Capcom has spilled the unsurprising beans about the follow-up/expansion to their awesome fighter and seeing as I’m pretty much settled on the fact that Street Fighter 4 is the runaway Game of the Year, color me pleased.

Apparently nine more fighters are en route, including old school pugilists T-Hawk (ugh) and Dee Jay.    Eight new characters in all are going to be added, the remainder shrouded in mystery (come on Frank West!)

In addition, existing characters will allegedly be tweaked and balanced (how about we bring Sagat down from Olympus?).  All of this will be coming on a less-than-full-retail disc some time next year.

How will Capcom improve on the greatest fighting game ever made?  We shall see.
