Capcom and Namco have unveiled Street Fighter x Tekken, including spectacular gameplay scenes visible below, and have also announced Tekken x Street Fighter.
The announcement, already rumoured for some days, was made at Comic-Con as anticipated:
Fans seem to be delighted, although Tekken fans may be disappointed to see that both gameplay and character design are 100% Street Fighter 4 – fortunately they need not worry, as Namco is developing Tekken x Street Fighter as well, using the 3D fighting engine and graphical style of Tekken. Details of this have yet to be released.

Shizzle gizzle goozen gaar! I like the idea of two different designs for the cross over, although I'll be sticking to the SF version.
The guy who yelled out "GET HEIACHI" instantly became my hero~
well, since I'm some old nostalgic fag, the idea would have excited me if it was 2D, with Street Fighter II/Zero and Tekken 2 classic musics and stages
Yep,
There will be 2 games release one on Capcom engine and one on the Namco Engine.
I have been waiting for something this epic ever since Tekken 3. By the gods, I can't believe this is finally happening.
shit these two games are going to make me very very very poor
Kazuya looks disgusting.
As if he took steroids with an enhancement overdose.
Really can't wait for the Tekken version however.
As some of the previous comments have stated, if you think he looks bad, just wait till the of reveal more of the girls....It might fit some of the characters though. I wonder if ALL of the Tekken characters will be in or just a popular selection. The latter is more likely, of course.
Nina looks fine from what i've seen. Now Lili? By god kill me if they.....Ugh I don't want to think about it.
motal combat vs dc is better
....lol,finally a chance to make ryu/ken users cry?
FIGHT!
ryu:hadoken! (spam)
jin:*sidesteps*
ryu WHAT?! ;_;
jin:welcome....to the real world.
ryu:*spinkicked to death*
jin wins
I.NEED.THIS!
hey guise, wut is seme x uke?
I'd much rather have Capcom vs SNK 3, but that's probably not going to happen any time soon (if at all).
Agreed, but Capcom has gone the butt ugly 2.5D route so no more Third Strike sprite animations from them.
So they are giving up one fighting version for another.
Maybe Tekken combos are only ↓← + o .
Or maybe they go to Guilty Gear type of combo.
Why are they just now getting to this?
.......I think I pis.. nope I creamed my pants
Great tekken could use some improvements on camera mechanics ala SF4.
Best thing of this was the Mega Man vs Pacman showdown at the end.
Please, Namco doesn't need Capcom's help considering Tekken is vastly way more popular in japan than SF unlike the states. If anything Capcom ASKED Namco for help.
They did this kind of cross over before, just for fighting game. For PS2, Capcom X Namco was release, did not play it so not sure what it was about, but it seems to resemble some type of action RPG.
Both companies are running out of ideas as Tekken is running on its sixth game and Street Fighter has run longer but the story kept changing.
So far it looks impressive
kuma wins lol lol lol
call me back when you have DOA vs. Soul Calibur
Meh, it's not Capcom x Namco. So I wouldn't see Sophitia I guess...
I hope she's become a bonus character lol
PacMan X Megaman. Now THAT I want to play
Tekken has its infinite combos and Street fighter its special moves. I wonder how they will equilibrate it
Tekken X Street Fighter X BlazBlue X God of War violence
what it should be
can't wait to have this game I wonder who will win akuma vs jin
The crowd enthusiasm makes me want to laugh and cheer at the same time.
waited soooooooooo long for this!!
So it's not Namco X Capcom (not the PS2 SRPG one) and Capcom X Namco after all?
Also, squeeze more. Milking, milking and more milking, baby.
So true. Namco is REALLY desperate right now, I guess.
Just making sure, that is Kazuya right? Seems a little behind on Tekken plot in that case... Deveil Jin is more concurrent.
I've never liked Tekken at all. So this isn't exactly exciting news to me. Interesting? Yes. But Exciting? No.
OMG I AM SO GOING 2 GET THAT PACMAN X MEGAMAN GAME!!!!
Amazing, i got to say all we need next is Dead or Alive vs Tekken, damn now am really in need of a console with this and marvel vs capcom 3 coming.
ANYONE WELLING TO HELP A POOR OTAKU ?!! PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN WHEN YOU DONATE TO ME D:
Christie vs Hitomi
Oh yes, fund it!
Christie vs Christie....wait!
Dead or Alive x Tekken = Sexy time
There needs to be a Street Fighter vs Gran Tourismo.
It's called the bonus stage!
E. Honda, Chun Li or Blanka will win easily
Took long enough.
Where is the fight music when we need it!
Is this even possible? Yes it seems so, and it seems pretty good... I hope that Capcom copies Namco and includes the all the costumes in the game...
I can't wait to see Namco's version.
Street Fighter characters with a 4 button control scheme!? Sounds stupid. The graphics engine differences I can get (though it's a question mark from a sales perspective), but control scheme differences on two completely different games is asking for problems.
