In any case, making SF6 a console exclusive would be all but a shot in the foot right at the beginning of this race, especially if other fighting titles allow connections across company lines.

We should mention, because it's in this same vein, 2013's Killer Instinct's status as an Xbox One exclusive is also often highlighted as the single biggest weight that held the revered title from reaching its full potential. While it's understandable why Capcom made this move, the era of console exclusivity appears to be rapidly evaporating as players from all over the gaming world have been demanding cross platform play for some time now. The PlayStation 4 wound up being fairly underwhelming hardware, however, and has proven to provide a significantly downgraded SF5 experience compared to what one can get on PC. The general understanding is that Capcom made this deal with Sony because they'd fallen on relatively hard financial times and a PS4 exclusive deal was the price of having a Street Fighter 5 at all. The game also made it to PC, but was conspicuously absent from Microsoft's Xbox One and Nintendo's Switch. Street Fighter 5 launched as a Sony exclusive ushering large swaths of franchise fans toward purchasing PlayStation 4s as their console of choice for last generation. We'll start simple with a box that may very well already be checked and say that crossplay across consoles and PC is a must. Especially for those of us who have been paying close attention to major game launches over the last few years, some of these may come across as no-brainers, but the only thing worse than having seen such missteps harm or ruin potential successes would be to see them do it a second time. To give some structure to this we specifically looked at launch failures (of which there are unfortunately plenty in Capcom's fighting game division) to guide us.
