Street Fighter EX
The fighting system of Street Fighter EX uses the fighting systems of the Street Fighter II and Street Fighter Alpha series. In many ways, EX still plays like a 2D fighting game, but the linear plane on which the characters fight often changes along a 3D battlefield. The game uses special moves and super combos that are familiar or similar to previous games in the series. As in Alpha and Darkstalkers, the super combo meter, which can be used to perform super combos and other moves, has been divided into three levels. The game introduces various new features to improve the player's combat capabilities. This was followed by an updated arcade version titled Street Fighter EX Plus and a PlayStation-exclusive home console version titled Street Fighter EX Plus α, both released in 1997.
