Theoretically it would make sense that the wall was a last minute addition and the 12 disc-locked characters potentially could have been unlocked by actually playing the game.
As some individuals speculated already, the 12 locked fan-favorite characters could have been arbitrarily chosen and it very well could have been any of the 38 (or 43 in the case of the PS3) characters locked behind the wall.Īs noted by the hackers, the wall itself was a very flimsy safeguard to protect the characters, meaning that it was either a last minute addition or Capcom just didn't care. Some gamers were hoping that Capcom would release these characters over a course of time for a fixed priced as suggested by GiantBomb, instead Capcom announced that all 12 characters would be available for $20 alongside the release of the PS Vita version of the game, as reported by Venture Beat.Īdditionally, the hackers revealed that the characters are also interchangeable from behind the "hex wall", which they showcased in their ranked Xbox Live matches, meaning that characters could be moved from behind the wall or put behind the wall by interchanging roster slots.
Those 12 additional characters are also available on the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of the game and are, without a shadow of a doubt, as complete as the other pugilists on the roster. Purportedly, the characters are not to be made accessible on the home consoles until the PS Vita version releases in order to help boost the appeal of Sony's new handheld. In result, Sony went the extra step to not only secure exclusive characters for their version of Street Fighter X Tekken (i.e., Kuro, Toro, Cole, Megaman and Pac-Man) but allegedly also paid Capcom for 12 additional timed-exclusive characters for the PS Vita version of the game, which is due out this fall. Sony was willing to pony up some money and pay for additional characters, as reported by CVG, however Microsoft was not feeling it and declined to have first-party characters appear in Street Fighter X Tekken.
Allegedly, Capcom went to Sony and Microsoft for exclusive content for each version of Street Fighter X Tekken.
