Overview
Street Fighter: The Team Slugfest is a 2.5D team-based fighting game with the characters of Street Fighter from all games will appear in teams of 3 fighters against one another, in a manner similar to The King of Fighters, Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and Skullgirls, but with more of the classic Street Fighter engine.

Story
Invitations have gone out to fighhters all over the world. They have been called to Shad, the manmade island, in order to compete in a tournament known as the Team Slugfest! However, what the warriors are unaware of... is that Graham Alistair, the tournament sponsor and leader of the Alistair Conglomerate, has been seeking to revive the God of Fighting and gain its powers to strengthen his own abilities as a warrior.

Gameplay
Street Fighter: The Team Slugfest is like any Street Fighter game, other than it plays primarily like the Marvel vs. Capcom games and Street Fighter X Tekken as well as The King of Fighters and Skullgirls, with you picking teams of 3 in standard gameplay, and tagging in and out.

Super Arts, special moves, and combos galore are available with almost the entire cast from the past being available along with some new characters as well. Each character has a Super Meter that goes up to 5 Levels, allowing you to do different Super Arts at stronger levels of strength as well as EX Special Moves that do more damage, as well as Red Focus Attacks.

Combos in this game are similar to past Street Fighter games but also utilize the Magic Series where you can hit Light Punch to Medium Punch to Heavy Punch, with each character's Magic Series varying based on their character type and their fighting styles. You also can tag in your partners in a combo to extend your combo.

This will also apply to any new characters.

Ryu

The wandering warrior, Ryu is ever seeking the answer to what makes a great warrior. His skills in Ansatsuken are developed from his training under his adopted father and sensei, Gouken, as well as his own wordly experiences. Because of his spirit, Ryu has made many friends and rivals, as well as faced impossible challenges. Even with his having understood the Power of Nothingness that his master knows, Ryu is still learning to use it to keep himself focused and away from the Satsui no Hado, no matter how dormant it is within his soul.

The son of an American businessman and a Japanese woman, Ken trained under Gouken in the art of Ansatsuken in order to learn discipline. He learned quite a bit under Gouken and made a lifelong friend with Ryu. Even as he returned home to America, Ken grew more skilled as a fighter, becoming the No. 1 martial artists in the country. Though he is now married to his long time girlfriend Eliza and has a son, Mel, as well as his own "apprentice" as well as running the Masters Corporation, Ken still enjoys a good fight now and again!

Though he is older, Retsu remains quite wise, passing on words of wisdom to any who challenge him, as he continues to seek physical and spiritual illumination.

Gameplay Style

Retsu is more of a close range character, with powrerful impact-style special moves meant to hit hard and fast, so he borrows principles from Makoto. Although a bit speedier than Makoto, he still doesn't have much walking speed. Though he compensates by the fact many Special Moves he has can provide protection with some Armor, akin to a Focus Attack.

Shamed, Geki returned to the mountains of Japan, training himself diligently, as he and his clan carried out many tasks from assassinations, political work and such. Now he has been hired once again for another important task.

Gameplay Style

Geki's game is speed, speed, speed, as well as controlling the arena. He can easily use his Magic Series combos with all 6 attack buttons, as well as leap across the field quickly, similar to Vega. Though he also has some good mid range and close range options, Geki can control the field with his moves and his speed, as well as punish opponents with his combos.

As a plain-clothes cop, Joe has been responsible for stopping all sorts of illegal activity, even to the point he took on a whole group of former Skull Cross Gang members by himself. Even as much as he loves the thrill of the fight, Joe has found being a cop is even more exciting!

Gameplay Style

Joe is a kind of in-your-face smashmouth style fighter, similar in the veins of of Ralf Jones and Shen Woo from The King of Fighters, plus some elements of Kevin Rian from Garou: Mark of the Wolves. He can't control the field from long range, but a lot of his moves will allow him to handle long range characters. Closing the gap, Joe can be pretty nasty, especially when his special moves and Super Arts can hit hard

Mike

A boxer who had been at the top of his game, until he had been thrown out of the boxing circuit for accidentally killing an opponent due to the involvement of mobsters who wanted him to lose, Mike took to street fighting to help his sister Sarah, who had been quite sick. Though he was defeated by Ryu in the first World Warrior tournament, he had gotten some wise words from Ryu, and began to strive to re-enter the world of professional boxing. Though he hasn't officially got his return match set up, Mike is ready to do it right.

Gameplay Style

In terms of how boxers are in Street Fighter, Mike fights differently from Balrog and Dudley. Where Balrog can focus on a strong offense or a strong defense, and Dudley is good at closing the gap and doing combos, but Mike varies. He is close range as a boxer character, but he also is capable of being able to use some mid t0 long range capabilities as well and is more of a moderate speed. character that can be good for zoning, as well as hitting quickly at close quarters.

Though he lost, he would go on to pass on his arts to Chun-Li, the daughter of Dorai, an old friend.

Gameplay Style
