Street Fighter 4 Ships Over 2 Million Copies

February 23, 2009 9:55 AM

Capcom has shipped over two million copies of Street Fighter IV to retailers worldwide, the company announced today. The PS3 and Xbox 360 brawler hit North America and Europe last week, with the Japanese release having arrived two weeks back.

While a regional breakdown of sales and shipments were not provided, Capcom noted that "first week sales in North America have been unbelievable -- just wait until you see the figures [released by] NPD next month!" After the console versions debuted in Japan, Capcom quickly claimed that the anticipated fighter had sold out at retailers.

A PC version of Street Fighter IV is due out eventually, but does not have a solid date yet.

  It has been a long time since I had this much fun with a fighting game. I concur vehemently.

    I actually loved SC4 and this is also an amazing game, the only one that I enjoyed but was mildly disappointed in was Mortal Kombat vs. DC

  Agreed. It's been a long while since I've had my hype for a game satisfied. This game is... delicious!
