Street Fighter Zero 3 (ストリートファイターZERO 3) is a 1998 fighting game by Capcom originally released for Capcom CPS-2 arcade hardware. It is the third and final game in the Street Fighter Zero (Street Fighter Alpha in the West) series, following Street Fighter Zero and Street Fighter Zero 2.

This Sega Saturn version of Street Fighter Zero 3 was released in 1999 in Japan only, shortly after a Dreamcast version. It requires the use of the 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge to function.

Story

The megalomaniacal dictator Vega, leader of the crime syndicate Shadaloo, has infused his body with a dark energy called Psycho Power in order to dominate the world and rule over mankind. His insatiable thirst for power has weakened his body, so he has ordered his scientists to transfer his mind into the body of Cammy, a genetically engineered assassin created using his own DNA as a template. However, Cammy has developed self-awareness and gone rogue, so Vega instead turns his sights to Ryu, one of the strongest fighters in the world and the personal nemesis of his right-hand man Sagat.

Shadaloo scientists have also created a diabolical machine called the Psycho Drive, whose purpose is to channel psychic energies to Vega. The Psycho Drive can be used as an ultimate weapon to shoots beams of deadly psychic energy anywhere in the world, and it can also be used to regenerate Vega and make him essentially invincible. The evil energy emitted by the Psycho Drive and the encroaching threat of Shadaloo has drawn a diverse group of warriors into each other's paths.

Like the previous Zero games, the story serves as a prelude to the events of Street Fighter II, but it presents a more focused narrative rather than the sparingly interconnected story threads of the earlier games. The story takes inspiration from the 1994 anime Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie.

Gameplay

Gameplay

The gameplay system from the previous Zero games was given a complete overhaul with the addition of three selectable fighting styles known as "Isms" (X-ism, Z-ism, and V-ism), a greatly expanded roster of characters, and for the first time since Street Fighter II, new theme music for all of the returning characters.

The controls for some actions has been modified from previous games. The level of a Super Combo move in Z-ism is now determined by the strength of the attack button pressed (for example, medium punch or kick for a level 2 Super Combo), rather than the number of buttons pushed. The button combinations for throwing, ground recoveries, and Zero Counters have also been changed. Several new mechanics have been added, such as air recoveries, Counter Hits, and the Guard Power gauge.

Characters move with and and crouch with . They jump with and flip back and forth with and . Punches are done with (jab), (medium), and (fierce), and is equivalent to holding all three punch buttons at once. Kicks are done with (short), (medium), and (roundhouse). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Characters have a wide selection of attacks depending on which button is used and whether they are standing away from the opponent, standing near the opponent (proximity normals), crouching, jumping forwards or backwards, or jumping neutral. Interrupting an opponent's attack with another attack performs a Counter Hit, which does additional damage (and knocks the opponent back if the counter attack is a hard punch or kick). Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button. Fireballs have been significantly weakened and now do less damage when they travel a longer distance. Characters can perform a taunt once per round with (except in X-ism), which is a short animation during which the character is vulnerable to attack.

Throws and grabs are done by holding or when near an opponent and pressing two punch or two kick buttons simultaneously. The character can "whiff" a grab by attempting it outside of range, leaving the character vulnerable to counterattack. Different characters have different throws available to them, and characters can throw in midair as well. Grapple moves cannot be blocked (including special moves involving grappling), but a player can reduce the damage taken from a fall by likewise holding or and pressing two punch or two kick buttons simultaneously. In Z-ism and V-ism, after being hit or blocking in the air, it is possible to roll toward the opponent after landing by pressing two kick buttons simultaneously. After being knocked into the air from the ground, characters can recover by pressing two punch buttons simultaneously (optionally paired with or to flip out of the way).

Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent. Characters can block while standing, which blocks against high and mid attacks but not low attacks (such as sweeps), or crouching, which blocks against mid and low attacks but not high attacks (such as jumping attacks and overhead strikes). Blocking can also be done in midair (except in X-ism), but characters cannot air block against normal attacks from an opponent that is standing on the ground and cannot air block after performing an attack in the air. Special moves still do a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. The game introduces a Guard Power gauge that depletes each time the character blocks. The gauge starts to replenish after not blocking for a moment. If the gauge is completely depleted, then the character is vulnerable to attacks and cannot block. When broken, the bar shrinks, and it is refilled to its new maximum. It can be shrunk a number of times. The initial size of the Guard Power gauge varies depending on the Ism and the character being played. The Guard Power gauge does not exist in the Survival and Dramatic Battle modes. Blocking an attack right when it is about to hit rather than in advance reduces the amount of Guard Power lost (the character flashes blue when this is successful). Characters can also reduce damage taken by pressing any direction and an attack button simultaneously when being hit (the character flashes red when this is successful). In Z-ism and V-ism, characters can perform Zero Counters, special counterattacks that interrupt the opponent's attack while blocking at the expense of some of the Super Combo gauge. Each character has a different Zero Counter for each Ism.

