Capcom has been criticised for adding advertisements into Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition, but seems to have no plans to remove it.
The publisher added 'Sponsored Content' to the game in an update last week (http://www.capcom-unity.com/strumslinger/blog/2018/12/06/play-street-fighter-v-for-free-from-december-11-18-on-playstation-4-and-steam), which introduces advertising to various stages, character models and loading screens.
Currently, this is being used to "remind [players] about costumes, bundles and the Capcom Pro Tour" but some Street Fighter fans are concerned these spaces could be offered to external brands.
