    all characters look ugly and the push for gender ambiguity is disgusting, the music sucks on purpose to sell you DLC tracks, characters are behind additional paywall so of course DLC characters will be pay to win for some time before they get balanced.

    Great game play. SCUMBAG microtransactions. No content to keep casual players coming back.

    I purchased this game based on the high critic scores, but I wish I would have paid more attention to user reviews. Here's some pros and cons:

    Pros: 1. The graphics look very good on PS5 and have the same vibrant, fun and colourful look of previous SF games. 2. The open world is good for what it is, especially for a fighting game and Capcom needs to be commended for this.

    Cons:

    1. Learning curves are pretty much now pointless since it offers no advantages for mastering skills since newbies can button mash there way to a victory. Akin to a pub fighter beating up a kung fu master.

    2. The fluidity and smoothness of previous games is gone. The fighting is sluggish and often feels like you're playing underwater.

    3. The game has no edge and has none of the fun over-the-top scenes. Characters are extremely vanilla and bland.

    4. The host Eternity is cringe, corny and repugnant to look at. Obviously included to tick some checkbox as is the removal of male and female identities. For this reason I wouldn't recommend this game to people who still hold traditional (i.e. normal) values.    … Expand

    Too few characters and too much character design.
    World Tour mode is a pain to move around and the enemies are too hard.
    DLC characters are too expensive. And many of them are characters that were in the previous games.

    Street Fighter 6 might be great for some people. But i personally hate fighting genre in games. They are boring, repetitive, and monotone. There is no reason to play campaign mode in fighting games, except for the cut scene. And the most disturb me is why do some people love this garbage genre. They must have bad taste in video games

    The only and biggest pro is that unlike SFV, there is more for single, offline players to do and they don't seem to be trying to nickel and dime you (yet) to access a lot of the game. It's also nice to see SF finally adopt a "create your own fighter" after resisting it so long.

    However and unfortunately, it seems like this whole game, and especially art, graphics, gameplay, and especially the new characters seem to be marketing and focus group driven towards kids, teens, and female gamers with the lame and eyerollingly corny trap rap cr*py trends in today's music industry and aesthetics; none of it appealing to adults or any of the long time veterans and players of the game.

    Even worse is the introduction of straight up button mashing and spamming called "modern controls" in order to make it more easier and appealing to the younger and casual gamer. If you're going to be playing online, be prepared for people being very cheap.

    The World Tour mode is a good idea and concept, but terrible execution. It's a boring and repetitive slog of a grind fest where all you do is do fetch quests while you beat up literally anyone and everyone: cops, hot dog stand vendors, grannies, tourists, anyone for money and XP in order to buy a change of clothes and that's it. It's just aimless and pointless and offers no real challenge or real and serious rewards.

    I wouldn't honestly wait until the complete version or more DLC. The look, feel, and execution of this game is a letdown, but your kids will love it. It's made for them more than anything.    … Expand

    To be fair, the gameplay is better than SF5, not as boring and sleepy. However, the drive mechanics are old and not inspiring. We have seen all those parries, dash cancel, alpha counters in the past titles. You can easily tell Capcom are being lazy to develop something new. All they did is to stack all the old stuff, repackage it as a new game and charge your money with a new game price.To be fair, the gameplay is better than SF5, not as boring and sleepy.

    The monetization and in-game currencies are stupid and totally unnecessary. Never have I seen a fighting game requiring players to either grind more than ten hours or pay extra on top of a fully priced game to get default outfit colors. The "Wokeness" in this game are also very disgusting. Players are not allowed to choose genders in character creations. There is this sexual abomination constantly appears in the story mode just to make you throw out. The bgm is also trash level. I literally have to turn it off while playing this game.

    There are also problems in the pc version. If you interest in Street Fighters, might as well play ST and USF4.    … Expand

    The open world system is disappointing, and I have no desire to explore it. I've only been playing local co-op, and we don't even have an alternative skin available from the start.

    As always, there are few characters available at the game's launch, which discourages players from engaging in co-op, as after 5 or 8 fights, you and your friend will have played with all the characters.

    The idea of having an AI to assist new players is brilliant. My girlfriend enjoyed playing, and my uncle felt like he was 16 again when he played brilliantly in the arcades.

    Yes, the combat is good, and the parry system is really cool.

    I intend to play again in a few months or after a year or two. In its current state, it doesn't make sense to play due to the limited number of characters and skins. Even my uncle, who was looking forward to playing, got tired of it in less than 2 hours.    … Expand

    This game is plagued by battle passes (or Fighting Passes, as they call them), which makes playing the game feel like a grind, and the rewards are terrible, though that's probably for the better.

