Do You Think There Will Be a Sale...

[Shadow The Innkeep]

... for the game's upcoming anniversary? I wanna get it, but I would hate to buy it now and then see it go down on sale a couple of weeks later or so.

Also, if I decide to buy the game, should I get regular version or one of those deluxe upgrades? I'm totally new to FGs, btw, never played one before.

Not sure, but they always have Street Fighter and other fighting games on sale during EVO which is coming up on July

oh cool, thanks! I hope they do anniversary sale, I really wanna try world tour. Demo looks like it's a ton of fun

There's always the Steam summer sale in July so you won't have to wait long if they decide to not do an anniversary sale.

I might buy it full price by then. I just don’t wanna buy it full price now just to see it go on sale one June 2nd

Are deluxe/ult versions of the game worth it?

If you like the characters that come with it I guess, that's the only thing you'd be missing out on

[Peddie]

You can of course buy individual characters separately using Capcom's funbucks system. And if you play during a battle pass you're almost guaranteed to get some rental tickets with which you can try out a DLC character before committing the money to them.
(And you can always buy the season pass later after trying out the base game for a bit)

Which way is cheaper getting extra characters - funbucks or just buying deluxe or ult editions?

[Peddie]

Well you can upgrade to deluxe after buying the base game, they're called the year 1 character pass and ultimate pass respectively. But in general the pass is always cheaper than buying the four separately, but if you want to buy just one or two, getting them separately is the way to go.

Just to note, Capcom doesn't seem to offer discount of DLCs after the first purchase.

Membership is for people who want to collect games, not play them.

I'm hoping they do a sale for the year 1 pass when Akuma drops to encourage people to but it instead of buying just Akuma

The next upcoming Steam sale is in 42 days.
