![]() ![]() You can also trigger online matches against players you meet here, though that’s equally possible (and simpler) straight out of the Fighting Ground menu. I highly recommend jumping in here first, as it’s the quickest way to try out the roster’s sixteen launch characters and get a feel for who you like best.īattle Hub, meanwhile, is the online/social hub, where players can spectate other matches, enter into online tournaments, and interact with other players’ avatars. It also defines itself by presenting players with three new, discrete modes: Fighting Ground, Battle Hub, and World Tour.įighting Ground is where most players will spend their time: it’s where you’ll find all your standard SF content, like multiplayer matches (local and online), Arcade/Story Mode, Training, and so on. Right off the bat, this new SF defines itself with a bold, paint-splattered aesthetic that’s clearly been inspired by the inky graphics of SFIV, albeit with more vibrant colours. Still, by any measure, gaming is ripe for a new SF, and SF6 delivers in spades. The previous entry, SFV, was released seven years ago, though the final downloadable character only arrived in late 2021. I realize I’ve been writing this a lot lately, but SF6 must be one of the most hotly-anticipated video games in recent memory. ![]() For me, the great joy of Street Fighter is finding the character I most respond to, whether it’s because of their move-set, their style, or some other aspect I identify with.Īnd as it turns out, in Street Fighter 6 that character is me. ![]() I am no fighting game expert – frankly, I kind of suck – but my love for these games is undying: I love the way they look, I love the way they control, I love the way they sound, and I especially love the characters. I have played a lot of Street Fighter II, and some SFIII, and quite a bit of SFIV, and also quite a bit more of SFV. SFII was – is – a remarkable achievement, a video game so impeccably designed that even its bugs became permanent features of the genre. Specifically, Street Fighter II: The New Challengers, the fourth version of SFII and the one to introduce Bruce Lee analogue Fei Long, my favourite fighting game character, bar none. My favourite fighting game of all time is Street Fighter II. The first of presumably seventeen editions of Street Fighter 6. Available Jfor PS5 (reviewed), PS4, Xbox X/S, and Windows.
