Street Fighter X Tekken: 4 characters fighting at the same time

Posted by Catalyst — July 21, 2011 at 3:38 p.m. PDT

IGN got their hands on some really cool footage of Street Fighter X Tekken. It starts off normal enough, but around the 22 second mark, you can see all four fighters beating each other up at the same time.

Pointed out by Zabby.

WAIT WUT.

Also, Poison is hot. Don't give a damn what gender it is.

What is this? Smash Brothers?

kirbykirbykirby said on July 21, 2011 at 3:42 p.m.

reminds me of mvc with all four characters at the same time doing hyper combos like crazy but they are all doing different things. looks good though

BeUnbound said on July 21, 2011 at 3:43 p.m.

Looks a bit wonky. But if it can be improved and implemented well then I am all for it.

the greyed out character is CPU controlled and the Bright(normal colored) character is the Player controlled it switche

#21

gluemchen said on July 21, 2011 at 3:46 p.m.

looks like 4 player match where when this ability is used all characters go at each other at the same time. The one that are not active on the stage get matched up together is my guess. the theam that loses the character firt loses probably. O maybe this comes into play as soon as the time out comes. Like sudden death.

Well it's very clear, Poison is female. Does this mean four players?

weird i just noticed only one healthbar

#26

KynStar said on July 21, 2011 at 3:50 p.m.

The mechanic of it seems to be that it splits both team mates health evenly and the team mate joins in only when the point character's health is flashing.

EasyLoops said on July 21, 2011 at 3:52 p.m.

What the...
their life bars became one bar, but from the looks of it doing this seems very risky, after the parther leaves, both of the characters health is the same amount (at 0:34)

#34

chickenwings said on July 21, 2011 at 3:56 p.m.

the return of crossover combination. Aswome. now PLEASE have a 4 player mode for this game.

#35

4 Player mode is now likely confirmed. I'm guessing Capcom wants something similar to MK9's tag system?

Poison is officially a post-op transsexual. But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away to look female."

Yeah, the "tranny" jokes are so old now.

If people can't understand that she's a woman, always has been, always WILL be, then they're a lost cause prone to trolling.

NA localization of Final Fight "changed" her gender due to domestic violence against women, yada, yada, yada.

POISON IS A WOMAN.

GET OVER IT.

#50

roknin said on July 21, 2011 at 4:23 p.m.

This is awesome if it's truly 4-player.

This is kinda' worrisome if it's CPUs jumping in the fray. Not something that'll keep me from purchasing multiple copies of the game, but I'll likely avoid using it if that's the case.

#51

JasonLee said on July 21, 2011 at 4:37 p.m.

Funny hearing people claim she isn't a shemale just so they don't appear to be homosexuals when they gush over how hot she is.

#52

NINJA said on July 21, 2011 at 4:39 p.m.

If we see closer the characters have an higlight swaping on them. Maybe we have to control the two at the same time alternating at each time. Which seems bad...

#53

roknin said on July 21, 2011 at 4:42 p.m.

@ NINJA - that's kinda' what I'm thinking. And I agree, that seems bad...

#56

Novacane said on July 21, 2011 at 4:47 p.m.

Its almost like Dramatic battle from SFEX3 and Alpha 3.

So we may be able to play 4 players on 1 system at the same time.

#57

Arma said on July 21, 2011 at 4:48 p.m.

Anyone remember Isuka? Yeah, that one went down really well... :(

#58

moodkip said on July 21, 2011 at 4:49 p.m.

Now I may be incorrect, but this looks like it may in fact be the "comeback" feature for SFxT...
If you notice, they both activate while they're health is flashing low.
Once again I may be completely wrong...

#59

JasonLee said on July 21, 2011 at 4:49 p.m.

It's clearly not 4 players in that video.

It's player one and player two. When activated the bars merge and one character is highlighted... It wouldn't be a stretch to assume you can pick which character to play on the fly at which point they become highlighted and the other team memeber is darked out .

Honestly this looks really bad and unless they drastically change it I think it should be removed completely.

#60

NINJA said on July 21, 2011 at 4:53 p.m.

Ken and his washed out costume. I hate that they did this since SF4 was created... Ken costume always had strong colors... Red was RED. Not some washed out pink mixed with brown and even some cream.

