Ultra Street Fighter IV Adds Edition Select to its Character Roster

Ultra Street Fighter IV Adds Edition Select to its Character Roster

Remember the old days of Street Fighter IV when Sagat and Akuma were broken beyond belief? Well now you can relive those days once more! The upcoming Ultra Street Fighter IV has added a brand new “Edition Select” option to their character select screen. It allows you to roll back the balance changes on characters when you select them. So if you want to play original SFIV Sagat, you can! If you want to play Arcade Edition Yun, then you can! If you want to play Super Street Fighter IV Ryu, you can!

There is a catch though. Characters will only have access to the mechanics that their original edition included. So, characters who are rolled back all the way to Street Fighter IV will only have one Ultra to choose from. Characters not using the Ultra Street Fighter IV balance changes will not be able to red focus, delay wake up, or use both of their ultras at once. But this might not matter for players who are just looking to take advantage of blatant game unbalance.

The last time we saw anything like this was in Super Street Fighter II Turbo , when players looking to break the game played Old Sagat. Looks like old habbits die hard.
