Video game publisher Capcom has announced that it plans to launch the PC version of Street Fighter x Tekken on May 8 in North America and three days later in Europe, roughly two months after the game is set to arrive on the Xbox 360 from Microsoft and the PlayStation 3 from Sony.

Capcom is also working on the PlayStation Vita handheld version of the fighting game but the company is not ready to talk about a launch window, saying just that it will offer more information in the coming weeks.

The video game company also confirmed that Akuma, Jin Kazama, M. Bison and Ogre would complete the cast of the game, something that the fan base widely expected.

Street Fighter x Tekken will offer players a choice of more than 40 characters to take into fights.

Namco Bandai is now working on Tekken x Street Fighter, which will use the same universe of characters but a completely new set of mechanics, with the launch expected in 2013.
