Our Take On Street Fighter’s New Logo Design
It’s Bold And Modern, But Still True To The Brand
The classic franchise’s logo design consists of solid red and yellow, a color pattern that remains true in the movie logo. On the other hand, the movie features a hollow design with neon highlights, giving it a modern, underground vibe thatlooks very exciting while still paying homage to the original IP. There has been another attempt to adaptStreet Fighterin 1994, and the reception has been mixed, which makes now a perfect time for a great adaptation.
Known for directingBad TripandThe Eric Andre Show,with experience in advertising, Sakurai has a unique take on the franchise. The new logo honestly looks pretty good, and it appeals to both gamers and non-gamers whilestaying true to the brand without breaking it. Sakurai might just be what thelive-action video game adaptationslikeStreet Fighterneed to scale.
