Street Fighter VI - Here Comes a New Challenger! PS5, XSX, PC in 2023!

[Goemon]

Good breakdown of what was seen in the new footage from the new characters.

 

 

[Lying Cat]

Some full matches up from characters we've not had a stab at in the Beta.

 

Blanka vs JP

 

 

Marisa vs Manon

 

 

[wretcherd]

Their animations are just wonderful, Marisa's power and Manon's balletic elegance. Marisa's level 3 is chef's kiss 😘🤛

Dhalsim vs. Deejay

I should've bought that Blanka-chan plushie when I had the chance

57-ish seconds in Dee Jay uses his jumping Knee Shot and juggles after it on counterhit. I love it. I hope that move is still annoying.

[Goemon]

Marisa’s damage is OBSCENE!

[Goemon]

Good breakdown of the matches here. One scary thing he points out is that Blanka’s blocked Blanka Ball takes one entire drive bar off the opponent!

 

If you’re a character that can’t punish this move you’re in for a world of hurt!

 

 

[Benny]

Can we ban talking about "scary" Blanka stuff until the game is out?

 

It's obviously just going to make everyone upset and confused.

Watching these vids and it's just gobbledegook to me. Would love to have the patience to learn the ins & outs of this, but I know I'll be mostly butten mashing.

It's just a vaguely in-depth look at what the characters did in the fights because we've never really seen them in action before. But it sounds as though you'll be well along your way soon.

 

Through the bashing of the button, we learn which button we should bash - from there you will walk the path of the master, and learn the art of knowing when not to bash the button.

Ouch! Videos removed due to copyright…Capcom didn’t want us to see this?

Ripped from a PPV stream.

[joffocakes]

Looks like they removed most of the rehosted footage and in-depth breakdowns, including Rooflemonger, but Maximillian's doesn't seem to be affected.

 

It's from a pay-per-view event apparently so I guess that's why they were taking down reuploads. The footage will be released next week.

 

 

EDIT: Max is down too, now.

Ahh, so Capcom didn't want us to see this....For free.

[Goemon]

Looks like Capcom have now officially released the footage for everyone. Rooflemonger has redone his video with the cleaner footage.

They're back and in HD this time:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Even the thumbnails look amazing.

 

Wait; JP is supposed to be a Russian oligarch?

Thea Trinidad is joining the commentators:

 

 

[dave7g]

Why her and not Kenny Omega?

[mayor_mike_haggar]

Lads turns out we've been doing SPD wrong all these years.  ChatGPT put me to rights today.

 

[joffocakes]

Playstation State of Play showed off the Zangief, Lily and Cammy alongside their stages. Very excited about the big man and Wee Hawk.

 

[krenzler]

So what do the die-hards think of the Cammy design? 

[Kayin Amoh]

Don't really like the Jacket much, rest's okay. Seeing her animated movie neck snap super was a funny throwback.

 

She reminds me on another fighting game character, but who that is isn't coming to mind. Might just be Billy Kane I'm blending with a female one.

 

Anyway, there's now three characters I'd consider playing. Ken, Marissa (who I keep confusing with Mammon - I'm talking about the massive spartan style gladiator ass kicker) and Cammy.

Wee Hawk.

 

👏👏 👏

[Keyboard Koala]

It looks glorious! Like red cyclone!

[Curtis]

It's crazy that I can still get hype about two characters I've known for over 20 years because the gameplay was genuinely exciting.

 

Also, the new girl, who from here-on-out will be called Wee Hawk (credit to @joffocakes) looked so much fun.

 

I need this game in my life, like now! 

[Lying Cat]

I don’t think Zangief has ever looked so good.

 

We’re going to sort out regular forum nights for this, right?

[Captain Kelsten]

ZANGIEF!!! My life is complete. Gone from “yeah at some point” to day one!  
 

Also hot damn, the animation is incredible 

[Nick R]

Hey I'm not sure if anyone has ever noticed this before but did you know Cammy is English?

 

Her new stage may be anachronistic but it's still more accurate than that time they suggested we could see the northern lights from the UK.

Spoiler

(At this time of day, localised entirely etc etc)

Don't worry. It comes with a special pair of polarising glasses that changes the colour from navy blue to pink for those unable to imagine a virtual arse.
