Game Description
Street Fighter Alpha 3 is the ultimate evolution of 2D fighting perfection—a stunning showcase of Capcom’s mastery of gameplay, balance, and style on the PlayStation 1. Released in 1999, this definitive entry in the Alpha series brings together an expansive roster, refined combat mechanics, and deep customization options that make it one of the most revered fighting games ever created. With over 30 characters, including legends like Ryu, Chun-Li, Akuma, and newcomers such as Karin Kanzuki and R. Mika, every match feels like a battle of skill, strategy, and precision.
The game’s revolutionary “ISM” system allows players to choose from three unique fighting styles—A-ISM (traditional Street Fighter super combos), X-ISM (single powerful super move in classic SFII style), or V-ISM (custom combo system for advanced players). This innovation introduced unprecedented strategic depth, letting players tailor characters to their preferred playstyle. The World Tour Mode further expands the experience, allowing fighters to level up, learn new abilities, and face challengers across the globe. Combined with lightning-fast gameplay, smooth animation, and explosive visual flair, Street Fighter Alpha 3 delivers a complete and endlessly replayable fighter that defined the genre.
Still celebrated as one of the greatest 2D fighting games of all time, Street Fighter Alpha 3 represents the pinnacle of Capcom’s arcade-to-console craftsmanship. For collectors, competitive players, and fans of the fighting genre, it’s an essential title that showcases the artistry, balance, and intensity that made Capcom a household name in fighting games.
