	Game Companies Releasing Fighting Game Backgrounds for Video Calls & Virtual Meetings

  

In the wake of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, which is requiring many of us to work from home, several video game companies started a new Twitter trend by releasing free fighting game backgrounds to download. More specifically, these nostalgic (and beautiful) fighting game stages can be used as backgrounds for video chats and virtual meetings. Here's a look at official Twitter posts from Capcom, SNK, and Cygames who all participated in the trend. [UPDATE] Added Bandai Namco's Twitter posts featuring TEKKEN and SoulCalibur backgrounds.   For a more modern look, we also have some Street Fighter V backgrounds for you to rule the meeting! ???????? #SFVCE pic.twitter.com/VObmf9s2vU — Street Fighter (@StreetFighter) April 9, 2020   ??????????? \SNK???????????/ ???????????????????????????????????! ???????????????????? ?????????????! #StayHome #SNKE #SNK #KOF #????????? #???? pic.twitter.com/1tONlygG8T — SNK???????????
