Street Fighter 6

Street Fighter 6 honestly feels like the best game of the series in every facet possible. The long term will prove or disprove this though as these games tend to morph and change over their lifetime. But for this game to take that title, it’s done everything right from the outset to cement its legacy as the best of the best. This game is a recommendation for people interested in fighting games at any level, go check it out now.

Capcom may have made significant mistakes in the development of Street Fighter V, but it’s clear they were determined not to repeat them with Street Fighter 6. I can’t remember the last time a fighting game offered such a complete package, with something for every type of player. Combine that with best-in-class mechanics and a visual identity that truly sets it apart, and Street Fighter 6 is everything fighting game fans have been dreaming of. There’s no need to put your quarter on the machine to save your spot anymore. With Street Fighter 6, we can all have next.

Capcom once again sets a new standard for 2D fighting games. In addition to the advanced combat system and the excellent package of single-player modes, made up of numerous elements that find their balance in sharing the same resource (the Drive indicator), SF6 counts on more than a vast group of tutorials and alternative control schemes for every need.

This is not only a kinetic, exciting and gloriously refined interpretation of the most storied fighting game series, but also the most generous and expansive offering yet. Here is a game that pays tearful tribute to its past, while determinedly seeking out a new and young audience - mindful, no doubt, that its future resides in their hands, be they practised or otherwise.

Street Fighter 6 comes out of its corner swinging and delivers a three-hit combo of modes that will leave fight fans floored.

For fans of the series, Street Fighter 6 is an insta-buy. It’s an easy recommendation for fighting game fans at large too.

Street Fighter 6 in it's simplest form remains a fantastic, fun experience, retaining the same gameplay that has been tweaked and improved throughout the years to ensure it remains top of the pile. Jarring attempts to meet the needs of young players alongside a World Tour mode that fails to meet the hype placed upon it however, stop this from being an essential purchase. Stick to Arcade Mode and enjoy what made this franchise so great in the first place. A fantastic fighter is there, just buried under the fluff.

Street Fighter 6 is easily one of the best fighting games I've ever played — and probably the most complete game in the franchise. First, an important note: I don't play online. So this review is based entirely on the single-player experience: Arcade, Fighting Ground, and especially World Tour. And honestly, it's hard not to be impressed by what Capcom delivered. Street Fighter has always been about the fights, but Street Fighter 6 managed to make the franchise feel like something much bigger. The biggest reason for that is World **** me, World Tour is revolutionary for the franchise and the best addition Street Fighter has ever received outside of the traditional Arcade mode. Creating your own character, exploring Metro City, traveling to different locations, meeting the classic fighters, training with them, learning their moves, and building your own fighting style is an incredible idea. It's basically Street Fighter mixed with an RPG and exploration, while still feeling completely like Street Fighter. What makes it even better is how it lets you experience the characters in a completely different way. Meeting Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Guile, Blanka, Dhalsim, E. Honda, and so many others, talking to them and learning from them makes these characters feel like much more than names on a character-select screen. And speaking of the roster: what an incredible cast. Ryu feels more mature, Chun-Li is fantastic, Ken has one of the most interesting changes in the franchise, Guile still feels like he walked straight out of a '90s action movie, Cammy is excellent, and Zangief is simply **** new characters also deserve a lot of credit. Luke, Jamie, Kimberly, Manon, Marisa, JP, Lily, Dee Jay, and the others all have their own identity, personality, and fighting style. Even characters I wasn't particularly interested in at first ended up winning me over. That's one of Street Fighter 6's greatest strengths: it genuinely feels like a celebration of the franchise's history. The visuals are fantastic as well. The art style may not be for everyone, but I think Capcom nailed it. The characters are expressive, the animations are great, the stages are full of detail, and the game has a strong visual identity of its own. Metro City is also a great fit for World Tour. You can walk around, meet NPCs, discover shops, play minigames, fight random enemies, and find all kinds of references to the series. There are moments when you completely forget you're playing a fighting game. You're playing an RPG. The character creator deserves special mention too. The amount of customization is ridiculous, and your character actually becomes a combination of different fighting styles by learning moves from various masters. It's a strange idea on paper, but it works incredibly well. Arcade mode is also exactly what I want from a fighting game: individual character stories, illustrations, and extra details that expand the universe. Of course, it's not perfect. The World Tour story could have been better. Sometimes it feels more like an excuse to move your character around the map and introduce the different masters. Some classic characters could also have played a bigger role. And, as a longtime fan, I have to ask: Where are Sean, Makoto, and Ibuki? They're some of my favorite characters, and I really missed them. The roster is already fantastic, but having those three would have made it even better. Still, it's difficult to complain when almost everything else is this good. For someone like me who prefers playing solo, Street Fighter 6 is an incredibly complete package. World Tour alone is one of the most creative additions the franchise has ever received, and probably the best attempt they've made to turn Street Fighter into something more than just a fighting game. Street Fighter 6 didn't just reinvent the way you play Street Fighter. It expanded what Street Fighter can be. Considering the single-player experience alone, this game comes incredibly close to perfection. 9.5/10.

It’s a great and unique street fighter game the single player part of the game is the best part of the game and hopefully they continue making a single player campaign for years to come. The worst part of it is all the pay walls they make you get. You can rent a character but then have to purchase them if you want to continue playing as them or if you want the entire roster you have to pay extra. It’s a shame but if you just like Ryu or the basic characters your all good and don’t need to worry about the paywalls.

This is not a bad game. I just never got around to liking the fighting. Just not my type of fighting game.

Season three and they still haven't removed the Throw Loopz. An excellent game if you are approaching Fighting Games for the first time, but unfortunately it is full of scrubby mechanics deliberately designed to help casuals to steal some matches. This wouldn't be a bad thing in itself but the way the Drive System has been implemented makes the game volatile and **** the last time, remove the throw loops. You had already done it in SFV but with that game you had to win back the public, unfortunately here the sales are high and the casuals are happy to steal rounds from time to time by guessing out the opponent

Ok game, but relies so much on guess mechanics. Too many battle changes and lack of costumes. relies so much on avatar micro transactions.
