Capcom today sent word that its newest Street Fighter game will be making its way to consoles and Windows PC. Xbox 360 and PS3 versions were announced, but no mention was made of a Wii SKU. The publisher did not pin down a release timeframe either, but the game is expected sometime during the current fiscal year.

Street Fighter IV will feature the usual cast of characters (Ken, Ryu, Chun-Li, Guile, etc.) in addition to new fighters – Crimson Viper, Abel, El Fuerte, and Rufus – designed for this latest iteration. Instead of opting for a full 3D brawler, Capcom decided to keep the game in the familiar 2D perspective but included "3D flourishes" and changed the art to a more stylized look.

Capcom has directed fans hungry for the latest on Street Fighter to the new website, which currently has a countdown timer for 2 days and 18 hours, so you can likely expect a bit more information then.
