Street Fighter 6 Demo Out Now On PlayStation, Launches On Xbox And PC Soon
During the Street Fighter 6 Showcase earlier today, Capcom announced a demo for Street Fighter 6, which is out now on Playstation 4 and PlayStation 5, with the Xbox and PC versions launches on April 26.
The free download will allow players to create their in-game avatar, which can be used in the demo’s limited World Tour mode. The avatar created in the demo can then be imported to the full game when it launches in June.
The demo also includes some limited options in the Fighting Ground mode, a list which includes the following:
Street Fighter 6 DLC Season 1 Announced: Akuma Returns, A.K.I. Debuts
The Street Fighter 6 Showcase unveiled the first set of downloadable fighters for Street Fighter 6, and it will include three returning fighters and one brand-new entrant.
First up is Rashid, who debuted as part of Street Fighter V’s launch roster and will hit SF6 in Summer 2023. His unique moveset–one that harnesses tornadoes and other wind-based powers–quickly made him not only a fan favorite, but also a potent competitive character throughout SFV’s lifespan.
The second DLC character in Season 1 is A.K.I, a mysterious woman with pale white skin who will launch in Fall 2023. Her moveset makes use of both her skills in Chinese martial arts but also massive claws she dons on each hand.
Street Fighter 6 Showcase goes live tomorrow – features Lil Wayne
A Street Fighter 6 showcase will be going live tomorrow! It’ll be just over 30 minutes long and will feature Lil Wayne for some reason. Okay!
Announced via the official Capcom Twitter, the showcase will be the final pre-release update before the game launches on June 2. We don’t know what to expect from this showcase at this time, other than it will contain “big news and announcements,” according to the announcement post, so we’ll have to tune in and find out live!
When does the Street Fighter 6 showcase go live? Well, the show is set to kick off at 3PM PT / 6PM ET / 11AM BST / 12AM CEST. Those two latter time zones will have to check in April 21.
Capcom And Higround Announce Street Fighter Keyboard Line
Capcom has announced a new partnership with gaming peripheral brand Higround to launch a line of Street Fighter-themed gaming keyboards, which will feature characters and famous artwork from the fighting franchise’s storied history.
The Street Fighter keyboards will feature three different themes:
- A close-up of Akuma with an outstretched fist, as drawn by artist Edayan for Super Street Fighter 2: Turbo Revival in 2001
- Ryu and Chun-Li performing the Hadoken and Lightning Kicks respectively, which uses artwork drawn during Street Fighter II’s development.
- A mash-up of character key-art from Street Fighter II: Champion Edition, with characters including Ken, Blanka, Dhalsim, and more highlighted.
Higround will also release a trio of extended mouse pads along with the keyboards, with each pad also featuring famous art from the early years of Street Fighter. The options for mouse pads include Guile’s stage from Street Fighter 2, a recreation of the “Presented By Capcom” screen shown after finishing SSF2T, and the same Ryu and Chun-Li art featured on one of the keyboards.
