A YouTube mini-game called Street Fighter Combo Challenge has been available since September 2. It plays the main promotional video for the live-action film Street Fighter: The Movie, set for worldwide release on October 16, on an arcade cabinet-style screen. Players press keys in time with on-screen prompts for sessions of 2 to 3 minutes, with scores and best scores shown at the end. Keyboard input works on PC, and the game runs in the YouTube app.
The new Street Fighter: The Movie trailer is not a standard video upload. It sits inside Street Fighter Combo Challenge, a rhythm-style YouTube mini-game that has been live since September 2.
The trailer plays on a screen styled like an arcade cabinet, and the player presses keys to match button prompts as the footage runs. Each session lasts about 2 to 3 minutes, and the game ends with a score and the player's best score. Precise timing raises the total. Keyboard input is supported on PC, and the game can be played in the YouTube app.
The film is scheduled for worldwide simultaneous release on October 16.
