Street Fighter 6 - Ultimate Fighting Game Launches With 92/100 on Metacritic [UPDATE]

The big day has finally arrived for fighting game fans, especially Street Fighter from Capcom. Street Fighter 6 is available today on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S.

1. Street Fighter 6 offers three main game modes: Fighting Ground, World Tour and Battle Hub.
2. There is no shortage of well-known fighters. There are Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li and Guile, among others.
3. On Steam Street Fighter 6 is protected by the Denuvo anti-piracy system.

The story-driven World Tour mode is exceptionally interesting. Recall that it has the players create their own custom character and travel around the world, gaining experience in fights with the series' iconic fighters, as well as learning special techniques from them.

Street Fighter 6 collects very good reviews and sets records

Many editors have given the game high ratings. Let's add that on Metacritic the average rating of reviewers is currently 92/100, which is obviously an excellent score.

Street Fighter 6 has really hit the market hard. On Steam the current release day peak is up to 65,873 concurrent users - With such a result, Capcom's latest fightin game has swept away the competition (including recent installments of Tekken and Mortal Kombat). Users have so far issued nearly 430 reviews on Valve's platform, 81% of which are positive.