#61

BisonBetterBeGoodInSSF4 said on July 21, 2011 at 4:55 p.m.

the whole Poison thing. picture it this way. Balrog and Vega and Bison had a name switch (along with Akuma). does that mean they are different characters? nope. Bison is still boxer, even if your playing on the moon, hes still his original character. Poison is a chick...made into a guy because some people couldnt bear the horrible sight of seeing a female character being hit, in a virtual world (idiots). anyways thought id clear that up.

and now id like to make a 13/hour speech, on how morals can really affect our lives...

just trolling. game looks sweet. something different from the usual, which is good. cant wait to try it.

#6 True dat sir.

DUDE THIS LOOKS BADASSS. ANyone remember the old SF games?? I think its alpha..x3? (Not the 3d one) YOU COULD PLAY WITH YOUR FRIEND AT THE SAME TIME ON THE SCREEN. It was the most fun thing.

I think this is what that is. I prefer tag teams though, this is to chaotic.

WHAT IS THIS NEW THING, IM SCARED AND IM ALONE BUT YET SO CURIOUS

#65

SomeDude said on July 21, 2011 at 5:12 p.m.

@65
Yeah Dramatic battle,it was in the console versions of SFA3.

The game looks friggin awesome,and hooray for capcom for using lesser known characters..

#66

2dfightermf said on July 21, 2011 at 5:15 p.m.

poision was created as a female character. i dont know why capcom doesnt just correct this idiocy now that the "stigma" is gone as opposed to having their own stupid producer supporting it.

i wish GLADD would sue capcom just to show them how stupid they were to change poision's gender in the first place. like explaining to your kids why its okay to beat up a transgendered man in a video game is somehow easier than explaining why its bad to beat a woman. idiots.

POISION. IS. A. WOMAN.

#67

JasonLee said on July 21, 2011 at 5:21 p.m.

The character evolved. She may not have been intended as a shemale but she is now.

Gouki is Akuma why don't those stupid developers just go back and change it!!!!!!111

Oh wait it's because no one cares and it's just how it is.

@All who are debating

In North America, Poison is officially a post-op transsexual." Well, that clears that up.

"But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away in order to look like a girl," Ono adds. Oh. Well, I suppose there's always Roxy.

They made poison a man so it didn't look like you were beating a woman... but originally she was a woman to begin with

Please don't show us your hand dressed as Poison.

#74

Getdownbrown83 said on July 21, 2011 at 5:39 p.m.

I actually read Ono awhile back say poison in the states was a post op tranny and in japan she basically was a Tucker so someone on here said that and they are correct I seen it to but regardless this game is sick I don't even know who to use right now I'm pumped about this game and Umvc3 blame that damn tsunami for it not being DLC I got the collectors edition too so I spent big bucks but capcom has done this for years and I been playing since SF and I ain't bought to give up on em yet SFxT is gonna be straight nasty

#75

roknin said on July 21, 2011 at 5:39 p.m.

@ 68 - LOL, pretty much.

@ 71 - LOL, indeed. Roxy actually is a woman.

I really don't care either way - I'll be using sexy Poison in this game, and I'm still hoping for Juri to make it in. * drools*

#76

Novacane said on July 21, 2011 at 5:40 p.m.

Does anyone know who that girl is at the end of the

Idk if its Zafina or someone from the alpha series.

#77

SsjBizzle said on July 21, 2011 at 5:44 p.m.

@66 yes thats the one I believe! It also had a fun world tour mode (well I thought it was fun as a kid, I know most of you will go..BUT ITS POITNESLLS UH UH LEVELING UP EH EHE HWY CAPCOM)

I wish they just ignored the whiners and gave the fun stuff back : ( Like BB having legion mode.

And yea I have mixed feelings on what to think about Poison, its a vid game char too so its weird in general lol, but Im like ho-..eh tranny?..no?..confused?..yes?

JustIceRei said on July 21, 2011 at 6:05 p.m.

It would be nice if you could hold the Tag button down to gain control of the second player, input motions, and let go of it to do motions for your primary character. As a "hey, we love you" to execution lovers.

codallenschmidt said on July 22, 2011 at 3:57 a.m.

from what i can tell after u call in the second person and both of your characters are out there. U do an attack with the first character, who at the time is brighter, then after that attack that character darkens and then u control the second character who becomes brighter. and then it goes back and forth between the two characters allowing some interesting ass combos where u do links between your two characters. wow
