Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
While some of the games included in this compendium are rendered somewhat superfluous by the fact that far superior sequels and updates exist alongside them, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection remains an utterly essential purchase for any self-respecting fighting game fan. Because of Street Fighter's importance to the genre, this is like a history lesson in how the one-on-one fighter has evolved over time; from its rather bumbled inception with the original Street Fighter to its break-out moment with the sequel and its slow and steady refinement with the Super, Alpha and Street Fighter...
The fact that Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection gives players a thorough insight into Street Fighter II, III and the Alpha series is recommendation enough, but when they’re so well presented it makes this more or less essential for fight game fans. Add in the Switch’s portability, and on-the-go multiplayer opportunities (if you’re both willing to forgive the limitations of the Joy-Con) and this is everything a Street Fighter fan could hope for.
Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection changes how we view game collections by making the match making experience streamlined instead of having us go to each game individually. The museum has an incredible amount of care put into it with even the concept art of the first game available to look through. Digital Eclipse has outdone themselves with an incredibly humbling anniversary collection.
This is a good collection that runs the gauntlet of arcade fighting games of the '80s and '90s. Whether or not you are a fan, this is a good entry point in the series, and there is something here for everyone.
"The only way a true fighter can suffer is by not fighting!"
The Street Fighter 30th Anniversay Collection is a faithful representation of the classic arcade titles. It is essentially a digital museum and love letter to the best fighting game of all time.
A worthy celebration of one of the most important franchises in gaming, although by leaving out Street Fighter’s console heritage there are a few gaps in the content.
While it's disappointing that there aren't more extras, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is still an excellent museum piece for fighting game historians and would-be quarter jockeys alike.
Twelve arcade ports in one package sounds pretty rad and all, but is Capcom's new retro collection worth it? Here's our review!
For those looking for a good online experience, however, this collection will feel like a disappointment, especially compared to previous compilations released on last-gen consoles. Even if the 30th Anniversary Collection's netplay gets patched up, it doesn't fix that the online presentation feels somewhat bare bones, though the option to play Arcade Mode with online players able to "quarter up" at any time does feel like a cool addition.
This digital museum for all things Street Fighter is now open.
The fighting game genre has become a staple of gaming. Now with a market of titans and indie titles finding dedicated fanbases, it can be easy to forget some of the pillars that the industry is built on. I can guarantee you that Street Fighter is not one of those easily forgotten titles. It’s one of the most recognisable beat ’em ups out there. Rivalled only by Mortal Kombat, no fighting game has had the staying power of Street Fighter. Starting 30 years ago, Street Fighter remains releva...
