Ultra Street Fighter 4 launching June 2014

Ultra Street Fighter IV, an updated version of Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, will launch in "early" June 2014 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and in August for PC, Capcom announced today through its official blog.

The game will be available in early June as a $15 digital upgrade on Xbox 360 and PS3. The digital upgrade version for PC will follow in August for the same price.

Also in August, Capcom will release $40 retail bundles for Xbox 360 and PS3 that include all previously released costumes. On PC, the bundle with all the costumes will be available as a download in August for $30.

In the blog post, Capcom said it chose to release the game on stagger basis in 2014 so that Ultra Street Fighter IV could be featured in the Evolution 2014 tournament.

"Apologies to our PC fans, as we did want to release simultaneously, but this was the only way that we could ensure that Ultra Street Fighter IV would be included in the largest fighting game tournament in the world," the company said.

Capcom announced Ultra Street Fighter IV last summer during the Evolution Fighting Game Championships. It includes five new characters and six stages, among other features.
