After Street Fighter 5 was a PS4 console exclusive, there was some concern that Capcom’s next fighter might also end up only on Sony consoles. Rejoice, then, for Street Fighter 6 is coming to Xbox… albeit only Series X|S.
Interestingly, SF6 is still coming to PS4, so it’s only on Xbox that last-gen is left to be gutter trash, but a Series X|S announcement is welcome all the same, and we look forward to getting back in the fight. Also, parrying is back. The hype is real.
Street Fighter 6 coming to Xbox
Capcom dropped a new trailer for Street Fighter 6 at Sony’s State of Play event earlier in the week, and while the splash screen there only mentioned PlayStation consoles, the full version of the trailer confirms that after missing a generation, Xbox players will be able to jump back into Street Fighter when this new game launches in 2023.
Open-world weirdness, new characters, and some familiar faces all pop up in the trailer, with the new Drive system seemingly combining a bunch of series staples (supers, EX specials, parries, and more) into one meter… we’re so ready to get back in the lab.
Any Street Fighter fans in the house? Let’s hear from you!
