Street Fighter IV: Netflix Revives Classic for Mobile Gaming

The debate over the golden age of fighting games continues to rage on. Was it the era of Street Fighter III in the 90s, the emergence of Guilty Gear in the 2000s, or the current dominance of titles like Tekken in the 2020s? Regardless of when you believe it peaked, there's no denying that Street Fighter IV played a pivotal role in revitalizing the genre.

Now, thanks to Netflix Games, you can dive back into the action with Street Fighter IV: Championship Edition. This version brings you over 30 iconic fighters and 12 memorable stages to battle in. Whether you're a fan of the classic duo Ryu and Ken, enjoy the return of Third Strike favorites like Elena and Dudley, or are eager to play with newcomers such as C. Viper and Juri Han, there's a character for every player.

The best part? Accessing Street Fighter IV: Championship Edition is as simple as having a standard Netflix subscription. You can engage in thrilling online multiplayer matches or hone your skills in offline solo play. While controllers are supported for gameplay, keep in mind that you'll need to navigate the menu with touch controls (and there's no word yet on fight-stick compatibility).

Street Fighter IV is packed with content that caters to both newcomers and seasoned fighters. Each character has an arcade mode, and you can adjust the difficulty to gradually build your skills. However, be warned: if you're a beginner, the fighting game community has had years to perfect their techniques.

For those new to fighting games, Street Fighter IV offers adjustable difficulty settings and a comprehensive set of tutorials to help you master the art of combat.
