How a video game presents itself to the potential players of its community is important. After all, if a gamer doesn’t know what your title is about or how it plays, they won’t have the urge to play it. For a long-running series, they need to impress upon players that things have grown, evolved, and is worth another purchase. Then, those who have gotten on the “bad side” of their players need to prove they can make it up to them with the next iteration. Street Fighter 6 has had much to prove since its initial announcement, and the newly released launch trailer highlights how the game is about the community.
Easily the biggest surprise about the trailer is that it’s headlined and narrated by rapper Lil Wayne. He eloquently talks about how the game is where gamers can show off their passion, style, skills, and more as they play against one another. How this is where they can “break the rules” and “bend minds” with how they battle and surprise one another with the results.
If you look closely at the trailer, you’ll notice plenty of references to the game’s universe and the outside world. In one spot, you’ll notice WWE superstar Zelina Vega in her Juri Cosplay that she wore to a WWE event. Vega is one of the color commentators for the title, and this further proves that the game is embracing the community and all that have put their passion into it.
As Lil Wayne notes, this is the game where you can “make your masterpiece,” so watch the launch trailer below and see if you feel inspired:
