Today must be Capcom comparison day. In addition to a Resident Evil: Revival Selection video, Capcom shared a screenshot of Akuma from Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Online Edition before and after HD filtering.
“We didn’t redraw the graphics, of course, those are done with filters and things like that,” Seth Killian said in an interview with Siliconera. “Even though there are just filters, there was still a lot of work put into that.”
Capcom aren’t saying what kind just yet, but they’re hoping that DLC updates will help offset the cost of selling the game at a relatively cheaper price.
“The first time I wrote this document for this game was probably, maybe, two and half years ago. When we put together the basic pitch, we did have as part of the potential budget a rebalance,” Seth Killian answered.
