The Capcom representative explains that there partnership with Sony doesn't allow them to release a version for the Xbox One.

"One comment we see a lot is that something like a Super Street Fighter 5 is going to come out on Xbox," said the representative. "But the reality is that this is a real partnership. We are console exclusive for this franchise for this numbered run."

"We're not talking about how we're handling post-launch content, but I can say the relationship with Sony does open doors for things we haven't been able to do in the past."

"The relationship serves a gameplay and development purpose, and not just a marketing value."

Xbox Games executive Phil Spencer was previously quoted responding to the news of 'Street Fighter 5' being released as a Playstation exclusive.

"Business deals happen," he said. "We won't do all of them. When we have a first party franchise in a genre I'd rather invest in ours."

"There is a mix of deals to do. But making sure we own IP [that] Xbox gamers love is critical [in my opinion]."

"I'd love it if Xbox fans could play all the games, but business just makes some deals happen. It's all part of competition." 'Street Fighter 5' plans to arrive in Q4 of 2016.
