Capcom’s legendary fighting game series returned in 2009 with a new look and some new rules. Ultra marks the third major update for the game, adding new characters and systems in addition to a host of balance tweaks. It was released in June 2014 as a DLC update, but August 5 marks the launch of the full retail version.

Ultra Street Fighter IV adds five new characters to the fighting roster: Rolenta, Hugo, Elena, Poison (all of whom appeared in Street Fighter X Tekken), and Decapre, a member of M. Bison’s brainwashed asssassin/bodyguards, the Dolls. The Ultra enhancements also include six new stages, an “Edition Select” feature that allows players to swap between different versions of SFIV characters as they appeared in previous updates to the 2009 game, and a new “Double Ultra” option to use during fight, triggering both of a character’s Ultra Combo attacks, for reduced damage on each.
