NetEnt unveils new branded online slot Street Fighter II: The World Warrior Slot

Based on the iconic 90s classic video game, Street Fighter II: The World Warrior is bound to be a smash hit in the online gambling community because it combines NetEnt excellence with an epic game narrative that has kept fans entertained for almost 30 years.

The slot features eight characters from the original game and mimics its game mechanics by letting the player choose a character and watch it battle against opponents until the reels decide which one is victorious. This creates an aura of authenticity for the game, which, as Bryan Upton, NetEnt’s Director of Games declares, was essential in the development process:

In developing Street Fighter II: The World Warrior Slot™ we felt a huge responsibility to ensure our slot game lived up to the iconic 90s original – a video game which has continued to entertain fans for almost 30 years. Authenticity was a critical factor to the design of this game, from the arcade-inspired art and sounds to the game mechanics, as well as the Beat the Bosses and Car Smashing bonus rounds. We designed the game to fuel players’ nostalgic competitiveness throughout the gameplay. 

Epic battles, nostalgia and huge prizes, oh my!

As we mentioned before, you as a player get to choose your champion, but the winning combinations you complete on the reels dictate your success by determining how much damage your character receives. Just like in a standard action video game, the battle ends once one of the opponents is out of health points.

Don’t worry, even if you lose, you can still win some cash in the Car Smash Bonus Game. As a winner, though, you get to trigger the multi-level Beat the Bosses Free Spins and engage in epic battles with four bosses from the original game. If you defeat them all, you’ll be crowned World Warrior Champion and awarded an extra prize.

Street Fighter II: The World Warrior is truly a unique slot game that represents a new take on a popular classic video game. By combining lucrative bonus features with authentic game mechanics from the original game, NetEnt’s newest slot manages to live up to the legacy of the Capcom™ classic video game.
