Patch Notes for Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition

Jan 10, 2018 // Andy Wong

We’re only one week away from Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! Last week, we gave you an all-in-one look at the new major features coming with SFV: Arcade Edition, but there’s still a big aspect that we haven’t announced yet: the patch notes! In addition to general adjustments across the board, all 28 characters have received balance changes. Hunker down and get ready to hit the lab to discover how these changes affect your gameplay from January 16!

UPDATING STREET FIGHTER V

The Street Fighter V servers will be going down for maintenance in the early morning (Pacific Time) of January 16*. The SFV: Arcade Edition patch and server maintenance will then be completed in the afternoon on the same day. After we have released the update, SFV: Arcade Edition disc owners must connect to the internet to receive the latest update, which includes Extra Battle Mode, Team Battle Mode and new balance changes. They’ll also be able to redeem the code that comes with the disc to unlock Character Pass 1 and 2 content.

Current owners of Street Fighter V will also need to download the patch in order to update to SFV: Arcade Edition. Once the download is complete, all the aforementioned modes and changes will be present when booting up the game.

* In Europe and Australia, the SFV: Arcade Edition disc and digital copy will arrive on January 19.

GENERAL

Training Mode Options

  • In the Attack Data display, you can now view each action’s frame data.
  • You can now turn on Frame Advantage in Color to determine when each action has advantage.
    • If the character is in blue, they have advantage. If they’re in red, they have disadvantage. Take a look at the example below.

Fighter ID and Home Change

  • As of January 16, you will be able to change your Fighter ID (FID) and Home (flag) using either 200K Fight Money or MSRP $9.99 in the store.
    • One purchase of the “Fighter ID & Home Change” ticket will allow you one access opportunity where you can change your FID and Home once.
    • Even if you change only the FID or only the Home during this access, it will still consume the ticket and count as an instance. So if you want to change both, please change them at this time.
    • All items purchased from the in-game shop and/or the PlayStation Store and/or the Steam Store as well as play data will not be affected when changing your FID and/or Home.
    • Updated FID and Home flag will not be reflected in some portion of the game such as previous play history (e.g. Battle Log, Replay Data, etc.)
    • Once a FID has been updated, the former FID name will not be made available to other users. However, if the original user of the name wishes to change their name back to the old name, this can be done.
    • Please be aware that selecting a Home has no bearing on matchmaking.

Grand Master Rank

  • The Grand Master Rank is now available for players who have League Points of over 35,000.
