- —Synpnosis from the game's official website
After Shadaloo sends out an army of mechanized Seth clones, the World Warriors are called in to take action and defend the streets, defeating all of the clones in the process. Soon, after M. Bison's arrival, he challenges the fighters, including Ryu, who fights Bison back with several hard-hitting punches, but soon disappears from existence. Taking his friend's red headband, Ken must now go on a journey to find Ryu, and also recruit several other fighters to form a team in order to take down Seth and destroy the Shadaloo organization for good.
Gameplay[]
In the game, players form a team of three fighters to face off against various other teams and opponents. The enemies range from other fighters, to cyborgs, to street thugs, to Shadaloo agents and soldiers. The game also has a 3 vs. 3 "real-time" system mechanic. Similar to The King of Fighters '98 Ultimate Match Online, Street Fighter: Duel includes a single-player story mode with plenty of dialogue cutscenes that advance the plot, unlockable character cards, hard-hitting team combos, Killer Moves that have quick-time elements (which involve pressing the on-screen buttons with precise timing to defeat opponents, or to fill up a meter below the screen) and a level-up system for each fighter as the player progresses through the main game, among other features. The game will have more than 30+ stages, consisting of stages from previous Street Fighter games, as well as all-new ones made for this title. After downloading the game the first time, the player will need to have to register and have an account created first, before choosing either Ken or Ryu as their first crew member. After that, the player has to go through several Tutorial battles with their chosen character.
More than 40+ characters are playable in Street Fighter: Duel. Each one has their own character cards that must be unlocked, as well as their own set of attacks, special moves, Super Combos, and Ultra Combos. The V-Gauge and Super Gauges are also present, Stuns now serve as a status effect, and Personal Actions (or Taunts) will also be returning for characters to use during battle. There are also some new features added through updates, such as Ultra Skills. Characters will also be able to ride on vehicles in the game, and certain characters have alternate Variant Fighter versions of themselves (called Skins in the game) that can be unlocked.

Trivia[]
- The game's early promotional artwork is based on, and inspired by Persona 5's title screen.
- This game's Killer Moves are inspired by the Reality Shift segments in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance and it's HD port. Also, during these quick-time events, the sequences are progressed as comic-book panels.

- Most of the game's promotional artwork is drawn by Xin Wang.
- This game's music is heavily inspired by Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter V, with an original theme song titled "Time to Fight", and five original battle BGM tracks for the game composed by Yoko Shimomura; "King of the Streets", "Shadaloo Campaign", "Dojo Training", "100-Year Mystery" and "Battleground". These battle themes can be changed in the in-game settings.
- For some reason, Yoko Shimomura's name is credited as Shimomura Yoko.
- In some places (such as when viewing stages on the overworld Map), the characters are in a super-deformed art style, similar to Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, it's mobile reboot, as well as Super Gem Fighter: Mini Mix.
- Like in recent games from Street Fighter IV onwards, Street Fighter: Duel has both English and Japanese voice-acting that can be changed in the in-game settings.
