[Update:Here’s the announcement video that was screened during the panel.]
Two years ago, there was a pretty bad-assStreet Fighterfan film calledStreet Fighter: Legacythat you might have seen. After it blew up the Internet, creator Joey Ansahexpressed an interestin producing a full-lengthStreet Fightermovie or show. Looks like he got that chance, and with the complete support of Capcom to boot!
At Comic-Con,Street FighterproducerYoshinori Ono announcedStreet Fighter: Assassin’s Fist, a multi-part series being helmed by theLegacycrew. According to director Ansah (Akuma inLegacy, Desh inThe Bourne Ultimatum) and co-writer Christian Howard (Ken inLegacy),Assassin’s Fistwill explore the histories of Ryu, Ken, Gouken, and Akuma as well as the dark secrets of their fighting style, “Ansatsuken.”
Street Fighter: Assassin’s Fistwill premier in 2013. If it’s even half as amazing and faithful to the games asLegacywas, I doubt you’ll be hearing many complaints.
