After the release of Street Fighter 3, Capcom had the idea of introducing Akuma's new super moves for future games in his endings:

• Akuma uses "Kongou Kokuretsuzan" in his Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact ending, becoming one of his Super Arts in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike.

• The technique "Tenshou Kaireki Jin" was first seen in Akuma's ending in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike. It was used to destroy the remains of a sunken liner ship that sat on the ocean floor. It would later became Akuma's second Ultra Combo in Super Street Fighter IV.

• Akuma was first seen using the "Sekia Kuretsuha" move in his Super Street Fighter IV ending. There, he destroyed a forest with it. That same technique became Akuma's first Critical Art in Street Fighter V.

During development, Lucio's ultimate originally slowed down time for a short duration, while Lucio himself stayed at normal speed. However, this also affected Lucio's teammates, and the ultimate was replaced to avoid potential frustration.

The collaboration between Square Enix and Platinum Games was agreed upon with the condition that Yoko Taro relocate from Tokyo to Osaka where Platinum Games was located. Although Taro was initially uneasy about the collaboration, the staff at Platinum Games had been wanting to work on a Nier game since its release, and their enthusiasm and wish to remain faithful to the original assuaged his doubts.

Dhalsim was never digitized into the game because of a number of issues. Along with concerns that the actor would not being able to perform the session, they believed that the players wouldn't like the idea of Dhalsim wearing the lab suit from the movie instead of his original design. Along with this there were worries that the actor wouldn't feel comfortable wearing that costume.
In the end, Dhalsim had a small role in the movie so they decided it would be acceptable to simply cut him from the final game.

This is the first Street Fighter game where Akuma is playable from the start instead of being a hidden character. However, Alan Noon has stated that he intended him to be a secret character, but a combination of events led to him being moved to the default roster.

The games developers were disappointed that Damian Chapa didn't resemble Ken, so they arranged a session in Chicago with an unknown individual playing Ken. According to Alan Noon; "he was a young guy barely out of high school I think, if at all, but he had martial arts training and most importantly: long blond hair. His costume was a red gi, though it did not feature the torn sleeves and pant legs. Instead, his long sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. The shoot went well, and we approached Capcom with the idea that we sub in second Ken for Damian Ken. Capcom ultimately decided that we had to go with Damian Ken however, and second Ken’s raw capture stayed on his CD. We were disappointed at the time, but looking back, Capcom made the right decision with Damian Ken in my opinion."

Benny Urquidez was intended to play a new character named Raven (whose moveset resembled that of Gen). According to Alan Noon (one of the game designers and artists for Street Fighter: The Movie for the arcades, as well as the live action performer of the game's Bison Troopers), Urquidez was chosen to take part in the game as Raven due the game's lead designer being a fan, as well as having extra time to put in another character. Urquidez performance as Raven was digitized, but the process went unfinished due to time constraints.

Incredible Technologies originally envisioned the game as Street Fighter III during early development. Planned characters included Retsu, Geki, and Lee from the first Street Fighter game, Gunloc from Slam Masters, and Mega Man, but they were scrapped early on when the team was informed the game was going to be based on the movie, and were never digitized.

In a interview with Niche Gamer, the development team said that the game’s premise of being able to “meet the common people going through the pains of a cyberpunk dystopia” was inspired by one of the sequences in Ghost in the Shell, the bar scene in Blade Runner, and the decayed state of Venezuela (the country in which they are based) at the time. They also confirmed that the visual design was inspired by anime such as Bubblegum Crisis.

The primary source of inspiration for McCree's gameplay was the Colt Python revolver from Valve's Half-Life series. The developers loved "how the revolver felt" and wanted to make a character that would give players the same feeling.

The game's art style was inspired by The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and Torchlight 2. The developers wanted an art style that was accessible but not too childish for a large audience. Finding the right art direction for the game had taken over a year.

Originally, there was going to be a group of characters representing the original Street Fighter. It consisted of Retsu (in what was meant to be his playable debut), Eagle (in his Capcom vs. SNK 2 incarnation), and a redesigned younger version of Sagat without the chest scar. Due to time constraints, all three were cut from the game
