Street Fighter EX
In 1996, Capcom co-produced a 3D fighting game "Street Fighter EX" with Arika, a company founded by "Street Fighter II" planner Akira Nishitani. It was developed for the PlayStation-based ZN-1 hardware. "EX" combined the established "Street Fighter" cast with original characters created and owned by Arika. It was followed by an upgraded version, "Street Fighter EX Plus," in 1997, which expanded the character roster. A home version with additional features and characters, "Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha", was released for the PlayStation during the same year.
