Capcom Reveals Street Fighter 4, Dark Void, Lost Planet on PS3

At the Capcom Gamer's Day in London, game developer and publisher Capcom revealed it's begun work on Street Fighter 4, the first new title in the central Street Fighter series of seminal fighting games since 1997's Street Fighter 3, according to a now-removed story at Games Radar. Work on the title has just started for unannounced platforms, and Capcom insinuated a 2009 release would be the earliest gamers would see the fighter in arcades or at retail. The company additionally confirmed its newest IP, revealed in trademark filings earlier this week, called Dark Void. The title is a sci-fi action-adventure in the third-person, with steampunk trappings like jetpacks, airships, gyrocopters and the like. No platforms or estimated release dates were announced for the title. Capcom also announced that last year's ultra-cold shooter Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (PC, X360) will be making its way to PlayStation 3 early next year. The game will thankfully include all the downloadable content and bonuses available for the PC and Xbox 360 versions when it retails, so gamers won't have to wait for Sony's PlayStation Network to get its expanded downloadable content stream in working order.
