla bla bla...

    • 6:26pm BST - September 28th, 2009

    This has clearly been in the works for some time now since the rumors of dee Jay and T. Hawk being DL characters Capcom vehemently denying it. Capcom are bleeders.

    i used to be able to sit and play for hours and hours on the mega drive and play street fighter2 not a ounce of bordom ...This struggles to get 15-20 mins out of me

     @14 A next(next) Gen rival schools sound like a very interesting idea indeed. That game was immense !!

    SF4 = waste of money

  29. fxa5209

    • 9:16pm BST - September 28th, 2009

    This needs to be a DLC, what else can you add to make it a better product. I hope it wont be a 60$ package, it is not funny to look like Halo ODST fans who paid full price for extra maps.

  30. Suley | SuLeY96

    • 9:38pm BST - September 28th, 2009

    I had SFIV and hated it. I probably willl super hate Super SFIV ;)

     Street Fighter 4 was fun and it FELT like street fighter but to me the visuals were kind of generic looking (i know that sounds weird) but the characters seemed kind of lifeless and didn't have much personality

  33. Trooper19281

    • 10:38pm BST - September 28th, 2009

    Well, considering that I am officialy bored after playing Street Fighter Alfa2 for weeks on the PSP, I will be wanting to see this!

    Hang on they said they have no plans to release new characters for SF4 and look at this it's basicallt SF4 with the so called DLC that wasn't going to happen what a way to scam even more coin out of people who florked full price for the original.

  39. invaliduser

    • 1:17am BST - September 29th, 2009

    I wouldnt pay 10 bucks for this crap

    • 3:21am BST - September 29th, 2009

    That's just plain ol BS. This should be DLC. I will not spend a dime on this game. Here's to hoping Capcom gets the Halo ODST effect with this title.

    MY HAT OFF TO YOU CAPCOM! YOU GUYS ARE NOW OFFICIALLY UNCOOL!

  43. PSU_fail

    • 5:47am BST - September 29th, 2009

    bad form, offering a whole new game, and no DLC...screw you nickel and dimers.

  44. Free_Agent

    • 6:19am BST - September 29th, 2009

     This is great news! Can't wait.

  45. SpyroViper

    • 9:14am BST - September 29th, 2009

    Then it'll be SSFIVTHFX

    Oh, how I do love Capcom's ways of 'paying for minor updates'
