Street Fighter X Tekken - new characters, PC release date confirmed

Fresh screens, gameplay and cinematics released

With just under a month until its release, Capcom has started tying up Street Fighter X Tekken's loose ends by finalising its character roster and putting an official date on the PC version.

The latest Capcom characters to join the fray are megalomaniac with a penchant for the colour purple, M. Bison, and broody badass/demon sociopath Akuma.

Hailing from the land of Tekken are Jin Kazama, deviant progeny of Kazuya, and Ogre, the dapper head-dress wearing Aztec God introduced in Tekken 3.

Capcom has released a bunch of screenshots showing off all the new characters along with a couple of character trailers and a story trailer that explains what brought the Tekken and Street Fighter worlds together.

Lastly, Capcom confirmed the PC version of the game will be out in the US on May 11, presumably showing up on May 14 in Europe. It didn't provide any additional details on the PS Vita version, saying only that it will reveal more "in the near future". The console versions hit UK stores on March 9.

Check out the screens and videos below.

We got hands-on with the game's Gem system earlier this month. Check out what we thought in our Street Fighter X Tekken preview.

    Buying this game on day 1. - I'm praying its not disappointing...

    Was really excited and buzzed when it was shown and everything, however with the more and more news that's being shown of the game, I'm starting to think its gonna be a very slight disappointment.

    I hoping this is more like sf4 and less like capcom vs marvel...

    anyone else notice in the ogre/jin trailer, that bison's health bar said 'Vega' underneath it? (Juri was his partner, so it aint tht)

    thats his name in Japan. Vega is called Balrog and Balrog is M.Bison (as in Mike Tyson) Capcom changed it up for the west back for streetfighter 2 to avoid being sued.

    can't freaking wait for this. who would pair with Akuma? I guess Ryu would be the only one, but it would be good to see him alongside a non Shoto.

    think ill hold on this until Street Fighter X Tekken ultimate super 2, hope this has some kind of single player mode and endings for all characters.
