Capcom Cup will be making the transition from console to computer for its setups next month.
Head to any offline fighting game tournament and, for the most part, you'll find yourself playing on a console. PlayStations have been the platform of choice for a hot sec, with games like Street Fighter 5, Tekken 7 and Dragon Ball FighterZ usually running sets on a PlayStation 4 or PlayStation 5. But Capcom's changing things up for its upcoming Capcom Cup.
The publisher has announced that it'll be switching to PC setups for its week-long tournament in February, as reported by. It's being done in an effort to combat input lag, something which has been a longstanding issue for the PlayStation version of Street Fighter 5. Despite the game being locked to 60fps, it still has a lower input lag on PC which is further aided by running it on a 144Hz monitor.
It's still hard to deny the benefits of switching these tournaments to PC—it works to players' favour with more accurate response times and less input lag. But when it comes down to an offline event, consistency is key. Every installed driver must be the same across every identical rig, giving everyone the same fair chance.
Cost has long been a barrier or a justification for not making the switch, too. But with PS5s becoming harder to get a hold of, and the price between a PS5 and suitable gaming laptop becoming ever closer, now's a better time than ever for majors to start moving over.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
