Capcom just gave retro fighting game fans a big reason to celebrate at EVO 2025. The company revealed that Capcom Fighting Collection 2 is getting a free update on August 7, 2025, packed with fan-favorite additions. Street Fighter Alpha 3 UPPER will finally welcome Maki, Yun, Eagle, and Ingrid—rounding out the roster and bringing it closer to the classic arcade experience.
But that’s not all. The update also adds quality-of-life tweaks, brand-new artwork, and remix tracks from Cap-JAMS to crank up the nostalgia. With full online play and rollback netcode across the board, the collection brings back not just Alpha 3, but heavy hitters like Capcom vs. SNK 1 & 2, Project Justice, Power Stone 1 & 2, Plasma Sword, and Capcom Fighting Evolution.
Capcom’s clearly on a mission to make this the ultimate retro brawler pack—especially with Switch 2 support now live and the Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection launching alongside it. Ingrid also just got confirmed for Street Fighter 6Year 3 DLC, giving her a well-deserved spotlight across both old-school and current titles.
This EVO-timed update feels like perfect fan service, giving longtime players the polish and extras they’ve been asking for. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or just feeling nostalgic, there’s never been a better time to throw down.
