Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Major Update: New Characters and Features Revealed

2025-08-03 22:17:39

During the Evo 2025 event, Capcom surprised fighting game enthusiasts with exciting news about their latest compilation title. The developers unveiled a significant update coming to Capcom Fighting Collection 2, packed with new content and improvements that promise to enhance the player experience.

The Capcom Fighting Collection 2 has already established itself as a must-have for fighting game fans, featuring classic titles like Capcom vs SNK and its sequel. While not every included game has been universally praised (such as Capcom Fighting Evolution), the overall package offers tremendous value for fans of the genre.

Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Major Update

The upcoming title update, scheduled for release on August 7, brings four new playable characters to Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper. Maki, Eagle, Yun, and Ingrid will join the roster, accessible through the Additional Characters EX Setting. This move mirrors Capcom's approach with previous collections, where post-launch updates expanded the content.

Beyond character additions, the update includes:

  • New artwork for the game's gallery
  • Remixed versions of classic tracks
  • Additional game modes for Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper
  • Combo Route display feature for Plasma Sword in Training Mode

The inclusion of Ingrid holds special significance for longtime Capcom fans. Originally introduced in Capcom Fighting Evolution, this character has appeared sporadically throughout the years. Her upcoming debut in Street Fighter 6 as part of the Year 3 DLC makes this update particularly timely, allowing players to familiarize themselves with her fighting style before her modern iteration arrives.
