Happy 35th Anniversary, Street Fighter!

 

35 years ago this day in Japanese arcades, the original Street Fighter was released and introduced the world to the franchise that would be synonymous with Capcom and the world of fighting games. It wouldn’t be until the release of its 1991 sequel Street Fighter II where the series’ popularity would boom and many characters like Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Guile, Sagat, and M. Bison would become household names, but it got its start with that 1987 title and things would only grow bigger from there.

Following Street Fighter II’s success, more sequels, spin-offs, and other forms of media and merchandise would follow. Street Fighter would take the world by storm and would feature largely in the fighting game community, leading to the birth of events and tournaments where fans and fighters from around the world could gather and participate in. After a brief hiatus in the early 2000’s that saw the franchise all but gone, Street Fighter IV would be released and see a resurgence in interest for fighting games. Street Fighter V would eventually follow, and now that game is ready to give way to its successor in Street Fighter 6 - which is set for release some time next year.

Three and a half decades of FIGHT! Happy anniversary, Street Fighter!
