Changes were made to the air combo system and the button configuration was trimmed down to 4 main buttons and 2 assist buttons. With the final installment of the series, Capcom simplified the engine so that it would be more accessible to casual players, in order to bring in new players, as interest in arcade fighting games had declined. A demo was released exclusively on PlayStation Network on April 30, 2009. It is also slated to be released as a downloadable title on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 this summer. Capcom 2 was later ported to the Sega Dreamcast, Xbox, and PlayStation 2.
It is the only game in the series to use the NAOMI system, an arcade version of the Sega Dreamcast hardware. The game features 3 on 3 tag, compared to the 2 on 2 tag from previous games in the series.