Characters can become dizzy from being attacked repeatedly; they are uncontrollable and vulnerable in this state but can recover more quickly by rapidly pressing back and forth on the D-Pad along with the attack buttons. It is also possible to escape grabs in this way.

Characters have a Super Combo gauge (or an Original Combo gauge in V-ism) that fills as the character performs regular and special techniques or takes damage. The Super Combo gauge is used in different ways depending on which Ism is being played. The Super Combo gauge carries over between rounds (but not between battles). Each character starts the match with a fully filled gauge (though this can be changed to empty in the options).

Fighting styles

After selecting a character, the player is presented with the choice of three fighting styles, called "Isms." Characters often have slightly different normal and special moves depending on the chosen Ism. Some special moves are performed with different button combinations. Characters have different color schemes depending on the selected Ism (and Chun-Li and Sodom have unique sprites when played in X-ism).

Boss characters such as Juli, Juni, and Final Vega use a special "Shadaloo-ism" when fought, which gives them access to special moves unavailable in standard play.

Additional Isms called "Ism-Pluses" can be unlocked in the World Tour mode.

	X-ism
	X-ism is a simple style based on Super Street Fighter II X. X-ism has the highest attack power but least defense. All attacks do more damage, and characters have single-level Super Combo gauges with access to a single but powerful Super Combo move (equivalent to the level 3 move in Z-ism). However, characters cannot air block, perform ground recovery rolls or air recoveries, reduce damage taken from hits or blocks, or use Zero Counters. They also take slightly more damage from attacks, though the Guard Power gauge is longer so they can block more. Characters also cannot taunt in this style, with the exception of Dan.
	Z-ism
	Z-ism is the standard playing style, based on the previous Zero games. Characters have three-level Super Combo gauges with access to multiple Super Combo moves. Characters have access to air blocking, ground and air recoveries, and Zero Counters. Performing a Zero Counter costs one level of the Super Combo gauge and one notch of the Guard Power gauge. Damage done per hit is average (in between the other two styles). Each Super Combo technique has three levels, chosen based on the strength of the punch or kick button used to execute the move. Some Super Combos can only be performed at max level. The Super Combo gauge recharges faster than in X-ism, and characters have access to every Super Combo move in Z-ism but one (Dhalsim's Yoga Tempest is exclusive to X-ism).
	V-ism
	V-ism (for "variable" style) is a unique style that allows the player to perform Original Combos, similar to Street Fighter Zero 2. Characters have a single-level Original Combo gauge and cannot perform Super Combo techniques in this style. Proximity normals are only available by holding away from the opponent while pressing a punch or kick button, which gives the player more control over which attacks are used. Characters have access to air blocking, ground and air recoveries, and Zero Counters. Performing a Zero Counter costs half of the Original Combo gauge and one notch of the Guard Power gauge. Damage done per hit is the lowest of the three styles. Original Combos can be started by pressing a punch and kick button of the same strength simultaneously when the gauge is at least half full. This causes the character to move more quickly and attack with much less recovery time, making it easier to chain moves together. There is a moment of invulnerability after initiating an Original Combo. The Original Combo gauge drains while it is active, and the combo ends when the gauge is empty or if the character is hit out of it. The Original Combo gauge recharges quickly, faster than in the other styles. Characters cannot block while performing an Original Combo, but unlike the previous game, they can move backwards. Charge moves can be performed without charging (for example, the player only needs to press P for a Sonic Boom).

Modes

Survival Mode, 10 Battle

Dramatic Battle

The game has multiple modes:

