The value story

The value story

June 2022 is where it bottomed out, at $4.99. It has been discounted 58 times in the 11 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 60 percent, about 6 weeks apart.

It is pricier than 94 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 79 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Killer Instinct (free, scores 65) and Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition ($19.99, scores 52) both outscore it.

More about Street Fighter V

The press liked it more than its buyers did, 89 against 68 percent.

Steam's global achievement data puts under 1 percent of players at this game's ending achievement. On a 3.4-hour game, the hours short of it still count in its price per hour. Players rate it 68 percent positive over its lifetime, but the last 30 days run 57 percent. Something recent has soured the room. This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 22 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written May 2023 to October 2026. That is more refunded reviewers than 8 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 2,368 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 424 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 41 percent of the 2,490 reviews written there were positive, against 68 percent overall, and those are 9 percent of everything written about it. It carries the aggressive kind of in-app purchases, and the score already docks it for that. The sticker price is where the spending starts.

The main story runs 3.4 hours. Doing everything runs 137, 40 times as long.
