Capcom has finally confirmed that Street Fighter 6 will launch on June 2 following a ton of rumors and even a leak through the PlayStation Store.
Announced at The Game Awards 2022, a new trailer showed off some minigames and four characters: the brand new Manon, Marisa, and JP, and the returning Dee Jay.
The PlayStation Store leaked the release date just a day ahead of its official reveal, following in the footsteps of Steam after it accidentally leaked Star Wars Jedi: Survivor’s release date.
Street Fighter 6 was announced back in February, with new bits of information being released slowly but surely since. A gameplay trailer showed Chun-Li and Ryu in action alongside newcomer Luke, and Capcom later showed a way to mentally battle your opponents before the match.
Jamie and Guile were also confirmed to feature, and at EVO 2022 Capcom announced the return of Juri and first appearance of Kimberly, who comes with a moveset focused on fast-paced jabs and aerial kicks.
Players had a chance to try the game in its first closed beta, and its second is just around the corner on December 16. Spots are fairly hard to secure, however, as Capcom is awarding them through a random draw.
IGN said its Beta Test 1 was the “best fighting game beta” we’ve ever played, adding that “everything from the presentation, to the stellar netcode, to the gorgeous battle hub, to the ease of finding matches, to the sheer number of options and modes accessible,” was top notch.
