Street Fighter 6
As one of the people who really enjoyed Street Fighter V despite its problems, Street Fighter 6 has looked less like a “resurgence” of the iconic fighting series to me, and more like just a new game in the series I’ve been enjoying for several years. However, as lapsed fans who took issue with SFV have latched onto Street FIghter 6 as a return to form for the series, it’s been hard to not buy into the sentiment. Along with more fine-tuning to the series’ genre-standard 2D fighting, Street Fighter 6 is bringing a lot of new ways to play to the series, including a story mode that features exploration elements, character creation, and new control schemes to make the game more approachable. There’s a lot to be excited about in the series’ future when Street Fighter 6 launches for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on June 2.
