While the original PlayStation 2 version of Capcom vs. SNK 2 found its way to the Japanese PlayStation Network in September of last year, little concrete information has ever surfaced for the promised North American release. Thankfully, those outside of Japan will only have to wait a few more days, according to PSN Stores. This classic fighting title will be available on PlayStation Network in North America next Tuesday, July 16. This news comes courtesy of this week’s installment of the Official PlayStation Blogcast.

Being a PlayStation 2 Classic, this release will offer only what was available in the original release. This means no netplay through PlayStation Network, trophy support, remastered graphics, or any other bells and whistles players have become accustomed to with modern-day releases. Still, if you’re looking for a quick Capcom vs. SNK 2 fix and don’t have an old copy of the game lying around, this should be right up your alley.
