Capcom announced the Street Fighter 6 release date during The Game Awards 2022, ahead of the fighting game’s second beta. Street Fighter 6 will launch on June 2, 2023, which was pretty much a given already, after the date leaked on the Sony PlayStation Store before the award ceremony began.
The latest entry in the long-running Street Fighter series will launch on PS4 and PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
The release date announcement comes ahead of the second Street Fighter 6 beta, which is set to run from Dec. 16, 2022, through Dec. 19, 2022. Capcom didn’t announce what features the beta will cover, but presumably, they may include modes that were barred in the first beta, such as campaign and certain arcade modes. The detailed character creator and its accompanying abominations will also make its return.
Check out the latest trailer and new additions to the roster below!
Applications for the beta are open now on Capcom’s website.
Capcom is offering three editions of Street Fighter 6: a standard, a deluxe, and an ultimate edition. The standard edition includes the game and a smattering of cosmetics. The deluxe edition adds the Year 1 Character Pass to expand its roster, and the ultimate edition comes with what looks like exactly the same thing. What makes it special isn’t quite clear just yet.
