Virgin Gaming partners with Capcom Pro Tour for Street Fighter Online series

Virgin Gaming has partnered with the Capcom Pro Tour to offer the Street Fighter Online Series, for players in North America, South America and Europe.

Starting April 8, players will be able to participate in regional online tournaments, with the top 16 competitors from each region awarded points counting toward the overall Capcom Pro Tour standings.

Virgin Gaming will host the Street Fighter Online Series to help Street Fighter 4 competitors qualify for the Capcom Cup, who aren’t able to attend the live events.

The Capcom Pro Tour grand finals will be held at the Capcom Cup this December, and the tour will focus solely on Street Fighter 4 series, with the early portion of the tour featuring Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition, then transitioning to Ultra Street Fighter 4 after it releases in June.

Fans and players can glean more information through the official Virgin Gaming Capcom Pro Tour website as well as through the official Capcom Pro Tour website
