Street Fighter 6" World Tour, Fighting Ground, Battle Hub game mode trailer

The new "World Tour" mode finally lifts the veil!

The stage is set in "Metro City" at the "Buckler Security Service". The story begins when the player meets Luke, the instructor in charge, and enrolls in a training course.
In "World Tour," players can create their own avatars. The customization options are abundant and include features that reflect the player's personal preferences to the last detail!

The "Avatar Creation" menu includes options for fine-tuning facial and body parts, including height, body shape, upper and lower body proportions, muscle mass, skin color, body hair, and other details. Muscle mass can also be set, and the avatar's body shape can be selected from muscular, fat, muscle + fat, and more. You can choose to reflect yourself or create the body type you want. Create your own alter ego!

More detailed settings are available in categories such as hairstyle, eye shape, iris/conjunctiva, eyebrows, nose, mouth, ears, and beard. Each category offers a number of options that allow you to change your avatar in every detail, so be sure to experience them for yourself.

In addition, avatars can be "equipped. Equipment is a customizable avatar item that can be purchased at the World Tour store.
Equipment includes the head, upper body, lower body, legs, and feet, as well as a set of equipment that allows you to change all parts of your avatar's body. The equipment can be checked and changed at any time from the "Equipment" menu in the status menu, allowing players to enjoy changing their clothes according to events and their moods. Furthermore, each piece of "equipment" has its own performance, and the avatar's status changes as it is worn, so be sure to find your favorites.
The "personalized avatars" that reflect the player's own personal taste and preferences will surely make you feel as if you have landed in the world of "Street Fighter 6".

After setting up an avatar, Luke, the instructor in charge, will be your guide for the "World Tour," and your adventure in Metro City will begin. The world of "Street Fighter 6" is yours to explore!
As you progress through the story, you will meet legendary characters who have appeared in previous "Street Fighter" games, and you can learn their battle styles by apprenticing with them as "masters.
As your bond with your master deepens, you will learn their "Master Actions," such as Ryu's "Shoryuken" and Chun-Li's "Spinning Bird Kick. Master Actions can be used not only to gain an advantage in battle, but also for movement and exploration, such as destroying crates and barrels in the "World Tour" or jumping to a remote high ground. However, the Master Action consumes the Drive Gauge, so be sure to keep an eye on the remaining gauge at all times.

During the "World Tour," players will encounter a variety of challenges. By interacting with the inhabitants of the "Street Fighter" world through street fights, players will become stronger.

In Metro City, "familiar places" to long-time fans will appear as landmarks in the city. It's a great way to explore the city. We hope you enjoy the immersive experience of Street Fighter 6.
World Tour" will be the new foundation mode for "Street Fighter 6," and we plan to provide more information on it in the future, so stay tuned!

Battle Hub, where fighters from around the world gather

Battle Hub" is another core mode of "Street Fighter 6" that allows players to communicate with other players using avatars created in World Tour. Players can also interact with other players from around the world while playing online content from "Fighting Ground".
Up to 100 players can enter a single "Battle Hub" at the same time, and they can communicate using emotes and chat functions, or show off fashion items obtained from the "Hub Goods Shop" by equipping them with fashion items.
The Battle Hub is an unprecedented communication space where players can bring their own avatars, gather freely, dress up, and have fun!

The "Battle Hub" is equipped with a variety of arcade machines. In the "Battle Hub Match," players face each other at battle tables like in a game center, and the match begins as soon as players are seated on both sides! Players in the same Battle Hub can watch the match in real time, making the usual battle even more thrilling!
The Battle Hub is a heated experience that feels like you are in a game arcade.

The "Game Center" cabinet allows players to play Capcom's classic arcade games such as "Street Fighter II" and "Final Fight. Many players may be confident in their skills. Let's compete with others for the high score!

Be sure to check the "Event Counter" to see what events are currently being held as well as the various events scheduled for the future. Tournaments are also held regularly, so this is a great opportunity to get a feel for the atmosphere of a game tournament. Don't forget to turn on the automatic commentary feature for a more realistic experience.

You don't have to fight in the Battle Hub. You can choose your favorite music from the DJ booth and have a great time on the dance floor with your friends.
This is the "Battle Hub" for everyone!
We hope you will look forward to this new place of communication where you can have a good time with your friends.

Four iconic Street Fighter characters will be joining the game!


Ryu's best friend and rival!  The man himself is coming!

Profile.
Former U.S. National Fighting Champion and former vice president of the Masters Foundation. After being accused of being the ringleader of organized crime due to a certain incident, he has given up his position and has gone into hiding away from his beloved family.

