Capcom has announced that the second beta for Street Fighter V will take place from October 22nd until October 25th, and this time PC players will be able to get involved along with PS4 participants. However PC users will only gain access to the beta from Ocotber 24th. From that date and until the end of the beta Capcom will be opening up the cross platform multiplayer so PS4 players can compete against the PC group. With this there will be a cross platform leaderboard to show which players are the best regardless.

If you played the previous beta and had some strategies with the roster you’re going to have forget them, as this beta will have a new set of characters. Ken, Necalli, Vega and R. Mika will start things off, with Rashid joining on October 23rd and Karin completing the roster on October 24th. Fight Money will also be present so you can unlock things in the beta including the Kanzuki Estate stage, but this Fight Money will not carry over to the final beta or to Street Fighter V’s full release.

If you had access to the first beta then you will automatically have access to this one. If you didn’t and would like to have a chance at doing so then you have to follow the instructions for your region. All PC players who would like entry must pre-order Street Fighter V through Steam. PS4 owners in North and Latin America have to pre-order the game through either participating retailers or the PlayStation Store, and this will guarantee access.
