A collection of twelve games from the Street Fighter series released on its 30th anniversary. It also includes the so-called museum, in which not only we can listen to all original soundtracks and take a closer look at the cast, but also read design documents and follow the evolution of the franchise throughout the years.
Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Edition is a compilation of twelve slightly remastered fighting games from the Street Fighter franchise, released to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series. The pack has been developed by Digital Eclipse studio and released by Capcom.
Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Edition consists of following titles: Street Fighter, Street Fighter II, Street Fighter II: Champion Edition, Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike.
Additionally, the Nintendo Switch’s version includes Super Street Fighter II: The Tournament Battle (which lets us participate in 8-players tournaments), while those who pre-ordered the compilation for others platforms received Street Fighter IV as a bonus.
Aside from games themselves, developers prepared the Museum, where we can learn more about the cast of the series, read design documents, listen to soundtracks and see the development of the franchise throughout the years.
Games included in Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Edition offers both single player modes (in which we face opponents controlled by artificial intelligence) and local multiplayer options. What’s more, Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Super Street Fighter II: Turbo, Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike online competition and rankings to show of our achievements.
Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Edition includes titles from the whole 30 years history of the franchise, with almost the same graphics as in original releases. Since the game is shown on the 4:3 screen, the rest of the space is filled with images depicting e.g. protagonists of the series.

Game Ratings for Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 9 / 10 by Damien McFerran
While some of the games included in this compendium are rendered somewhat superfluous by the fact that far superior sequels and updates exist alongside them, Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection remains an utterly essential purchase for any self-respecting fighting game fan. Because of Street Fighter's importance to the genre, this is like a history lesson in how the one-on-one fighter has evolved over time; from its rather bumbled inception with the original Street Fighter to its break-out moment with the sequel and its slow and steady refinement with the Super, Alpha and Street Fighter III sub-series. Granted, you'll end up wanting more – it would have been nice to see some of the spin-off titles like X-Men Vs. Street Fighter make the cut, if only as bonus items – but it's not the fault of the game that we're inherently greedy by nature. The only other point to make is that the experience really benefits from using the right controller; while the Joy-Con are perfectly acceptable when you're hosting impromptu local multiplayer challenges and the Pro Controller's D-Pad is able, we found the 8bitdo SN30 and SN30 Pro pads to be much better options, and if you have an arcade stick that's compatible with Switch, now is the ideal time to dig it out – this is fighting game nirvana, pure and simple.

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection brings together some of the greatest fighting games of all time - many of which are still top-tier titles today - complete with slick online gameplay and a fully-featured training mode, all for 40 bucks. Though SF30 doesn't quite live up to its potential as a comprehensive historical document, ultimately, The Fight is all that matters. In that regard Capcom, some 30 years later, just scored another K.O. We await your return, warrior.
