The free "Championship Mode" update Capcom has been promising for Street Fighter 4 isn't far off. The publisher announced today the patch arrives on April 24 on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
Championship Mode brings a number of new features for online players, including the introduction of five levels of tournaments. Participating (and winning) in these tournaments will earn gamers "Grade Points." Earn more Grade Points and you'll be granted the opportunity to enter even more exclusive tournaments.
There's more, too. Actually winning a tournament earns a separate kind of points: "Championship Points." Capcom says Championship Points are the equivalent of prize money in the Street Fighter 4 universe, and the higher the Grade Points of players in any individual tournament will increase the Championship Point payout.
Replays are also coming to Street Fighter 4, but their functionality is different, depending on which machine you're playing on. On PlayStation Network, you can rate matches and attach different LittleBigPlanet-esque "tags" to them. On Xbox Live, however, you cannot rate the matches but you can download replays and view the specific stick motions and button presses that were entered during the match in real-time.--
