The wait is nearly over to have Street Fighter V on Linux & SteamOS. The developers have confirmed it will be available for us this Spring.

QuoteAttention Steam users and Street Fighter V players! Our development team is working closely with Valve engineers to bring the full Street Fighter V experience onto the SteamOS platform.

This will be a free update to all Street Fighter V Steam players and will be released this Spring. More news will be shared soon, so stay tuned.


So, Valve are helping with both Street Fighter and Rocket League. I wonder how many others they are helping with.

Valve are well known for taking their time and delaying things as well.

Great choice, maybe the best arcade controller around nowadays, but quite pricey ^_^

I got this one and replaced the china buttons/stick with Sanwa parts.

Works great for me on Arch :)

looks like the reviews so far indicate SF5 being a real flop. seems like nothing works even on windows... kind of reminds me of the latest Batman game. Game companies releasing way to early and then on top of that charge full MSRP for subpar quality plus release DLCs for the full game. the state of gaming in the AAA market is nutts to put it lightly.
I'll just have to wait for the super mega - all included deal for $30 after everything is fixed :P
Seriously though, no arcade mode? no trial mode... then the online multiplayer network is having lots of issues. ( that is absolutely no way to release a game) Capcom is about as bad as EA at this point.

Yes, a real disappointment.
Hopefully, the Linux/SteamOS launch will be the game's "real" launch ;)

[Edit]: "The ‘cinematic’ story mode (presumably something along the lines of recent Mortal Kombat games) won’t be here until June. Basic features, such as spectator mode for multiplayer lobbies and a suite of character-specific combo challenges—both of which were in Street Fighter IV at launch all those years ago—won’t be available until March. What remains is by turns intoxicating and infuriating, a marvellous fighting game wrapped up in a truly miserable framework—especially for the single player."

See? By the time it reaches Linux it's feature-full and as polished as an SNK title :D