Now, the long awaited announcement of "Ken"! Ken's main moves are the same as in previous titles in the series, such as the Nandoken, Shoryuken, and Tatsumaki Senpukyaku, which are flashy, combo-friendly, and powerful body moves, and they are still present in this title. The "Ryu Senpaku" and "Fuchin Senpaku" from "Street Fighter V" appear as special moves in this title. The new "Xunrai Legs," a series of forward kicks followed by a series of attacks, can be used in a wide range of combos and to break down guards using three derivative moves!

Blanka, a kind-hearted warrior of nature, joins the fray!

Profile.
Blanka is a kind-hearted warrior of the great outdoors. With confidence in her knowledge of the jungle and dreams of one day becoming popular, she supports her mother by guiding adventure tours. Blanca's battles take place on the stage of "Ranger's Hut," a riverside setting overlooking a lush village.

Blanka's wild special moves, such as the "Electric Thunder" and "Rolling Attack," which are unique to her skill at surprise and disruption, have been retained, and powerful special moves such as the "Area Rolling" and "Blanka-chan Bomb" have been added. The "Blanka-chan Bomb" is a special move in which Blanka-chan, a doll modeled after Blanka, is thrown to the ground, and when the doll comes into contact with a special move in which Blanka emits an electric shock, it explodes, charging at the opponent in a fury! Normally, "Blanca-chan" is a cute doll, but when electrified, she is very dangerous!

Dhalsim, the flaming warrior who hates evil!

Profile
An Indian ascetic and yoga master. He is a yoga master and a guide for people, responding to countless voices of distress and suffering. He does not like to engage in futile conflicts, but he also shows his severity in battle because he cannot tolerate wrongdoing. The "Dhalsimer Temple" stage in Dhalsim is a solemn and serene temple dedicated to the elephant god. The monks are diligently practicing yoga.

Dhalsim is a technical character who fights with the power of fire in addition to his freely extending limbs, but in this title, his fire special moves have been further enhanced to allow him to attack from any angle. By using "Yoga Fire" to send flames horizontally and "Yoga Arch" to fly in an arc, he can limit his opponent's movement and be effective in the fight. The new "Yoga Comet" technique blasts a ball of flame from the air to the ground. We hope you will experience Dhalsim's various battle styles in this title, such as "Yoga Flame" for combos, "Yoga Blast" for air attacks, and "Yoga Teleport" for surprise attacks. Dhalsim no longer has any blind spots.

Edmond Honda, the "wow-a-doodle-doo" strong-arm wrestler.

Profile.
A wrestler who fights to make sumo "wai arudo waiido. He is a yokozuna-level rikishi, but his ranking is still the highest in the world, as he travels around the world without a tournament to attend. He is an expert at cooking, and his chanko-nabe is exquisite.

Edmund Honda's powerful and dynamic battle style is a real attraction. His trademark moves, "Hyakusai Harate," "Super Head Thrust," "Super Hyakukan Dotoshi," and "Ooginkan Nage," also appear in this work! The "Shoulder Yairi," which was a V-skill in the previous work, is a technique that strengthens the next move, the "Hyakusai Harate," by performing a sumo kata. Another new skill, "Sumo Step," is an effective technique for closing the distance between opponents, and can be derived into a series of paparazzi moves or blows to launch the opponent! Be sure to incorporate it into your combos for high damage!

The automatic play-by-play feature will be joined by Hiraiwa and Demon Lord!

◆"Street Fighter 6" Kosuke Hiraiwa & His Excellency Demon join the game!

Two new commentators, Kosuke Hiraiwa and Demon Lord, have been announced for the "Auto Play-by-play Commentary" feature! Kosuke Hiraiwa is a former announcer for Asahi Broadcasting Corporation, and is currently active as an e-sports caster. With his announcing skills and expertise, he is sure to bring even more excitement to the "Street Fighter 6" battles!
And on the 35++ anniversary of his earthly debut, His Excellency Daemon will unexpectedly participate in "Street Fighter! Enjoy the voice of Demon Lord in the actual battles of "Street Fighter 6," scheduled for release in 2023!

New Mode "Extreme Battle

Extreme Battle" is a new battle mode added to "Fighting Ground. Extreme Battle" can be played like a party game, with special "rules" and "gimmicks. For example, there are "rules" such as "The first player to knock down five opponents wins! and a gimmick in which a bullfighting bull comes onto the stage. In "Extreme Battles," the strongest do not always win. To survive in extreme battles, luck is as important as technique!
