Stunning visuals depict the next generation of World Warriors in unprecedented detail, while exciting and accessible battle mechanics deliver endless fighting fun that both beginners and veterans can enjoy.
Release date: Tomorrow! (16.02.2016)
Biggest changes from previous version:
- New characters
- No chip deaths
- Backdash invincibility
- Variable gauge
- Shared online with PS4
- Easier links
No chip deaths prevents those frustrating moments when the enemy could just chip you to death. There is no more backdash invincibility either. Variable gauge provides extra depth because it changes characters attacks. Shared online with PS4 will help keep the game's online mode populated.
The biggest change, especially for new players, is easier links though. They basically removed all the one-frame links that you had to pull off if you wanted to combo successfuly. Combos are now easier to perform, basically. Previously you had to spend hours upon hours in training mode to drill into your head / muscle memorize because the timing you had to have to perform a 1-frame link was pretty absurd. In SFV it's easier to do that though, do to 1-frame links being 3-frame links. This makes Street Fighter V for new players much less frustrating to pick up and shifts the focus of combat from perfect combo execution to other parts of the combat, like spacing, zoning, reacting to opponent.
