Street Fighter 6 Will Get Closed Beta Next Month

ign.com:

Players eager to get their hands on Street Fighter 6 may not have to wait too long as Capcom has announced the game is getting a closed beta in October.

Revealed during the publisher’s Tokyo Game Show presentation, players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam can join the closed beta taking place from October 7 to 10.

Only a limited number of players can sign up and, while Capcom didn't share details on how many or how to do so, it did say that details would soon follow on Street Fighter 6's official website.

The closed beta for Street Fighter 6 takes place next month.

The beta appears to be pretty extensive, featuring a ton of modes including Ranked Match, Casual Match, Battle Hub Match, Open Tournament, the new Extreme Battle, Game Center, and Training Mode.

Tokyo Game Show has featured a ton of reveals so far, with Capcom also announcing that Ken, Blanka, Dhalsim, and E. Honda would be returning in Street Fighter 6.

The game was announced back in February, with new bits of information being released slowly but surely since. A gameplay trailer showed Chun-Li and Ryu in action alongside newcomer Luke, and Capcom later showed a way to mentally battle your opponents before the match.

Jamie and Guile were also confirmed to feature, and at EVO 2022 Capcom announced the return of Juri and first appearance of Kimberly, who comes with a moveset focused on fast-paced jabs and aerial kicks.
