Street Fighter II: The World Warrior[a] is a competitive fighting game developed by Capcom and originally released for arcade systems in 1991. It is the second installment in the Street Fighter series and the sequel to Street Fighter, released in 1987. It prominently features a popular two-player mode that obligates direct, human-to-human competitive play which prolonged the survival of the declining video game arcade business market itself by not only stimulating business but driving the genre of similar games.[7][8] Additionally, it inspired groups of competitive players to organize self-run tournament events, eventually culminating into EVO.[9][10]
Street Fighter II became the best-selling title since the golden age of arcade gaming. By 1994, the game had been played by over 25 million people in the United States alone at home and in arcades.
