Street Fighter X Tekken
SFXT Ibuki After Story
An example of an afterstory.
In Street Fighter X Tekken, all teams (as well as Akuma and Ogre individually) have endings that play as long as the team was selected. In Ogre or Akuma's case, if Akuma or Ogre are selected with a different character (IE Akuma with Zangief or Ogre with Jack-X) their own story will play and they will get a unique cutscene against the boss character of the other franchise. In the case both Akuma and Ogre are selected, the point (first) character takes precedence.
After an Arcade Mode, the point character of a team gets their own afterstory. A brief summary of what happened after they defeated their final enemy and went back to their normal lives.

Trivia
- The SFII games semi-retconned in the CPS1 to CPSII transition, such as Chun-Li having a second possible outcome, or the former bosses getting brand new individual introductions.
- Street Fighter Alpha 2 endings tend to retcon or completely contradict the previous game, meaning usually this game's events are the ones that are "canon".
- Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition doesn't show character endings when beaten on an easier difficulty. Rather it displays a generic screen[1] challenging the player to play on a higher difficulty.
