'''Super Street Fighter II Turbo''' (known in Japan as '''Super Street Fighter II X: Grand Master Challenge''', hereafter referred to as ''Super Turbo'' or ''SSF2T'') was the fifth and final updated arcade of the ''[[Street Fighter II]]'' games, following ''[[Super Street Fighter II]]'' (not counting the later ''[[Hyper Street Fighter II]]'').
In addition to speeding gameplay up substantially from the original ''Super'' (and providing the player with the option to choose the speed after selecting a character), there are two important changes to the game. The first is the introduction of Super Combos, a feature inspired by the Super Special Moves featured in other fighting games, and a mainstay in the ''Street Fighter'' since then. Super Combos are more powerful versions of Special Moves that are capable of devastating damage if they connect.

The other is the introduction of a mysterious secret character whose history is somehow linked to Ryu and Ken, with deadlier versions of the duo's signature special techniques. This mysterious secret challenger is known as Akuma, or Gouki (as he is named in Japan), the younger brother of Ryu and Ken's sensei Gouken. Akuma would also become a mainstay in the ''Street Fighter'' series.

This version of SF2 has seen several releases on many "next-generation" platforms, usually included in compilation titles that included this game with other Street Fighter games. It was one of the more popular and recognizable titles released for the [[3DO Interactive Multiplayer]] system and was also released for the [[PlayStation]] and [[Sega Saturn]] as part of the ''[[Street Fighter Collection]]''. It was also released for the [[Sega Dreamcast]] in Japan only (as '''Super Street Fighter II X for Matching Service''') for use with Capcom's online battle system known as Matching Service. A portable version was made with new backgrounds and endings with updated plot lines for the [[Game Boy Advance]] as ''[[Super Street Fighter II Turbo Revival]]''.

An exclusive [[Nintendo Switch]] remake called [[Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers]] was released, with [[Street Fighter II/Akuma|Akuma]] playable at the start with the secret character Shin Akuma and two new characters: [[Street Fighter II/Ryu|Evil Ryu]] and [[Street Fighter II/Ken|Violent Ken]].
The cast (aside from Akuma), story, controls, and rules for SSF2T are identical to the original ''Super'', which is itself built up from the original Street Fighter II.
