Ono says Capcom underestimated popularity of Street Fighter's single player elements
At launch, it featured three-round character background stories, and a survival mode, which unlocks new character colours. But it was without a cinematic story mode, which is coming in June, a mode to simply fight AI opponents, or character trials.
Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono told Game Informer, “I think it's safe to say that we underestimated the popularity of some of the single-player features.”
