Capcom is planning to release a free '2012 Edition' balance patch for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition, following complaints from the community that the new version throws some characters out-of-whack. Producer Yoshinori Ono made the announcement at the Evo 2011 tournament this weekend. Location testing will be held in Japanese arcades later this summer.
Eurogamer reports that Ono didn't mention specific plans for balancing. However, the competitive Street Fighter tourney community on Shoryuken.com has its own hopes -- ranging from buffs for characters like Rose and Cammy to various calls to bring back certain characters' moves.
