It’s been a little while since the last Street Fighter V beta concluded on PS4 after serious connectivity issues delayed it. Now the next round (bet I’m the first one to think that hilarious joke up) is ready to begin and this time both platforms will get to be involved. Instead, players will be able to pick Ken, Necalli, Vega and R. Mika from day one, with Rashid to be added on October 23 and Karin on October 24. The beta is planned to go from October 22nd through the 25th.

In the first Street Fighter 5 beta test, players were able to rake in Fight Money, but were unable to spend it on anything.
Capcom has revealed the dates for the next phase of beta testing for Street Fighter V.
This second beta will have Ranked Matchmaking, Combined Leaderboards (PS4 & PC), and Player Search. PC users can gain access by pre-ordering Street Fighter 5 on Steam. Unfortunately, characters from the previous beta (Ryu, Chun-Li, Cammy, Birdie, Nash, and M. Bison) will not be playable.
Interested in seeing what strategies the top players on the leaderboard are employing? If you’re curious about participating in the beta, then head here for more information. This is the flawless time to show everyone (PC and PS4 users) that you’re the best around as your name shines brightly above the others. Players will also finally be able to use Fight Money to unlock items, such as titles and “maybe even the Kanzuki Estate stage”, Capcom teased. Once you get your beta key, you can input it immediately into PSN to download the Street Fighter V Beta client.
Here in North America, those who participated in the first beta test will automatically have access to beta #2 without the need to re-register.
