If you’ve been salivating at each new piece of information on Street Fighter V that’s been revealed, a trip to Florida might be in order, as Capcom will be showing a playable version of the game there next month.

Community Effort Orlando 2015 is a stop on the Capcom Pro Tour, and it was announced via the Combo Breaker Street Fighter IV livestream over the weekend that the latest entry in the Street Fighter franchise will be playable there, IGN reports. The event takes place from June 26 to 28 in — you guessed it — Orlando.

This is the first time that a playable demo of the game will be available to the public. Details on what this playable version will consist of are scant, but we’ve seen plenty of in-game footage from Street Fighter V, and based on what we’ve seen, it looks like the game is coming along nicely.

While it hasn’t yet been announced which version of the game Capcom will be showing at CEO 2015, it seems fairly likely that the PlayStation 4 version will be the main focus leading up to the launch. Still, it’s possible that Capcom will be showing the work-in-progress title on the PC. Sorry Xbox One fans: it was confirmed last year that the PS4 is the only console getting Street Fighter V.

Capcom seems to be ramping up the publicity behind Street Fighter V. Last week we got a good look at series mainstay M. Bison in action. He may be a little older and a little more gray, but his skills — including his signature Psycho Crusher — are still intact.

An exact date for the release of Street Fighter V has yet to be announced, but it’s expected to arrive some time in spring 2016.

In the meantime, have a look at M. Bison showing off his skills below.

AMD has launched the Radeon RX 9050, an entry-level RDNA 4 graphics card built for 1080p gaming. The retail version comes with 8GB of GDDR6 memory and reportedly starts at $279, although its release is limited to Asia-Pacific, Japan, and Latin America.

The card has 16 compute units, 1,024 stream processors, and a 92W board power. AMD claims 96 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 and 131 fps in Forza Horizon 6 at 1080p medium. However, the launch also includes a less appealing 4GB version for prebuilt gaming PCs.

Your GTA 6 ‘physical copy’ could expire before you even play it
Rockstar has confirmed that Japanese PS5 download codes won't remain valid forever.

The debate around GTA 6's "physical" edition just got another twist. Rockstar has confirmed on its official website that PS5 download codes included with physical copies of Grand Theft Auto VI sold in Japan will expire 170 days after the game's November 19, 2026 launch date. That means players who don't redeem the code before roughly May 8, 2027 could be left with nothing more than an empty game box, even though they purchased a physical copy. The company says the policy is required due to regional regulations in Japan.

Why only Japan?
