Welcome to the Rollback: a frame-by-frame look back at our past week’s most notable news — and our favorite SRK articles — from March 16 to March 22, 2018!

Zavian “mushin_Z” Sildra, Editor-in-Chief:

Frame 1:

Capcom Pro Tour 2018 Premier Pass announced; New “Ring of Power” stage and costumes for Akuma & Sakura revealed

Another year, another CPT pass; the Ring of Power looks really good. And Akuma has turned out to be a pretty snappy dresser.

Frame 2:

Legends become real when Broly and Bardock drop into Dragon Ball FighterZ on March 28

DBFZ is set to start dropping the DLC, and anticipation is at high power levels… you know how high.

Frame 3:

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection launches May 29, 2018; Digital pre-orders include a copy of Ultra Street Fighter IV

We now have a set release date for this classics compilation; recent footage seems to indicate that this will be a worthy collection, and the pre-order bonus of Ultra Street Fighter IV is a great addition.

Frame 4:

Tekken 7 Noctis Lucis Caelum roundup: Day one combos, Roll-Dodge okizeme, and more from the Prince of Punishment

Now that this left-field crossover character has officially arrived, get your own studying and practice started with these tech videos.

Frame 5:

Dissidia Final Fantasy NT’s version 1.06 patch brings a new stage, move lists, and a host of balance changes

Orbonne Monastery has arrived! And the fairly extensive balance changes may indicate that Square Enix is indeed as serious about competitive support for Dissidia as they have claimed.

Frame 1:

The mysterious (and fiery) Najd revealed for The King of Fighters XIV

Not only is Najd a great design, but its really fantastic of SNK to run a contest to make a fan character come to life. I wish more companies took risks like this.

Frame 2:

BornFree talks to MenaRD about Street Fighter V stardom, hard work, and how victory at Capcom Cup 2017 changed his life

I personally find MenaRD’s story inspiring. This puts me in the minority, judging by the divisive way he’s been received.

Frame 3:

West City Weekly analyzes Sonic Fox v. GO1’s exhibition and Final Round 2018 grand finals matches

Mark my words — this rivalry is only just beginning.

Frame 4:

Yakuza series Producer Daisuke Sato says it’s up to Harada if fans want to see Kazuma Kiryu in Tekken 7

It is absurd to me that Sato-san would even talk about this if it weren’t already being discussed behind-the-scenes. I have to think we’ll see Kiryu in Season 2.

Frame 5:

Indie shooter/fighter hybrid Gravity Breakers updates prototype to version 0.2.2, tweaks input system and graphics

I honestly think Gravity Breakers is one of the most ambitious indie fighters I’ve seenin a while, and I’m really excited to watch it grow.
