I don't typically equate amusement parks with huge fighting games, but Capcom plans to change that fact. The company announced today that Street Fighter V will be heading to Six Flags this summer.
An early version of Street Fighter V will be playable at 10 different Six Flags locations beginning tomorrow. The press release states that "each park will feature custom Street Fighter V-skinned gaming pods and/or themed kiosks that will offer playable game demos to all attendees."
The demo features Ryu, Chun-Li, M. Bison, Nash, Cammy, and Birdie. Attendees can simply play regular games, or they can participate in eight-person single elimination tournaments. The tournaments take place on the respective weekends, and the winners will receive special prizes.
Here's the full list of locations and dates.
- Six Flags Discovery Kingdom (Vallejo, CA) – July 2-7
- Six Flags Over Texas (Arlington, TX) – July 4-7
