Here come some new challengers. Capcom released a three-in-one character trailer at the February 2023 State Of Play for their upcoming fighting game Street Fighter 6. Two familiar world warriors and a new challenger in this numbered entry are featured.
The trailer starts off with Zangief. The staple grappler character is more a wrestler than ever. The newcomer, Lily, fights like a whirlwind, utilising a pair of war clubs. She hails from the Thunderfoot tribe, similar to T. Hawk. And lastly, Cammy now wears pants, and that has not nullified any of her sharp pokes.
With these three reveals, all of the main 18 playable characters at launch are now revealed officially.
Street Fighter 6 will bring an extensive single-player mode called World Tour where you go around the world as a custom character. But the classic 1v1 2D fighting game experience is still intact in Fighting Ground. There’s also the Battle Hub, an online lobby system where you and other players can hang around an arcade, virtually.
Street Fighter 6 will be out on June 2 for the PS4, PS5, PC via Steam and Xbox Series X|S.
