Street Fighter 6 is the most feature-rich a Street Fighter has ever been at launch, but even beyond that, it’s roster of 18 characters is excellent, the new mechanics revitalize the one-on-one fighting formula, and it absolutely nails all of the little things that make for a stellar fighting game.

| 3DNews | Алексей Лихачев | 9.5 / 10 | 06-18-2023 | A large-scale and insanely engaging fighting game with high production values, especially compared to the release version of Street Fighter V. It’s able to please both longtime fans of this franchise and newcomers unfamiliar with the genre. If you have long waited to join a huge crowd of Street Fighter fans, but didn’t know how to approach it, now is the best time to do it. | Read review |
| AnaitGames | Víctor Manuel Martínez García | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Capcom’s classic game is back with a new installment that combines technical and competitive gameplay with new mechanics and modes to open up to new audiences. | Read review |
| Areajugones | Ramón Baylos | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is proof that we are facing the best Capcom of the decade. Shaping up as a before and after of the franchise, it is a game designed with obvious intentions to attract new people and, at the same time, preserve the incredible legacy that the veterans of the saga fell in love with in their day. It is the atonement for the ancient sins of a company that has known how to listen to its fans; it’s a small step for Capcom, but a big step for the fighting game genre. | Read review |
| Ars Technica | Aurich Lawson | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | Dynamic mode provides the true button-mashing experience. I like to think of it as a “kid brother” mode. There are only three buttons, and they perform different attacks depending on which one you press and the range from which you press it. With a single button, you can throw a fireball from across the screen, punch someone when closer to them, or execute a throw while up in their face. A combo button makes you jump in for an attack from a distance or execute several moves in a row from up close. It’s so easy that it feels like cheating, but with a little practice, I was able to feel in control of my actions. | Read review |
| Atomix | Alberto Desfassiaux | 90 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the redemption of the series. The way it presents a huge amount of content will make fans smile. The only setback is the poor execution of the World Tour. | Read review |
| Attack of the Fanboy | Diego Perez | 4.5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 feels like a celebration of fighting games as a whole, offering newcomers one of the most in-depth onboarding programs ever seen in the form of the new World Tour mode and showing them what makes the FGC so special in the Battle Hub that awaits them when they’re ready. | Read review |
| BaziCenter | Milad Taher Nejad | 9.5 / 10 | 06-19-2023 | The three pillars of Street Fighter 6 are accessibility, online features and a huge amount of content at the time of release. If you are a fighting fan, you are in for a treat this year as we still have Mortal Kombat 1 and possibly Tekken 8 to look forward to, although it would be extremely difficult for the other two to stand up to SF6. | Read review |
| Bazimag | Hamidreza Ghaneei | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an exceptional addition to this revered series, poised to secure its longevity for years to come. With its revolutionary combat mechanics and distinctive character designs, this title promises to captivate both players and spectators alike. Moreover, the implementation of novel control systems and offline modes, such as the Word Tour, offers new players a compelling incentive to explore the game. Overall, Street Fighter 6 is a masterpiece that has undoubtedly raised the bar for the entire franchise. | Read review |
| But Why Tho? | Jason Payne | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is accessible for players of any skill level. It’s open enough to new players but offers what fighter vets need to stay invested in a new title. Good net code, interesting characters, and new features that make it stick out from previous iterations are the things that ensure longevity in the community. | Read review |
| Cerealkillerz | Steve Brieller | 8.6 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 does many things right that V didn’t. World Tour delivers on many small details for fans, especially in the overall creation of your own character. Sadly though, the quest design isn’t really engaging and there aren’t that many story interactions. The open world potential clearly isn’t used and leaves much to be desired. Luckily the gameplay itself when it comes to fighting as well as the character’s (re)designs are on point. Thanks to the rollback netcode the online multiplayer works like a charm | Read review |
| CGMagazine | Zubi Khan | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 packs a punch and should not be missed by fans of Capcom’s legendary fighting franchise, while new accessibility controls make the game more welcoming than ever. | Read review |
