Street Fighter: The Movie, known in Japan as Street Fighter: Real Battle on Film (ストリートファイター リアルバトル オン フィルム), is a Sega Saturn fighting game developed by Capcom. It was first published in Japan by Capcom themselves in August 1995; a United States release would follow only weeks later by Acclaim Entertainment, who would also go on to publish the game in Europe, Brazil, and Australia.

The game is based on the 1994 film Street Fighter, making it an uncommon case of a video game based on a movie based on a video game. It departs from the hand-drawn sprites of the other Street Fighter games, instead using pre-rendered digitized graphics of characters from the live-action movie, in a manner similar to Mortal Kombat.

A different Street Fighter: The Movie, developed by Incredible Technologies, was released into the arcades some months prior. However, the home console versions were developed separately by Capcom and differ significantly in gameplay and presentation, though they share the same digitized graphics.

A Sega 32X version was once planned, but eventually cancelled.

Story

The game follows the plot of the movie, which is only loosely based on Street Fighter II.

Colonel William F. Guile is tasked with bringing down General M. Bison, the military dictator and drug kingpin of Shadaloo City who aspires to conquer the world with an army of genetic supersoldiers. Bison has captured several international relief workers, and he is threatening to kill them unless a ransom is delivered in three days. Guile enlists the aid of street fighters Ryu and Ken to infiltrate Bison's empire and help destroy it from within. Meanwhile, news reporter Chun-Li Zang, whose father was killed by Bison, and her crew, former sumo wrestler Edmond Honda and boxer Balrog, have their own scheme to assassinate Bison.

Gameplay

The console Street Fighter: The Movie plays similarly to Super Street Fighter II Turbo. Like that game, it is a versus fighting game where two challengers attempt to win the best of three rounds in battles with each other. Graphics consist of digitized images of the film's cast, with characters retaining most of their moves from Super Turbo.

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 kicks are done with (short), (medium), and (roundhouse). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button.

Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, with special moves still doing a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. 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). 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.

Throws and grabs are done by holding or when next to an opponent and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. Different characters have different throws available to them, and some characters can throw in midair. Throws cannot be blocked, but a player can recover from a throw in the air and reduce the damage taken by likewise holding or and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button.

Players have a Super Combo gauge, which is empty at the beginning of the round but increases as the characters perform special moves or land attacks (other than throws and grabs) on their opponents. The Super Combo gauge can be spent by performing Super Combos or Super Special moves. The Super Special moves are new to the series: they are empowered versions of the character's special moves that are performed using the same motions as the special move but pressing two attack buttons instead of only one (similar to the "ES moves" in the Darkstalkers series). For example, a Super Special variant of a projectile attack might shoot two projectiles in quick succession. Not all special moves have Super Special versions. The Super Combo gauge must be at least half-full to use a Super Special move; if the gauge is full, using a Super Special move does not cost any energy from the gauge.

When the Super Combo gauge is full, characters can perform Super Combos, which are powerful special moves that hit opponents multiple times for heavy damage. Super Combos use more complex button combinations than standard special moves. If the opponent is defeated by a Super move at the end of the round, the background changes to a burst of light to indicate it was used as the final move.

Modes

Branching paths

Music video

Akuma fight

There are four game modes available:

• Movie Battle: The primary single-player mode. It is a story mode that follows the plot of the movie. The player controls Guile on a mission to infiltrate Bison's headquarters in Shadaloo City. The first fight is against Bison and does not have to be won to proceed. Then the player has 50 minutes to complete the remaining fights. Cammy presents the player with a choice of two different paths to take after each match, which determines the opponent that is faced next, eventually culminating in a final showdown against Bison (consisting of two matches). Fights do not have time limits and can be repeated if lost. However, the game ends if the total time runs out before the player reaches Bison for the final fight. In the Japanese version, completing this mode plays a music video for the song "Something There" by the Japanese popular music duo Chage and Aska, which includes cameo appearances of actors from the film and clips from the film. Once unlocked, the music video can be viewed from the "Back Up Menu" at any time.
• Street Battle: An arcade mode where the player chooses any character and faces a series of 12 computer-controlled opponents, ending with the bosses Zangief, Dee Jay, Sagat, and Bison. Akuma can be fought instead of Bison if certain conditions are fulfilled. The game ends if the player loses a match but can be continued an unlimited number of times. 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.
• Versus Battle: A two-player versus mode where players can choose a handicap and a stage. The game keeps track of wins and losses for each player (which is saved to the console's internal memory if the players enter names before starting the game).
• Trial Battle: A single-player mode where the player plays a series of matches against computer-controlled opponents. The player's performance is given a rating in different categories after each battle.

There are eight difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents.

Playable

The majority of the cast from the film reprised their roles for the game, with some of the actors dressed to more closely resemble their video game counterparts. Notably absent is Raúl Juliá, who appears only in archive footage from the movie. Though he was keen to reprise his role as M. Bison and had met with the development team, he was too unwell and would die shortly thereafter of a stroke. His character is portrayed by his stunt double instead. Also absent is Robert Mammone, who played Blanka in the movie. He was replaced with his stunt double, presumably due to the character's complicated moveset. Additionally, Guile is simultaneously played by actor Jean-Claude Van Damme and stuntman Mark Stefanich, due to Van Damme only being available for a limited amount of time.

While the cast of the movie is similar to Super Street Fighter II, Dhalsim and T. Hawk are not represented in the game, while Fei Long was excluded from both. Akuma, from Super Street Fighter II Turbo, has been added (portrayed by Ernie Reyes, Sr., who did some stuntwork in the film), along with Sawada, an original character specific to the film.

Compared to the arcade version, Blanka and Dee Jay are unique to the home versions, while the four palette-swapped Bison shock troops (Blade, Arkane, Khyber, and F7) are absent.

History

Release

In Europe, Street Fighter: The Movie was distributed in packaging similar to that of its North American counterpart, the only instance in the Saturn's library to opt for the elongated jewel case design rather than the bespoke Saturn cases seen with other software.

Versions

Street Fighter: The Movie is the only game in the series where the boss characters Balrog, Vega, and M. Bison are addressed by their Western names in the Japanese release. The Japanese instruction card features the original Japanese names of the characters written next to the Western names in parentheses to avoid confusion. The hidden character Akuma is the exception to this, as he appears under his original Japanese name, Gouki.
