Street Fighter V pulled from Steam, online disabled after PHP security flaw

rockpapershotgun.com —

Capcom has temporarily delisted Street Fighter V from Steam and disabled its online functions following last week's PHP security vulnerability, affecting the game's still-active playerbase. The shutdown stems from security concerns tied to the PHP programming language flaw, which prompted emergency maintenance across online services. Capcom confirmed sales suspensions on PlayStation Store and Steam until fixes are complete, though it did not specify the exact vulnerability. Players who already own Street Fighter V can still access offline modes like Arcade Mode, but ranked play and costume purchases are unavailable. The incident follows a separate Capcom ID data breach last week, though the company has not linked the two.
