New batch of Street Fighter X Tekken screenshots highlight six new Vita characters

Capcom has released another batch of screenshots for the upcoming PS Vita version of Street Fighter X Tekken and attention is once again on the new characters.

Unlike the last round of screenshots provided, however, this batch is heavier on the Tekken characters than it is on Street Fighter.

Cody and Guy are the only two new Street Fighter characters to make an appearance in this batch, and they round out the six new default characters to represent that franchise for the Vita (Sakura, Blanka, Elena, and Dudley were featured last week).

Joining Lars and Alisa from Tekken are Bryan, Jack-X, Christie, and Lei.

The not-so-dirty dozen

PS Vita owners will be able to play and enjoy these 12 new characters as default choices upon purchase of the game thanks to an exclusivity deal arranged by Sony.

Following the release of Street Fighter X Tekken on the PS Vita in the fall, the dozen new characters will be made available for console and PC gamers as downloadable content.
