All those extra characters included in the PlayStation Vita version of Street Fighter X Tekken will be hitting consoles way ahead of their originally planned post-portable release window, and in fact ahead of the Vita version all together, on July 31.

The $19.99/1600 MS Point DLC pack will add 12 new characters to fray, bringing the game's roster to an even 50 fighters. The new Street Fighter characters include series mainstay Blanka, Final Fight converts Cody and Guy, Third Strike alumni Dudley and Elena, and Alpha 2 favorite Sakura Kasugano.

Bolstering Tekken's numbers are Alisa Bosconovitch, Bryan Fury, Christie Monteiro, Jack-X, Lars Alexandersson and Lei Wulong. Twelve brand-new characters may sound like a lot to download all at once, but the process should actually be surprisingly quick.
