It has been over a month since launch and most of the player base continues to have a wonderful time, myself included. The game contains a huge factor of fun amplified by its new, modern take on hip-hop style. The music and redesign of characters echo the nature of the fighting game community (FGC) and the spirit found in tournaments whether local or professional. The FGC is a niche group. However, one that relies on the heart and the camaraderie of a chosen family. If you are looking to join that family, Street Fighter 6 is a great point of entry.

Overall, Street Fighter 6 is a triumphant return for Capcom. Coming from the lackluster showing of Street Fighter 5, this latest installment ticks all of the right boxes and then some. There are a ton of modes for players to sink hours into, and with the inclusion of rollback netcode, online matches are pure bliss. While the addition of “easier” control schemes may be a controversial decision, this gives budding world warriors the chance to jump in and quickly be competitive right off the bat. Higher levels of play will want to stick to the classic controls for full access to any and all moves, but it is always nice to have a choice.

Despite not being the biggest fan of the Street Fighter series, I can see great potential in this game and it's not thanks to its graphics or character design as it has always done an excellent job in these aspects. The real highlight is undoubtedly its innovative and unique combat, its' controls that allows any player to enjoy the game, whether experienced or not, and last but not least the story mode. There are countless cases of combat games that try to make a story mode of this qualitu and never succeed. Street Fighter 6 is without a doubt a must-have game for fans of the series, as well as fans of fighting games in general. Perhaps one of the best in recent years.

Street Fighter 6 is an attempt of fixing the mistakes Capcom made with SFV. The game definitely took the criticisms to heart and shipped the sequel not only in a better state but also with a ton of content made for newcomers and veterans alike.

Street Fighter 6 delivers some tight, fun gameplay with gorgeous visuals and a litany of content for longtime fans. The game is far from perfect with a half baked World Tour mode that feels more like a “work-in-progress” than a fully realised new path for the iconic series. Whether you are a lapsed fan (like me), brand new to the series or a die-hard savant, then the excellent arcade mode. Some great character designs and responsive controls make this a strong entry in the beloved Street Fighter franchise.

Street Fighter 6 has made me the happiest I’ve been with a game in quite some time. As somebody who always wanted to play fighting games but whose neurodivergence prevented them, the new Modern controls and consistent approachability is simply joyous. Brimming with personality, immensely gratifying, and packed with a shocking amount of content, I’m still rather shocked by exactly how hooked I’ve become. It’s just a shame Capcom’s insistence on pernicious monetization lets the welcoming effort down, because besides that I have no notes. Street Fighter 6 is the fighting game I needed.

Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success. The team at Capcom managed to give newcomers smooth transition into the game with new modern control scheme and big story mode, while also not loosing the gameplay depth this series is known for.

SFVI’s launch marks an impressive effort by Capcom, having learned from previous failings and while the lackluster World Tour mode and gross battle pass stains an otherwise spotless package, it still shines brightly as the new standard for fighters to come.

All in all, Street Fighter 6 is one of the best games in the series, in my opinion. The World Tour alone is one of the reasons to buy the game. These days, it's not uncommon for titles to be supplemented by downloadable content. In this case, everything is included from the outset, and that's just as well! It's more than complete, and you'll have hours of fun fighting and progressing in this new opus from Capcom. It's sure to please regulars and casual gamers alike. For all these reasons, I recommend that you buy it, even at full price.

Street Fighter 6 introduces a versatile fighting game system that brilliantly refines mechanics introduced in previous iterations. With its innovative story mode and modern control options, it stands out from its predecessors as the most accessible Street Fighter game ever made. Add in its unique style and solid online gameplay options, and Street Fighter 6 shines bright for the series while setting the bar high for future fighting games.

The three pillars of Street Fighter 6 are accessibility, online features and a huge amount of content at the time of release. If you are a fighting fan, you are in for a treat this year as we still have Mortal Kombat 1 and possibly Tekken 8 to look forward to, although it would be extremely difficult for the other two to stand up to SF6.

Street Fighter 6 is a big improvement for the franchise, and a reminder that Capcom is the best in the genre. The gameplay is as crisp and engaging as it has ever been, and the amount of modes included in the game will keep players busy for quite some time.

Street Fighter 6 is a masterclass in the fighting game genre, with exciting new mechanics and characters that make the fights even more fun, even though the story mode drags a bit too much in the later half, hurting an otherwise great addition to the series.

A large-scale and insanely engaging fighting game with high production values, especially compared to the release version of Street Fighter V. It's able to please both longtime fans of this franchise and newcomers unfamiliar with the genre. If you have long waited to join a huge crowd of Street Fighter fans, but didn't know how to approach it, now is the best time to do it.
