While exciting enough on its own, the trailer provided fans a whole lot more including a new look at stages set in locations like Metro City and France, as well as some of the mini-games that can be played including the classic basketball parry that Third Strike players will likely remember. The trailer was packed with new information including confirming the Street Fighter 6 launch date leak of June 2, 2022. Thankfully, that question has now been answered thanks to a brand-new trailer that debuted at The Game Awards.

For the first time, the Street Fighter series now has an open world campaign which allows players to create their own character, explore Metro City, and take on challengers. Fans got an early look at revamped characters like Luke and Ken, as well as trying out all new originals such as Kimberly and Jamie. Over the past few months, tons of new details for Street Fighter 6 have continued to appear online through new trailers as well as the closed beta test.

Capcom has also started announcing some of the characters. Switching to the RE Engine, Street Fighter 6 wowed fans with an all new look including familiar characters that have aged a bit from what fans have come to expect. All together, that adds up to a launch roster of 18 characters, which is two more than Street Fighter 5’s paltry 16 character roster. Capcom continues to ride high following its reveal of Street Fighter 6 earlier this year. Capcom unveils a new Street Fighter 6 trailer at The Game Awards, confirming a ton of new information including characters like Dee Jay, stages, and the long awaited release date.
