Furthermore, a fan wanted to know the differences between the newly-available Mad Catz Ultra Street Fighter IV Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2 and the upcoming Mad Catz Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2. The company confirmed that, aside from artwork, the two arcade fighting sticks are the same:

The PlayStation 4 has already gotten several great fighters with Guilty Gear Xrd Sign, Injustice: Gods Among Us and Mortal Kombat X. The same system is also getting the above-mentioned Ultra Street Fighter IV along with Street Fighter V. If you are looking for an arcade stick to play these fighters, you should take a look at the Arcade FightStick Tournament Edition 2.