    The game would be so much better if they just scrapped the battle passes, had better art direction and music. World Tour is also an unnecessary feature in my opinion, and the time and effort spent on creating it could have been better spent elsewhere.    … Expand

    The bad The same ridiculous character designs like in SF 4&5. Everyone looks juiced up to **** The women look hot, so if anime tiddies are up your alley then you're in luck. The cutscenes are total junk. I'd prefer them to not be there rather than have to keep skipping them. Music is totally forgettable but the music outside of the actual fights is outright terrible. It sounds dated and much of it sounds like bad gameshow jingles. Have Capcom never heard their competition. Come on guys, Killer Instinct destroys this on sound.

    Gameplay. I went over the great mechanics but for me it is ruined by yet another slow game. SF2 had turbo options, SF3 was fast. Although the game is responsive, it still manages to feel slow and boring.

    SF5 can barely hold my attention for 3, or 4 fights. SF6 does for maybe 5, or 6. The difference being that I like SF6 enough to play again another day and the fact I'll play it again is the reason for the 4 score. I play a lot of fighters and it just doesn't reach that level of enjoyability for me. Coming from KoF, Fatal Fury etc, this feels a bit sluggish.

    The terrible. Now I haven't included this in my score but £25 for trickle fed DLC which should have just been part of the release is shocking. Awful business practice and truly put me off. Just give me the full damn game.

    I feel like I am playing a £12-£15 game but it actually cost £45. I feel value for money is bad.

    This is my newest fighter that I have owned nearly a week and I am sat here contemplating what I want to play today. Killer Instinct, KoF 15, any Blazblue, MK11, Injustice 2, Garou, 3rd Strike. SF6 isn't even on the cards and after less than a week, it should be my no1 choice.

    Another downer isn't to do with the game itself but I feel Play Station controllers just feel horrible for fighters. If it had not been for me trading in other games for this and I was just buying it, then I would have preferred it on Steam with my old Xbox controller. In all it's not a bad game but I find so many of its competitors more fun to play. It is good having to guess your opponents next move, for defence, counters and throw resists and this is where the game does shine.

    I think addition of a speed boost may improve my score. It's worth having in your collection but it wouldn't be in my top 10 fighters. Tbh I think I actually enjoyed Jump Force more than this and I generally only go for 2D fighters.

    I think I would have preferred a modern equivalent of SF 2s, 3s and Alphas but this feels more like a modernised SF 4&5. Both of which are pretty dull and wank.

    If the genre had fewer options then this might have got a 6/10 but competition outshines it.    … Expand

    A game destroyed by "modern controls" which is essentially a cheat which allows people with no skill to use specials with 1 button. It should have been kept offline but it wasn't and now this game is unplayable for anyone who grew up playing fighting games.

    Music and aesthetics in games is huge topic for me, just as important as gameplay mechanics. Street Fighter always has been great in that regard (specially in the 90s and early 2000s). In this case, for this game's iteration, complete sh*t. I f*kng hated the full turn into trap and "urban music" genre, only to fit the also cr*py trends in today's music industry and aesthetics. F*ck this sh*t.

    World tour mode is a joke with repetitive fights and a forgettable story. Arcade mode is forgettable as well with no boss fight. It's like they wanted to create more content just for the sake of it due to SFV's backlash, but the execution is piss poor! The online seems to have some bugs that needs to be ironed out as I keep getting error messages.

    World Tour is really badly done, they would have been better just scraping it. It feels they did it in the last 10 minutes.

    The actual fighting is pretty good, but... I don't want to play against people using the modern control... online just got way more spammy... they can spam specials with just smashing one button now..... WHY ON EARTH YOU CAN'T FILTER FIGHTS BASED ON CONTROLS?

    If this is "the future of fighting games", fighting games are headed in a bad direction. Further proof that indie titles will always have more heart and soul than AAA big budget releases, yet still get swept under the rug by the casual audience. This is quite literally the most overrated fighting game of all time.

    The reason the graphics and animations are so poor is because of the outdated RE engine, hopefully Super Street Fighter 6 coming next year will have a new engine.

    Street Fighter 6 honestly feels like the best game of the series in every facet possible. The long term will prove or disprove this though as these games tend to morph and change over their lifetime. But for this game to take that title, it’s done everything right from the outset to cement its legacy as the best of the best. This game is a recommendation for people interested in fighting games at any level, go check it out now.