• Arcade Mode: The single-player mode consists of ten matches against computer-controlled opponents, mostly against randomly chosen characters with random Isms. The fifth and ninth battles are against predetermined opponents depending on the character being played, and they are preceded by brief dialogue scenes between the two characters, similar to the rival battles of the previous Zero games. The final battle is also against a predetermined opponent, which is Final Vega for almost every character (except the hidden character Evil Ryu, who faces Shin Gouki, and Vega himself, who faces Ryu). The final battle is sometimes preceded by a fight against the Shadaloo enforcer M. Bison or a two-on-one fight against the Shadaloo Dolls Juli & Juni. The game can be continued an unlimited number of times, though changing to a different character when continuing starts the player back at the first opponent. A second player can join the game to challenge the other player to a fight by pressing  START , with the victor continuing in the tournament. There are eight different difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents and two game speeds.
• Vs Mode: A dedicated two-player mode. Players choose a character, an Ism, the game speed, and a handicap. The stage is chosen based on the first player's character. The game keeps track of wins and finishers for each player.
• Training Mode: A single-player mode where the player can practice playing a character against a non-hostile opponent. Both characters have vitality and Super Combo gauges that stay fully replenished. The player can select some options with  START , such as whether the opponent blocks attacks or whether the opponent stands, blocks, jumps, or can be controlled manually (using a second control pad).
• World Tour: A single-player mode where the player chooses a character and travels to 19 different locations around the world. Each location consists of one to three stages, which are matches against characters there with different conditions. The player earns experience for the selected character and Ism whenever a stage is completed. Clearing all of the stages in a location unlocks a new location. Each Ism can be leveled up to level 6, and the character can be leveled up to level 32. As the character levels up, the player unlocks Power Balance points, which can be spent on increasing the character's attack or defense, and additional Isms called "Ism-Pluses." Ism-Pluses modify the gameplay in various ways, such as adding back the chain combos from Street Fighter Zero, giving characters unlimited Guard Power, or allowing characters to perform Original Combos outside of V-ism. Characters created in World Tour mode can saved to Entry Slots for use in the other game modes.
• Team Battle: A two-player mode where each player selects two characters and plays a single match against each other. The first round pits each player's first character against each other. The winner continues with the same character in the next round, while the loser loses their first character and continues the fight with their second. The match ends when one player has lost both of their characters.
• Survival Mode: A single-player mode where the player chooses any character and fights a series of opponents in one-round matches. The character's vitality gauge is restored by a certain amount after each match depending on the player's performance: time remaining, vitality remaining, the biggest combo performed, and the finisher used (with Super Combo or Original Combo finishes awarding the most health). The player only has one chance to succeed; the game ends and cannot be continued if the player loses a match. There are multiple courses available. Three of the courses are against single opponents: Arcade (against all of the characters from the original arcade game), Original (against every character in the home version), and Boss (against M. Bison, Balrog, Sagat, Juli & Juni, Gouki, Final Vega, Evil Ryu, and Shin Gouki). The remaining courses are against multiple opponents per match, with one or two in battle at a time and the others entering the match when another is defeated: 10 Battle, 20 Battle, 30 Battle, 50 Battle, and ∞ Battle (which determines the number of total opponents fought). The game keeps track of the best playthroughs for each course (determined by completion time and score). There are no Guard Power gauges in this mode, so characters have unlimited blocking.
• Dramatic Battle: A two-on-one fighting mode that can be played by one player or by two players (if the second player presses  START  on the menus or the character select screen). In single-player games, each character is assigned a predetermined partner (for example, Ryu is partnered with Ken, and Sakura is partnered with Karin). In two-player games, each player can choose any character. Players face a series of opponents in two-on-one fights, with all characters present simultaneously. Characters have separate vitality and Super Combo gauges, and the computer controls the partner character in one-player games. Matches are played to the best of three rounds, and a round is only lost if both characters are defeated. There are no Guard Power gauges in this mode, so characters have unlimited blocking. Players can choose between Arcade Dramatic Battle (six boss fights culminating in a battle against Final Vega) and Original Dramatic Battle (a series of matches against every character in the game). When played by a single player, there is also a Reverse Dramatic Battle mode, where the player chooses a single character and fights matches against every Dramatic Battle team. For any mode, players can choose between the Normal or Survival courses, with the latter following rules similar to the Survival Mode.
• Final Battle: A single-player mode where the player can choose any character and skip straight to the final battle (which is against Final Vega for most characters and not including the fights against M. Bison or Juli & Juni when applicable). The match is not preceded by dialogue as it would be in the Arcade Mode, but the player is rewarded with the character's ending if the battle is won. Like the final battle in the original arcade version, the game cannot be continued if the player loses; instead, the game ends with a bad ending where Vega succeeds in taking over the world (or with Ryu's good ending when playing as Vega).

Records, including high scores and the player's progress in the World Tour mode are saved to the Saturn's internal memory.

Versions

The Saturn game contains most of the features added to the previous PlayStation port of the game, except for supporting the PocketStation peripheral and using polygons instead of sprites for hit indicators (which was done in the PlayStation port to save memory). It uses the extra RAM provided by the 4MB Extended RAM Cartridge to include more frames of animation than the PlayStation version. In the PlayStation version, the Dramatic and Final Battle modes must be unlocked by completing the Arcade Mode on its maximum difficulty setting, and the Team Battle and Survival modes must be unlocked by completing the World Tour mode, but all modes are unlocked from the start on the Saturn version. Similarly, Guile, Evil Ryu, and Shin Akuma (with a simple button combination) are selectable by default in the Saturn version but must be unlocked through the World Tour mode in the PlayStation version. Only Final Vega must be unlocked in the Saturn version (by completing the World Tour mode with a level 32 character).

While the World Tour and Survival modes are virtually unchanged from the PlayStation version, the Saturn version has an improved Dramatic Battle mode with the addition of an Original Dramatic Battle mode (where players fight every character in the game rather than the six boss characters of the arcade version) and Reverse Dramatic Battle (where the player selects a single character and fights every Dramatic Battle team in the game). Every Dramatic Battle mode can also be played with Survival Mode rules in the Saturn version.
