We knew they were coming, we just didn’t know when. Well, thanks to an announcement from the EVO Fighting Championship, Street Fighter X Tekken fans know exactly when they will be getting a big dose of additional characters for the game. Capcom has announced a release date for the 12-character DLC for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game. Originally, we were told that the pack would be available after the game launched on the Vita this Fall, but now we know it is coming later this month.

The pack goes on sale on July 31, 2012 and will sell for $19.99 / 1600 Microsoft points respectively. In addition to featuring a patch which will adjust a couple of gameplay elements, it will add 12 completely new characters to the game; this includes 6 from each side of the playing field. On the Capcom side of things, we will be seeing Blanka, Sakura, Guy, Cody, Dudley, and Elena. The Tekken camp will be bringing Jack, Brian Fury, Alisa, Lars, Lei, and Christie.
