The Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a group of fighting games from the Street Fighter series. It was created by Digital Eclipse and released by Capcom to mark the 30th anniversary of the series. The collection came out for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One in May 2018.
Gameplay
The Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection is a group of arcade versions of twelve fighting games (thirteen for the Switch version) from the Street Fighter series:
- Street Fighter (1987)
- Street Fighter II: The World Warrior (1991), Champion Edition (1992), Turbo: Hyper Fighting (1992), Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers (1993), Super Street Fighter II: The Tournament Battle (1993, Switch exclusive), Super Street Fighter II Turbo (1994)
- Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams (1995), Alpha 2 (1996), Alpha 3 (1998)
- Street Fighter III: New Generation (1997), 2nd Impact – Giant Attack (1997), 3rd Strike – Fight for the Future (1999)
In any of the twelve (or thirteen) games, players can use save points to pause and restart their progress at any time. Four games—Hyper Fighting, Super Turbo, Alpha 3, and 3rd Strike—support online play, including ranked matches. Online lobbies can have up to four players. While waiting for online matches, players can fight computer-controlled opponents. The Nintendo Switch version includes an exclusive eight-player tournament mode for Super Street Fighter II, playable locally with four consoles.
The collection includes extra features such as a museum to view concept art, design documents, and facts about each game; a music player to listen to songs from the series; an interactive timeline showing the series’ history; and biographies with background information, character stories, sprite art, and animations.
Development and release
The Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection was created by Digital Eclipse and released by Capcom. To help players have less delay during online games, the team used "rewind" technology and let players change how quickly their actions are sent through an in-game menu.
Capcom shared news about the collection in December 2017 at the end of the Capcom Cup Street Fighter tournament. The collection was available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on May 29, 2018. However, the release was delayed in Japan to consider fan suggestions. A digital copy of Ultra Street Fighter IV was added for those who ordered the PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One versions before the release.
This collection does not include Hyper Street Fighter II (2003), which was part of the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection, or Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold, Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper, and Hyper Street Fighter Alpha, which were in the Street Fighter Alpha Anthology. Hyper Street Fighter II and Alpha 3 Upper were released again in the Capcom Fighting Collection in 2022 and the Capcom Fighting Collection 2 in 2025.
In Japan, the collection is called Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection International. It includes both the international and Japanese versions of each game.
Reception
The collection received mostly positive reviews from critics. It reached number 6 in the UK sales charts and number 10 in Australia. In Japan, the game sold 21,000 copies combined on the PS4 and Switch, reaching #4 on the PS4 and #6 on the Switch. By November 2019, the collection had sold 1 million copies worldwide. By September 2025, sales reached 3.70 million copies.
