The producer of Street Fighter V has urged fans of the series who own an Xbox One to start saving for a PS4.

The game’s PS4 and PC exclusivity was confirmed last December, and the publisher has subsequently confirmed that no iteration of the game will ever be available on Xbox One.

“There’s plenty of time to save $300 before the game comes out,” Yoshinori Ono told GameSpot when asked if he had a message for Xbox One owners. “The PlayStation 4 is at a very attractive price point at the moment.”

Xbox boss Phil Spencer has previously promised to “make amends” for the game’s absence from his machine.

Ono also confirmed that while the game will offer microtransactions, paid-for content will be purely cosmetic. Some of it will only available via the premium Zenny currency while some can be obtained via the earned Fighter Money.

“We’ve revealed new details on how players can earn Fight Money,” he added. “The first is by completing daily goals, which can be something like getting five wins in ranked mode, or executing 30 special moves. It should be something that’s fairly easy to accomplish to get the bonus, and it also rewards players that are continuously engaging with the game. Rather than build a system that requires players to grind for hours on hours, we’d rather just have them come in on a regular basis and complete a daily goal.

“The other philosophy we have with the system is we want to encourage players to experiment with the variety of characters. So another way to get Fight Money is to level up individual characters in the game. Levelling up won’t affect gameplay balance, just lets players know how much time has been spent perfecting a specific character. But with those two combined you can get a sense of where we’re going with the system.

“It’s a system that is supposed to create long-term engagement with fans and allow them to really work towards getting content for free in the future. We’d like it to be an achievable task for just about anyone.”

Dat Sony money hat

I'll wait until the last guardian comes out.
 
I thought exclusives were bad for the industry? Not this week?
Not this week. But remember, resolution and performance is key, so this game is a must on PC. LULZ on console.
 
these new type of 2.5d street fighters suck, i like 2 and 3 (and variations)and the alpha series, and my favorite was snk vs sf.
 
get it on Microsoft Windows 10, sure!

Beside that SONY have been shooting a lot of mouth again like in the ps2 era. I really hate when they do this and act like they forgot what happened to the ps3.

They are also doing it to tomb radier. But they are quite on battlefront because its not first.

He works for Capcom not Sony
 
Probably will have more time to save $$$ than we think, the ps4 version will probably be delayed, just like most every other game they have.
 
Lulz. He didn't play their own game online. And the PS4 controller is pretty bad.

No thanks!

this trolling totally makes sense especially since the release date was just moved closer. Good thing it now comes out b4 the many times delayed quantum break.

Don't forget, Microsoft is working on streaming from PC to XBOX ONE:

Street Fighter will come to XBOX ONE!!!
 
I don't like the game anyway because it is not coming to a console I own

I am still trying to figure out what exactly sets SF5 apart from SF4. I have yet to see the devs say any specific about it. Then again, I haven't exactly had a close eye on the game.

Anybody care to fill me in?

That's sad you can only list QB vs an onslaught on ps4 games delayed.

Right Capcom, last chance.

Make Street Fighter 4, Super Street Fighter 4, Ultra Street Fighter 4, Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting, Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix and Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike backwards compatible and I will call off the dogs.

Yep. The thread title is a bit misleading. Not that I am blaming the thread maker. He read article and made a thread with a title based on the article.

If you read the source article from Gamespot he seems to be joking, or at least not totally serious.

"[Laughs] There’s plenty of time to save $300 before the game comes out. The PlayStation 4 is at a very attractive price point at the moment. [Laughs]"
