With March 6th quickly closing in, Capcom has finally announced the final four characters for Street Fighter X Tekken. None of these are huge surprises for longtime fans of either series as they are either fan favorites or staples for both series. M. Bison and Akuma round out the Street Fighter roster as Jin and Ogre make their way over to team Tekken.
M. Bison, still carrying the improper name and the original boss of Street Fighter II, makes his way to the title. Akuma who has made his presence felt in almost every Street Fighter or Capcom vs. title since his creation also stands on the Street Fighter side of things, looking to be the opposition to Tekken’s Ogre. Both Jin and Ogre come to Tekken’s side of things, an interesting combination to be announced together with the history of the two characters with Ogre killing Jin’s mother. All four combatants can be seen in the trailers below.
Capcom has confirmed as well that the PC version of Street Fighter X Tekken will be released on May 11. The PlayStation Vita SKU has still not be given a release date.
In addition to all this, Capcom is launching Cross Assault on February 22nd, a week long reality show pitting top players against each other as they try to compete for $25,000 in prizes.

February 15th can’t get here fast enough. We know we have our preorders locked down for Marvel vs. Capcom 3: The Fate of Two Worlds already but the announcements of more characters just further wets our appetites. Now confirmed to be a part of the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 family are the returning Akuma and the newcomer the Taskmaster.
Not surprising, Akuma makes his return to Marvel vs. Capcom 3. The Street Fighter legend has proven himself a formidable foe for Ken and Ryu in games past and it only makes sense that he’d be coming back after the series’ long hiatus. Check out some images and video below of Akuma’s return to HD glory.
A new wildcard thrown into the Marvel vs. Capcom 3 mix comes in the form of Taskmaster. Largely regarded as a joke until recently, Taskmaster has been given a new life at Marvel. After being handpicked by Norman Osborn to lead his version of the Initiative, Taskmaster went on to receive his own miniseries which has been building him as a character to the Marvel world.
Check out some great screens and videos of the two new characters after the jump.
