Gamers will get access to Team Battle Mode, which allows two local teams of up to five different characters battling it out. They’ll also be able to play in two option modes, including elimination and best of series, giving users a tougher challenge.

We’ll also see the addition of Extra Battle Mode, which allows gamers to compete in limited-time challenges to obtain in-game items and materials such as Fight Money, costumes, and experience.

Players will also see special challenges when completing missions that will offer up unique titles. No exact word on what these titles will be, but they will arrive throughout the year.

The Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition released on Jan. 16 for $39.99 and includes the original Street Fighter V game, a season pass for all 12 characters, and all the extra modes mentioned above. For gamers who own Street Fighter V, a free update will arrive for access to the new content.
