If some questions still remain unanswered concerning Street Fighter 6 such as crossplay or netcode given that the netcode of SF5 has been very criticized, we are starting to see more clearly on the side of the list of fighters who will appear in the game of base. Powered by the RE Engine game engine, SFVI will try to disorient players as much as possible with first of all a brand new graphic style and an immersive story mode with open areas where it is possible to carry out some street activities between two fights in addition to the traditional game modes to fight locally with friends or online with players around the world.
☆ Note – You can take a look at SFVI's first gameplay video which highlighted the new graphical style and some game modes here among PlayStation's State of Play June 2022 announcements: All State Announcements Of Play For PlayStation 5 And PSVR2.
