| − | ==Development== |
||
| − | Both Ansah and Howard spent the last three years prior to the series' debut writing, beginning with a script treatment for the "World Warrior" storyline around ''Street Fighter II'', which would span a prologue series and then a feature film finale. After the success of ''Street Fighter: Legacy'', the two decided that they would put the "World Warrior" scripts on the shelf, to be used down the line as a bigger-budget sequel, and instead work on the origin story of the Ansatsuken characters: Ryu, Ken, Gouken, Gouki/Akuma and Goutetsu. The resulting work is a Japanese-centric storyline, a warrior's tale and a coming of age story for Ryu and Ken as boys become men, told in parallel with the dark tale of the generation that came before them, filled with tragedy, loss and heartbreak. |
||
| − | |||
| − | This story really contains all the elements of universal, classic, conflict-based storytelling: father vs. son, brother vs. brother, a love triangle, betrayal, revenge, and the ultimate question: "Can a man change his destiny? Or will the inevitable catch up with him?". |
||

| − | ==Production== |
||
| − | After the short film, ''[[Street Fighter: Legacy]]'', was released on YouTube in 2010 as a proof-of-concept. During San Diego Comic-Con International 2012 [[Capcom]] announced it had granted rights to the creators to go ahead with the project.<ref>[http://www.joystiq.com/2012/07/13/third-times-the-charm-live-action-street-fighter-assassins-f/ Third time's the charm: Live-action Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist series announced]</ref> |

| − | On August 20, 2013, in an interview with Game Reactor, Ansah talked about Ryu and Ken's story and said "a good analogy with Ryu is that he's not actually ever competing with anyone else; he's competing with himself to Ken is driven fiercely by competition. A lot of Ken's conflict comes from his relationship with his father. Without giving too much away, we learn in this series how Ken came to be in Japan, in Gouken's dojo".<ref>[http://www.gamereactor.eu/articles/87514/Street+Fighter:+Assassin%27s+Fist+Interview/ Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist Interview - Gamereactor UK]</ref> On November 1, 2013, Content has sold worldwide online rights for ''Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist'' to a major global online channel for a short first window.
