The debate over the golden era of fighting games rages on. Was it the 90s, with classics like Street Fighter III? The 2000s, with the rise of Guilty Gear? Or perhaps the 2020s, dominated by titles like Tekken? Regardless of opinions, few can deny that Street Fighter IV played a pivotal role in reigniting passion for this beloved genre.

Now, Netflix Games has brought Street Fighter IV: Championship Edition to your fingertips. This iconic title features over 30 fighters and 12 iconic stages, from the classic duo Ryu and Ken to fan-favorites like Elena and Dudley from Third Strike, and newcomers such as C. Viper and Juri Han. Whether you're looking to battle online or enjoy solo play, all you need is a standard Netflix subscription to dive into the action. Controllers are supported for gameplay, although they can't be used for navigating menus (no information yet on fight-sticks).

Street Fighter IV is brimming with content, offering an arcade mode for each character and customizable difficulty settings to help you hone your skills. As a beginner, you might find the competition tough, given the years of experience many players have accumulated. However, the game is perfect for newcomers with its adjustable difficulty and comprehensive tutorials designed to teach you the essentials of fighting games.
