What parents need to know
Street Fighter 6 is a 2D fighting game, where opponents compete in 1 against 1. The graphics are in 3D.
Each of the two players chooses a character from a selection of 18 characters (at launch, this number will increase over the years), and competes on a level on a 2D plane.
Each character has unique characteristics and special powers, but they have a common basis of action: normal moves, special moves, and super powers, throws, guard.
In addition to the common base of action, Street Fighter 6 adds many mechanics to diversify the ways to attack. It’s like a combination of mechanics that were presented in Street Fighter 3, 4 and 5.
Although the developers have planned many arguments to introduce beginners to this opus, veterans of fighting games and especially the Street Fighter series will naturally be advantaged thanks to the similar basics and mechanics.
To follow the scenario, there is no need to have played the previous games.
Attention for Xbox console owners: the game will be available on Xbox Series but not on Xbox One.
