Since 1987, Street Fighter has remained one of the most popular fighting game franchises in the industry. During that length of time, there have been numerous releases, with four main installments. While its style and high skill cap nature have been consistent over the years, one thing has always evolved dynamically: its character roster.
Speaking just about Street Fighter IV alone, there has been a significant infusion of characters during the past few years. Starting with 26 characters, it has added an additional 20 since its inception to create more options for players, and more dynamic competitive play. You might be able to master a character or two, but never all 46.
