The costumes fit each character’s background and personality well, especially in the case of Bison.

The original Street Fighter released on August 30, 1987 in arcades and has since become Capcom’s third best-selling video game franchise (behind Resident Evil and Monster Hunter) at 39 million copies sold worldwide. The second iteration in the series is considered by many in the fighting game community as a benchmark from which other titles in the genre are compared, as Street Fighter II established many of the modern conventions of one-on-one style game combat.

As for the latest main entry game in the series, Street Fighter V released on PlayStation 4 and PC last year and features cross-platform play between the two platforms. The title launched as a console exclusive because, according to Capcom, both the developer and Sony had “the same vision for growth potential in the fighting game space.”
