Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams or Street Fighter Zero (ストリートファイター ゼロ Sutorīto Faitā Zero) in in Japan, Asia, South America and Spain, is the first completely new Street Fighter game created since Street Fighter II. The characters are drawn in an anime style, similar to Darkstalkers and X-Men: Children of the Atom, and were given a more youthful appearance. The Street Fighter Alpha series of games take place between the original Street Fighter and Street Fighter II, taking characters from both games as well as the Capcom beat-em-up, Final Fight. There were also many new additions to Street Fighter's existing gameplay as well as character interaction such as dialogs between characters and alternate prefight animations.

[edit] Story

Street Fighter Alpha details the events in between the first and second Street Fighter tournaments through the travels of thirteen warriors.

[edit] Gameplay

Street Fighter Alpha adds many new features to the fighting system, some of which were brought over from Capcom's successful Darkstalkers series. The Super Combo system introduced in Super Street Fighter II Turbo has been revamped by adding a three-level Super Combo gauge. The Super Combo gauge fills in as the player performs regular and special techniques. When the gauge reaches Level 1 or higher, the player can perform one of their character's Super Combo techniques. The number of punch or kick buttons pressed simultaneously when performing a Super Combo determines the amount that will be used. In addition to Super Combos, the player can also perform a special countering technique called an "Alpha Counter" (or "Zero Counter" in the Japanese version) when blocking an opponent's attack, which consumes a level of the Super Combo Gauge.

There are two playing styles that can be selected after choosing a character: "Normal" and "Auto". Auto differs from Normal in which the character will automatically guard against a limited number of attacks from their opponent (provided the character is not in the middle of perform an attack). Auto also allows the player to perform an instant Super Combo by pressing a punch and kick of the same strength simultaneously, but at expense of reducing the maximum level of the Super Combo gauge to one. Other new features include air blocking, counter attacks, chain combos, and taunts.
