Street Fighter 6 Reviews
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.
With everything that Street Fighter 6 includes, it's set the bar incredibly high for future fighting games. Online matches played flawlessly during the review period. The Battle Hub is an example of how online multiplayer game lobbies should be with a space where players can interact and even play other games together. A well-balanced roster of characters and new control options helps Street Fighter 6 stand tall as an excellent entry point for fighting games, while also containing the depth and precise gameplay that pros expect.
With the three titans of the fighting game space all releasing mainline entries this year, competition is going to be stiff, but Capcom is putting its best foot forward. The publisher’s incredible run continues with one of the most feature-rich, stylish, and enjoyable entries in franchise history.
As a fighting game, Street Fighter 6 is pretty much flawless, but it’s the little details across the board that make it clear that this is a fighter for everyone and not just fans of the genre. A wild statement for a series that’s always felt more hardcore and impenetrable than the rest. Whether you’re a newcomer playing with Modern controls or a veteran with a fight stick and a vendetta, Street Fighter 6 feels like the most approachable and welcoming fighter I’ve ever played without ever once sacrificing its potential complexity and fighting spirit.
Street Fighter 6 brings back the franchise from the dead and puts it back on the throne where it belongs
Street Fighter 6 is an outstanding fighting experience that complements its stellar combat mechanics with addictive game modes. World Tour Mode is an absolute blast for those who want a story-driven experience, whilst the Battle Hub is fully fleshed out to keep competitive players coming back for years on end. Add to that the improved accessibility that makes it easy for newbies to dive right in, the wonderfully vibrant visuals that bring the action to life, and the fantastic roster of characters made up of iconic favourites and new faces, and it’ll be clear that Street Fighter 6 exceeds the high standards of the series. Well done, Capcom… you’ve delivered ANOTHER banger.
Street Fighter 6 came to be a definite turning point not just for the series, but for fighting games in general. Both the experience for those who want to enjoy it alone and for those who want to spend hours in network disputes leaves absolutely nothing to be desired, and that makes SF return to the level of excellence in the genre that it should never have failed to present.

Street Fighter 6 is further proof that Capcom knows what it's doing. This is an outstanding fighting game for both casual and competitive fighting game players. Even if the genre isn't usually your cup of tea, it won't hurt to give this game a try. Don't hesitate to get your hands on Street Fighter 6 if it piques your interest at all.
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 has completely reinvigorated my interest in the Street Fighter series and fighting games in general. I can easily see myself hitting 60 or 70 hours in the World Tour mode alone, and that's on top of already putting dozens of hours into Fighting Ground and Battle Hub. This is the most feature-complete fighting game I've ever played and sets a new high bar for Capcom's legendary series.
Street Fighter 6 takes the iconic franchise to new places, making it accessible to newcomers, while bringing the depth and fun for long time fans.
Street Fighter 6 is arguably the best title of this brilliant series, an absolute joy to play with via new control schemes and leaves one breathless in execution. This is a must have game for fans both old and new to the series, and a crowning achievement in the evolution of the PS5.
Street Fighter 6 is an incredible celebration of previous releases and a confident stride into the future. The new Drive System adds a multitude of layers to combat making fights the best they have ever been. Capcom’s new approach to single-player content with the World Tour is weird and wonderful even if it can get a little repetitive. The community-focused approach to online play is a step above its competitors and the amount of content is insane. Not only is Street Fighter 6 a worthy sequel, but it’s also the best fighter to date.
Not only does it restore faith from the fans, but there’s no doubt that Street Fighter 6 will be a significant factor as to why the fighting genre will most likely dominate the gaming world for the next few years or so. And obviously, there’s no surprise if it wins the Fighting game of the Year – despite Mortal Kombat 1 inevitably coming for that crown. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the series, from top to bottom, you are guaranteed the best experience from a Street Fighter game ever.
Between its cohesive aesthetic, the bounty of clever features, and crisp central gameplay, it’s one of the most impressive entries the genre has seen in some time.
Simply put, Street Fighter 6 is one of the very best entries in series history.
Street Fighter 6 is proof that we are facing the best Capcom of the decade. Shaping up as a before and after of the franchise, it is a game designed with obvious intentions to attract new people and, at the same time, preserve the incredible legacy that the veterans of the saga fell in love with in their day. It is the atonement for the ancient sins of a company that has known how to listen to its fans; it's a small step for Capcom, but a big step for the fighting game genre.

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.

Street Fighter 6 takes the series to the next stage with a wildly fun fighting system that emphasizes personal choice. Each mainline Street Fighter tends to define its era of fighting games in some way, and Street Fighter 6 confidently steps forward to that next era. From its battle system to its bevvy of modes such as World Tour, it dives deep into everything that makes fighting games great.
The keys to Street Fighter 6 are undoubtedly three: Spectacular, spacious and accessible. Its combat is a marvel of fun and the Battle Hub looks to have us hooked for a long time, but if you just want to try it, play with friends from time to time and pass the story to a single player, the World Tour mode and the Modern control will delight you. Few buts we can put to the one who, at the moment, is crowned as King of the Fight in this 2023 that seems like one of the most interesting of the genre for almost a decade. Let Mortal Kombat 1 and Tekken 8 hold on tight, because Street Fighter 6 is here to win.
