Live Service Game Street Fighter 6 Will Also Have A Battle Pass, And Two Currencies

 Fans and influencers have made a surprising discovery about Street Fighter 6.

We had previously reported that Street Fighter 6 enjoyed stellar reviews. In fact, it already looks to be one of the most highly reviewed fighting games in the past five years, possibly 10.

Now, however, it looks like Capcom hadn’t been entirely honest to their reviewers when they showed them this game. As reported by VideoGamer, Street Fighter 6 will have a battle pass.

To add to this, we also have an account from Dexerto, who revealed that Street Fighter 6 will also have two currencies.

Fighter Coins are the currency that can be purchased with real life money, comparable to that highly unpopular Fight Money from Street Fighter V.

And the official name for the Battle Pass is Fighter’s Pass. This also seems to fit in with the game’s overall themes, as the player would seemingly be obsessed with multiple ways of fighting.

For now, we don’t know what will be available to purchase or redeem using either of the game’s currencies or in the Fighter’s Pass.

For what it’s worth, Capcom did not make any promise that
