The exact right kind of ridiculous.

I truly cannot believe Capcom has done this. It's made a gigantic fighting game with a classic arcade mode, bottomless tutorials and training options, a variety of new combat mechanics that all seem to gel… and also, on top of all that, the cheesiest, most absurd story mode in fighting game history. Capcom has essentially built one of Sega's Like a Dragon games, but replaced the gangsters with their own quirky NPCs who live to fight and think Chun Li is just as cool as I do.

You start as the apprentice of new series star Luke, who immediately sends you out into the city to learn the ropes of street fighting instead of training you in his dojo. When I say everyone in this game loves Street Fighter, I mean it. All anyone wants to talk about is fighting. Every last NPC has a level ranking to tell you how strong they are. One of my first missions is to buy a hot dog from a cart. I can press A on a controller to buy the hot dog, or X to fight him, insead.

There are weird characters to talk to all over the place who aren't part of Street Fighter's playable cast of characters—I'm pretty sure that's a series first. It feels like a clever way for Capcom to test out potential characters for future DLC while also putting legends like Chun-Li around normal people. She teaches martial arts in Chinatown, and has one follower who looks up to her so much he won't even spar with you if you dare come equipped with another fighting style.
