Capcom made another announcement for Street Fighter X Tekken last night. They announced Mega Man and Pac-Man as exclusive characters for the PS3 version of their title! This is awesome news…for PS3 gamers. Sony already announced that Cole from Infamous (previously only featured in the Vita version of STXT) and Toro and Kuro as exclusive characters, making the PS3 version the one to get. Having both systems, this works out for me. However, all of my 360 fans out there seem to be left out. Hopefully Microsoft will add some characters of their own before launch (similar to what was done with the Soul Calibur series).
Going back to the new characters, they look awesome in action. For the first time, Mega Man will be depicted as the original Mega Man 1 box art character. Though he is a little more “fluffy” than I remember, he looks like a capable fighter. Pac-Man will join the fight, riding on top of a Mokujin (think Tron Bonne).
I’m sure gamers can’t wait to get their hands on these new characters; March 6th can’t come soon enough. In the meantime, check out this trailer featuring all of the exclusive characters:
