    Looks like champion edition has a free demo version on the Google Play Store, so that's cool.

      Yes, the demo is the actual game. If you want through the settings, you can purchase the full edition that unlocks all characters and online mode but will have you download extra files to access them. I did this a few weeks ago, and surprisingly, people still play online.

    I owned the X360 version, then bought the 3DS version to play at work. After I sold my 3DS, I still had a hankering to play SF4 on the go and forgot they ported it to mobile. I still have it installed on my phone and it's a pretty faithful port to mobile.

      @@SOK39 I tell myself the same thing.
      Even freaking 3rd strike looks and plays better than sfiv ce (looking especially at the hardest difficulty AI since they're different fundamentally).
      Even in the simplest brain reasoning, it should cost them little to nothing to increase the visuals, yeah. In a period when they're remaking games from the PS1 era, with ray tracing and shiz.
      If I had to guess, they probably did what Nintendo did for Mario kart 64, taking pictures of the actual models to play "pretend 3D." I'd think that shouldn't be impossible for them to do once again with a higher fidelity this time.
      But Capcom doesn't really take the mobile scene seriously nowadays.
      SF duel is a great example of that;
      Always online *Gacha* street fighter is the way to go on mobile, of course!
      When I tried this game out for the very first time with it's 20fps frame rate and extremely low res textures I was shocked.
      The game was released for Android in 2018! There are mobile games that came out *years* prior that look and run miles better even today.
      Of course they probably did put in the best effort they could back then, due credits given.
      But for a game pretty much on life support 6 years later and is still asking for a "full experience" payment, that's unacceptable.
      I keep dreaming of a graphical overhaul just happening one day, if I live to see it.

    The free version of championship edition was pretty good, KOF XIII also has a similar iOS/Android port like this. Unfortuntaely it's old so the screen is in a different aspect ratio and the framerate is cut in half, but otherwise it's surirpsingly good. High quality mobile games are a lost art, and also literally becoming lost. If you have an old iPhone (or iPad), I think the 5 is ideal since it's the last 32-bit one, and one you can get back on iOS 6, and then jailbreak it. See what kind of stuff you can find and sideload, like MVC2's lost port, Capcom and Namco were both big supporters of iOS back then making lots of games for the platform like I Love Katamari, Katamari Amore, the Time Crisis Strike games, Ridge Racer Accelerated and Slipstream, a port of Star Trigon, Pac-Man Remix, a nice SoulCalibur port that actually had widescreen unlike the XBLA release. Konami had stuff like MGS Touch and that crappy Silent Scope game, and Capcom had a compilation and some downscaled "ports" and so on and that's not to mention a fair amount of new IP that launched and died on mobile like Demon's Score from inis. among with lots of other developers, MTX free and designed as a fuller experience than the stuff you see on Apple's top charts today.

    I played a LOT of Street Fighter 4 Volt. I was traveling at the time and was playing a lot of SF4 back int he day and this was a way to just still enjoy the game on the go. I actually managed to find someone who had the game on their phone too and we matched each other while we were on a bus trip essentially. This was really great to have on the go though and I remember when Street Fighter 6 showed off its modern controls, I immediately thought back to SFIV mobile because of the Special Command button and simplified controls. Though, I play SF6 with traditional controls.

    When it came to Capcom fighting games on the iOS, these were the ones I would play. I did not own a console that can play SFIV at the time. They were surprisingly fun for mobile games. It is a shame that these iOS fighting games are sorta of lost in time.
    Side note: MvC2 and SFxT were games I had fun time playing on Apple devices. It seems Capcom's devs are pretty smart when developing mobile games.

    I still play CE to this day and owned all 3 versions. Regular SFIV was one of the huge reasons I bought an iPhone in the first place as having a portable SF game was amazing at the time, and I’ve loved it ever since. The only other fighting games I can think of that were/are at this quality are KOF 2012i and SoulCalibur (which sadly isn’t available anymore). My only ever gripe with this game is that the original SFIV had 2 DLC skins, one for Ryu and one for Chun Li for 99¢. They never came back and they did not work for future versions. Other than that, one of the best mobile games ever made.