Regardless it's good for Tekken fans, becuase the Street Fighter 4 engine look to be lacking when it comes to rendering nice looking female characters(Cammy being the major exception). I disappointed they didn't re-do Chun-Li's design considering she looks real good in Capcom VS Marvel 3.
I also wondering how the different control schemes of the two franchises are are going to be managed.
I'm assuming that Tekken characters(lacking fireballs)can dash under them.
also, sagat is 8ft tall
sf4 can be quite versatile with different characters but tekken is so limited to its own gameplay
There's a lot of reasons to be disappointed with the styles for these games.
It's an obvious attempt to shameless cash-in from both, and a desperate move on Namco's part, considering their current fortunes.
No change in the graphical style (unlike MvC3), gameplay looks to be extremely similar as well, no real innovation here.
It's just like adding characters to SFIV. Kinda disappointing.
That would be stupid if it were the case. But apparently you can't read.
FUCK YES!
So it's finally happening
Do we see Kuma throwing fireballs now?
Kuma is the bear from tekken; Akuma is the demon lord of the street fighter universe
Two franchises that are both pretty much on a love/hate relationship with the genre if not gamers as a whole... and by two well known Companies (perhaps even of which fall under "favorites", for some). At least they're doing it in an appealing way. Fans of one but not the other can turn towards the style of the franchise they prefer, so hopefully both versions will be multi-platform, as well (didn't see any direct mention of platform-release-anticipations and/or confirmations).
O_O OMG!!!!!!! must have.
I'm expecting them to make a Super Street Fighter x Tekken and Super Tekken x Street Fighter as well. xDD
Is this what they call "Mirrored Happiness"?
This opens up a lot of Hentai yuri-futa doujin possibilities--er, I mean female dream-team possibilities for me...
OOOoh ooooh! YurixFuta how delicious!!
And from these 2 worlds even better!!
So want my Xiaou with Chun.... like best couple!! <3
I for one anxiously await a Sakura x Ling Xiaoyu "teamup" (if you know what I mean)
I look forward to a Nina x Crimson V. "teamup"
Kuma wins! thats what i always have stuck in my head from this game :3 ...
and i waited so long for this to happen.
Oh god, the tekken characters look so insanely bad with that street fighter engine..
Aren't the tekken's superior in the graphics engines for that matter? Why the hell would they use the street fighter one..
I guess for the side scrolling no 3-d aspect eh... But how the hell would they change characters like Yoshimitsu and and King..
Don't know..
The environmental detail is astounding... Fighting in the background is pwnage.
Now this is what I've been waiting for a match between jin and ryu!
This is way much better than that hog wash DC vs MK. and do I detect a tag system there?
Fantastic isn't it? Two fighting universes, clashing against each other.
"Tekken fans may be disappointed to see that both gameplay and character design are 100% Street Fighter 4"
yeah i would have to agree on this.
as a long term Tekken fan, i was never sold on SFIV graphic style and gameplay.
i picked up SSFIV and found it meh... i love 3rd strike though.
Interesting - have two games that are (for the most part) exactly the same but play completely different at the same time. I guess ppl wondering how Tekken Characters handle in 2D would get the Capcom version or rent it at least and ppl wondering how the Street Fighter Characters handle in 3D would get the Namco version and some will get both. Ingenious really. Also i liked the little Megaman X Pacman at the end of the first video =D
that anon @ 16:28 was me forgot i wasnt signed in >_<
Mutually beneficial competition is fine. I want both of them. This is kind of a chance for me to get into Street Fighter for once.
Why does this seem like its a developer E-peen war
MY ENGINE IS BETTER THEN YOURS!
BTW, you may never have heard of it but Street Fighter EX series was in 3D.
Why couldn't it have Tekken 6 level 3D graphics!? Shouldn't each next game be better?
It will have Tekken 6 level 3D graphics, on the Namco Version!
There will be 2 games, in 2 different engines. This is the Street Fighter IV engine version.
@Darkrockslizer Tekken x Street Fighter is going to have Tekken 6 graphics. It's in the article.
Video link is broken. DAMN!!
I once herd a rumor of a Virtua Fighter Vs Tekken crossover.
BUT SCREW THAT WE HAVE THIS INSTEAD! THIS IS OVER 9000 TIMES BETTER THAN THAT...ewww... now that I think about it... I don't want to... it's just too ugly.
Tekken and VF wouldn't mix.
Thank god they went with Tekken and Street Fighter. Both are arcade button mashers, unlike technical Virtua Fighter. I would hate to see them simplify VF's engine more than they did in VF4Evo just so it's similar to Tekken's.
Not to mention, even though Tekken has lots more characters than VF, all of them have short movelists, just like in Street Fighter.
If they took out 70% of moves of every VF character just so the amount of moves per character is the same for every one, that would suck hard.
Yes, I do prefer the much more complex and demanding VF to one-dimensional, shallow Tekken.
Feel free to thumb me down.
lol another fanboi talking out of his ass who probably hasn't played more than 1 Tekken to compare, I've played all of them & while what you said might have been somewhat true 3 games ago Tekken has long overtaken VF in complexity, and always did in fun factor.
Feel free to thumb me down too.
Really? So every character in Tekken is balanced now?
Both VF and Tekken have their good points which I can no longer say for SF since they went the ugly route in both gameplay and looks IMO...
Wow, pretentious much?
I agree Tekken isn't the deepest game, but it can be and is played at a competetive level.
More so for SSFIV.
Zangeif Vs Kuma
:V
Who has more hair on their body? We shall find out!
great idea but is it really necessary to be having two games with the same premise except one with 3d and other 2d?
this is just like when capcom vs snk then SNK made snk vs capcom...
neither games had good longevity.
Well, the premise of one is Tekken characters in a Street Fighter game, and the premise of the other is Street Fighter characters in a Tekken game. Since both series' games play quite differently, I'd say there's more than just the 2D/3D difference.
Projectiles in Tekken, for instance.
Oh Yes Tekken V.S. Street Fighter !!
A Dream Comes true :3
I seriously hope they won't turn Alisa and Lili into steroid abused manly women..
When you think about it though, the Street Fighter will likely not be so manly looking on Tekken x Street Fighter....Poor Lili, though...and Xiaoyu....and Asuka since they're going to take her biceps to extreme levels, probably.
Im happy, but confused. Tekken doesn't have magic(like hadouken), so won't the tekken characters be owned by magic firing character? after all pretty much 50% of the players that play online use ryu, or any clone of the ryu/ken fighting style.
not to mention both games are so different, on almost every aspect.
50% last I played SFIV it was 99% Sagat, Ryu,Ken (that was last year when I rented the game...).
Well, at least Devil Jin have his "Imma firin mah lazor" Eyes. XD
Doryeah vs Hadoken?
of course electric wing god fist owns any move in the game no questions ask.
So when will Capcom officially be out of crossover ideas? SF vs MK? Capcom vs Konami? Freddy vs Jason vs Alien vs Predator?
Maybe they'll just make a video game adaption of the movie Versus.
Namco vs Konami...........Would be the best selling fighting game of the century xD.
Have you ever heard about feeware MUGEN... I think capcom will end making a game like this with pay-downloable characters and all that stuff...
Basically, they can't come up with new fighting games or improve them enough to expand their demographic so they're following the strategy of releasing as many crossovers or franchise fanservice as possible to net a few more sales from their niche fans, rehashing the same engines with different characters.
Cool.
Its a very viable course but it will eventually get old.
They weren't joking when they said japanese developers had gotten stagnant and fighting games being an almost purely japanese genre is the one suffering the most.
lol and i guess western is being innovated this gen? give me a good game that isn't shooter? almost 70% of games being release by western developers are shooters. only few games like assassins's creed, little big planet and such.
at least the japanese are producing various genre "other" than fighting games, like you know rpgs, driving games, visual novels games, niche games,rhythm game the good ones(beatmania,ddr) not that shitty guitar hero's and shit. everyone is running out of ideas not just japanese.
on topic i think the game looks good yes they are rehashing the same engine at least they're doing it for their fans. would have loved to a new game from capcom or a revival instead. like onimusha 5 or new strider, chaos legion heck they even own the killer 7 IP(damn you capcom give it back to suda 51)
Its not about doing many random genres, its about improving the product by perfecting things or innovating.
Some western devs focus on shooters, others on rpg's and yet they still innovate. Racing games have diversified into many different sub styles like street, arcade, realistic.
Even the genres japanese devs had usually excelled are now being outperformed by western devs. The fighting game niche is just one of the worst cases along with RPG's because of how noticeable it is that only the same couple of old franchises are still left and they haven't improved at all instead its all about rehashing to keep the same players in.
That is a dead course that will lead to a crash.
hmmm i don't know. can you explain to me how they perfected the shooter and rpg genre? how do you even know they outperform the japanese in those categories? perfection can be differ from other people's perspective. to me it's not about perfecting but how fun and unique any genre can be.
for instance killer 7 is a perfect example of a great extraordinary shooter that you don't see nowadays, since almost every shooter we see is always aiming for realism. a dark story albeit confusing at first but you get to know more as you move on, gameplay is unique, you don't aimed at the head but at the weakspots of the enemy can either be at the back, leg,arms and so on. and that's the reason you keep playing it, are there any games like okami or shadow of the colossuss? Peace Walker also has one of the best gameplays ever. recruiting someone using a futon balloon? just pure genius.
im more to the unique aspect of a game, couldn't careless if they perfect any genre.
