Street Fighter X Tekken has a little something for Street Fighter and Tekken fans alike.

Afterwords, Producer Yoshinori Ono spoke how Street Fighter X Tekken came to be. In his words…

When we [Capcom] took that 10 year break between releasing Street Fighter games, I feel that Tekken diligently stoked the fighting game campfire and kept people interested. With Street Fighter IV we tossed kerosene on that fire and got fans really excited about fighting games again.
