Super Street Fighter IV was revealed on the game’s official Japanese website today, but it looks like Capcom US has an announcement to make as well, providing much more detail.
This new, “ultimate vision” of Super Street Fighter IV will features the complete roster of 25 characters while also adding about eight new characters to the game including the likes of T. Hawk and Juri.
Ultra combos are also a new addition to the game, as well as new advancements to the game’s online matchmaking and gameplay from Street Fighter IV.
Super Street Fighter IV is due to release in 2010. No word on whether it’s a completely new release or an add-on disc for the already-released game. Check out the first screens at the gallery.

This sounds awesome! If Dudley comes back as a new character I’ll officially go insane. He was strong, fast, better at combos, good priority, the whole shebang. Honestly though, I’ll have to get this on PS3. There’s just no difference in the online experience to warrant the price of LIVE, when on the PS3 it’s FREE. Can’t wait for 2010!
With everyone in the SF cast getting all buff I can’t understand why they wouldn’t include Dee Jay? He’s shirtless and besides Zangief, Bison and Sagat he was probably the most muscle bound of them all. They brought T-Hawk back who’s equally pumped up so why not Dee Jay? Same thing with Alex. Another muscle head that would work well with the rest of the steroid injected cast.
If they’re going to back into the SFIII valut I’d like to seethe twins, Yang and Yun get in there even if they’re DLC. I’d also like to see Makoto, Ibuki, Sean and Elena (whooo baby) get updated.
Just leave out the really freaky characters like TWELVE, Oro and Necro. I’d prefer only humans in my Street Fighter. Seth is enough of a freak that we don’t need any more mutated, alien fighters in the game.
They said there’s going to be about eight additional characters, and so far only two have been revealed.
Dee Jay is probably likely for the new edition.
Nevermind, just found footage that confirms that Dee Jay is part of the new lineup. Ask you shall receive!

Now if they can manage to get the twins in there or maybe Elena that would be cool but chances of them adding yet another female are probably slim since they just added an all new character that’s a chick (her super combo by the way is awesome).
