The latest update to the Street Fighter 4 series has been given a release window, giving priority to those who own previous versions. Ultra Street Fighter IV will arrive on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in early June as digital upgrades to Super Street Fighter IV and Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, arriving in time for next year's EVO tournament, as previously promised. PC owners will have to wait a little longer, as their version won't hit until August.

The announcement comes from Capcom's senior community specialist Peter 'Combofiend' Rosas, who adds that PC owners will also be able to purchase the full USF4 digital bundle with all previously-released costume DLC for $29.99. This package will also be available to Xbox 360 and PS3 as a retail disc, also set to release in August, for $39.99.

Those looking to make the digital upgrade to their existing games will be able to do so for $14.99.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

      GFWL is no more right? I'll finally be able to buy this then. I got AE through mail order on DVD which I've already lost since I don't have a place where I put my DVDs.

        I still have my AE dvd and I really hope capcom allows me to tranfer it to steam. They've said they would find a way but they haven't said anything on the matter in months.

      Games for Windows Live is supposed to shut down at the start of July, at which point SSF4 Arcade Edition will stop working. That'll leave PC gamers for a month without Street Fighter.

      Is Capcom is going to patch SSF4 Arcade Edition to remove GfWL so it keeps working until August?
