Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue in which using Akuma’s Sekia Kuretsuha on the Ring of Galaxy stage would cause effects to not display correctly.

Battle Adjustments

Chun-Li

  • Fixed an issue in which a crouching medium punch, crouching medium kick, or crouching heavy kick could connect with certain high/mid-hitting attacks while Renkiko (V-Trigger I) is active.


Birdie

  • The adjustments made in version 06.001 caused the special version of M. Hanging Chain, which has slower start-up than the normal version, to be performed instead when canceling into the move from a standing medium punch.
  • This was not intended, so we’ve sped up the start-up of the special version of M. Hanging Chain when canceling into it from a standing medium punch.
  • Additionally, when cancelling into an M. Hanging Chain from a crouching medium punch, the special version will be performed which will hit multiple times.

R. Mika

  • Fixed an issue in which Rainbow Typhoon and Brimstone could be used in combos from any throw attack under certain conditions, even if the effects of Heated Mic Performance (V-Skill I) or Pumped Up (V-Skill II) had expired.

Zangief

  • Fixed an issue in which a standing heavy punch could not be canceled with any V-Trigger immediately after the opponent blocked the first active frame of the attack.
  • Fixed an issue in which Zangief would become temporarily invincible if the player canceled into Cossack Muscle (V-Trigger II) from certain attacks.

Laura

  • Fixed an issue in which Laura would become temporarily invincible when canceling Spark Show (V-Trigger I).
  • Fixed an issue in which Laura would exhibit strange behavior during the screen slow-down effect of a successful V-Shift performed at specific timing while performing the two follow-up attacks to Volty Sprink (V-Skill II).

Dhalsim

  • Fixed an issue in which Dhalsim would become temporarily invincible while staggering immediately after Alex’s Sledgehammer hits him.

F.A.N.G

  • Fixed an issue in which F.A.N.G would become temporarily invincible when canceling Koryo Dokuda (V-Trigger II).

Balrog

  • Fixed an issue in which Balrog would become temporarily invincible if the player canceled into Crazy Rush (V-Trigger I) or No Mercy (V-Trigger II) from certain attacks.

Blanka

  • Fixed an issue in which Blanka would move in a strange way with certain inputs when performing Rock Crusher.

G

  • Fixed an issue in which G would become temporarily invincible when canceling Maximum President (V-Trigger I) or Dangerous President (V-Trigger II).
  • Fixed an issue in which getting knocked down once would cause G to drop two levels under certain conditions.

Gill

  •  Extended the hitbox of Gill’s jumping heavy punch inwards to prevent the attack from missing certain characters.
  • Fixed an issue in which the entirety of Cryokinesis would behave differently if canceled into from crouching heavy punch or Cryo Rise Kick while Ice of Doom (V-Trigger II) is active.

Dan

  • Fixed an issue in which certain inputs would cause Dan to become temporarily invincible when activating Haoh Gadoken (V-Trigger I).
  • We have also made other minor fixes and improvements.

Update: Full notes are now live (above)

Capcom has yet to release the official patch notes for Street Fighter 5 update 3.08, but we know for certain from the Street Fighter 5 Winter Update stream that this update adds support for the newest fighter, Rose.

She isn’t the only thing dropping in this update either as it will also bring the new Marina of Fortune stage for players to battle on.

The update are pretty sizable, with the PS4 version being 28GB and the Steam being 18GB. Chances are there are plenty of other balances, gameplay changes, and bug fixes included in this update, though at the moment Capcom’s patch site is under maintenance. We will be sure to update this post once the official patch notes are live.

Is Street Fighter 5 (SFV) Server Down?

For those curious, Street Fighter 5 servers are also down at the moment due to a scheduled maintenance in preparation for today’s update. We will also update this post once wee have confirmation that they are live again.
