The first Capcom Arcade Stadium launched last year, with a collection of various arcade classics. Of course, Street Fighter II was in the mix, as was Bionic Commando and Ghouls ‘n Ghosts. There were also games like Cave’s Progear and some obscure pick-ups, like Cyberbots: Full Metal Madness.

A big deal here is probably Three Wonders, which is a bonus for those who pick up the Fighting Collection as well. The three-in-one CPS-1 has, as the name would imply, three titles in it. Bit of a bummer that it seems꧒ to require a double-dip, but💙 a neat cut of Capcom history nonetheless.
The only other confirmed addition is SonSon, a free download. Obviously there’s a bit more that Capcom could delve into, which it says it will do “soon.”
Capcom also put out a for another classics collection today. The Fighting Collection has its pre-orders live no🌟w, and also comes with its own lineup of pre-order bonuses, ▨including some music remixes and illustrations.
The Capcom Fighting Collection brings together some classic and sometimes overlooked parts of Capcom’s fighting game catalog. It has Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors and multiple Vampire Savior games, as well as the aforementioned Cyberbots and Red Earth too.
When we checked out the first Arcade Stadium, it sounded like it was a mostly solid collection of Capcom classics, though it was also what you’d expect. For those who really want to dig deeper into the arcade archives, hopefully CAS2 brings even deeper cuts. We’ll learn more as Capcom puts out more info about the retro recollection.
Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium is currently set for PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One,🎃 and Nintendo Switch.
