On social media, Capcom shared the exciting news that it’s bringing 32 more arcade classics to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and PC through the upcoming release of Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium.

The collection follows in the footsteps of last year’s Capcom Arcade Stadium release which likewise featured 32 arcade classics like Commando, Dynasty Wars, Street Fighter II, and Ghosts ‘n Goblins to name just a few.

Similar to last year’s collection, Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium will offer one free base download game. As noted by Capcom, “SonSon will be a free download with this collection, and pre-orders/early purchases of Capcom Fighting Collection will also get Three Wonders as a bonus at launch.”

The Capcom Fighting Collection is set to release this year on June 24. As for when the launch of Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium will take place, Capcom has yet to share both release date information for the collection and what sort of games prospective buyers can expect to see.

With that being said, Capcom noted in its tweet that it promises to share more information soon. And, given that the Capcom Fighting Collection is slated to release on June 24, it’s possible we may hear more about Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium sometime later this summer.

While we wait to hear more about Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium, we’re curious to hear your thoughts on what sort of games you’d like to see in the collection.
