I wouldn't hold your breath on a steam release. there has been no communication regarding gbvs steam since the stuff a year ago of them saying it would be nice to put the game on steam.

Does anyone know what time the HK version releases? I'm having trouble finding info on that.

How good have PS4 fighter been about accepting PS3 sticks generally? Will I finally need to get a new one for GBFV or should I just wait for a Steam release?

PS3 sticks don't work with Arcsys' two most recent fighting games (BBTag & DBFZ), so it's unlikely they'll work with GBFV.

You could get a Brook Universal or PS4 board instead of a whole new stick if you're not looking to replace what you've got

An hour after the jp release, I think.

Or the Brook ps3->ps4 converter for a cheaper but slightly laggier alternative.

The fact that XSeed is handling the localization at least gives me a little hope. I know the localization team doesn't have a whole lot of sway on porting decisions but it gives me more hope than if the english version was all handled in house.

Word is the HK version has english dub as well as text. We'll find out for sure tomorrow. If so, I'll punt the month and grab HK.

Apparently it's more like weapon's master mode from Soul Calibur and you can use them in versus mode as well. I don't know if they confer any other benefits besides cosmetics under those terms but I do agree that it's not really something I'm upset about since it's largely there for the single player mode.

They're used for your weapon grid in single player but are otherwise cosmetic for standard play

I'm surprised that SC6 made it back and the inclusion of MVC2 was cool until it was revealed to be limited to 8 people, so who cares.

If you mean an official side-stage for select side-tournaments then yeah, they said they'll be doing that again.

There's a bunch of reasons they might not be officially running MK - it's too violent for sponsors, the DLC characters may have licensing issues, Asia uniformly doesn't give a gently caress, etc. Evo's more corporate than ever and poo poo that didn't seem to matter before matters now.

I have to think that a re-release is coming. As corporate as Evo is becoming, that's the only thing that makes sense about that pick.

I mean, I think SamSho was the best FG of 2019, and I'm shocked it beat out MK11 and/or BBTag.

That or they're trying to slowly soften people up to the idea of invite-only/exhibition events and they figure it'll be easier to do with an old game than a new one.

Doesn't Disney own every character now that isn't Capcom? Should be a lot easier, when I first saw it listed I assumed a newer port was inevitable because why else, but then I realized that