| Checkpoint Gaming | Luke Mitchell | 8.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 provides the fast and furious action you’d expect from the refined fighting series, offering a dynamic cast of characters, new control modes to make it more accessible, and a variety of features to keep you busy. Its story mode is a campy take on the Street Fighter universe that doesn’t always land the winning blow, however; while it’s filled with distractions and civilian fighters to take on, it can be a little repetitive and shallow. Still, the technical foundations that Street Fighter stands on are as solid as ever, and with a whole world to battle online, there’s a lot of fighting on the menu in what is once again a polished, exciting fighting experience that will keep fans engaged for years. | Read review |
| Chicas Gamers | Álvaro Bustío | Recommended | 06-05-2023 | Capcom surprises us by providing us with a new installment of the saga with Street Fighter VI. On this occasion, the company goes a step further, showing us that it is still capable of innovating in a genre that seemed somewhat stagnant with its wonderful World Tour mode. Apart from this, it continues to offer us hilarious and varied “old school” combat to enjoy thanks to the large number of options and modes available with which to customize the combat. A game to enjoy alone thanks to its Arcade and World Tour modes or in company fighting against another player, either online or local. A game that any fighting game lover should have in their game library. | Read review |
| COGconnected | Jaz Sagoo | 96 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an incredible celebration of previous releases and a confident stride into the future. The new Drive System adds a multitude of layers to combat making fights the best they have ever been. Capcom’s new approach to single-player content with the World Tour is weird and wonderful even if it can get a little repetitive. The community-focused approach to online play is a step above its competitors and the amount of content is insane. Not only is Street Fighter 6 a worthy sequel, but it’s also the best fighter to date. | Read review |
| Cubed3 | Luke Hemming | 7 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 in it’s simplest form remains a fantastic, fun experience, retaining the same gameplay that has been tweaked and improved throughout the years to ensure it remains top of the pile. | Read review |
| Cultured Vultures | Ashley Bates | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | A sublime fighting game masterpiece from a company at the peak of their powers, Street Fighter 6 is utterly incredible. | Read review |
| Daily Mirror | Scott McCrae | 5 / 5 stars | 05-29-2023 | Street Fighter 6 feels like it’s here to send a message that it’s still the top dog of the fighting game genre. | Read review |
| Daily Star | Tom Hutchison | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Full of content for all different types of gamer, whether that’s the one-vs-computer classic Street Fighter type or the player who loves to live online, making new pals. | Read review |
| DASHGAMER.com | Dan Rizzo | 9 / 10 | 06-16-2023 | Don’t call it a comeback or a renaissance, but think of it as the next chapter of growth in this long-standing saga. Street Fighter has held an insanely large portion of the fighting genre in the palm of its hands for decades, and yes it almost suffered its own embarrassing knock-out last round, but it’s come back stronger, tougher, quicker and much more appealing than ever. | Read review |
| Destructoid | Chris Moyse | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Simply put, Street Fighter 6 is one of the very best entries in series history. | Read review |
| Dexerto | Sayem Ahmed | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a world-class fighting game that drips in style and confidence. In our 100+ hours put into the game, we’re confident that Street Fighter 6 is not only a GOTY contender, but one of the most impressive fighting games ever created. | Read review |
| Digital Chumps | Ben Sheene | 9.5 / 10 | 05-31-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a profoundly rich and diverse fighting game, living up to the series’ legacy. Crafted for everyone, the game entices experimentation, fun, and mastery through online play and a unique campaign that can acclimate all to the genre’s complexities. | Read review |
| Digital Trends | Tomas Franzese | 4.5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is perfect for both seasoned pros and those who have never picked up a fighting game. | Read review |
| Echo Boomer | Diogo dos Santos | Recommended | 06-15-2023 | The adaptation of the legendary fighting saga for the new generation consoles was successful, bringing a new breath to Street Fighter. | Read review |
| Eurogamer | Wesley Yin-Poole | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 rights the wrongs of its predecessor while dragging the famous fighting game franchise kicking and screaming into the modern era. | Read review |
| Everyeye.it | Antonello Gaeta | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the new milestone of the genre. A mass of content never seen in fighting games, two distinct single player modes and an experimental and innovative online component. | Read review |
| Expansive | Laurie Jones | 9 / 10 | 06-10-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the best, most welcoming fighter I’ve ever played. From the presentation to the content, to the way it prepares you to fight in ranked and the stability of the online component, it’s easily the best and most complete Street Fighter game Capcom have ever made. With an enjoyable, World Tour mode that can sink hours of your time, to a thriving community-driven Battle Hub and all the prerequisites you expect from the genre, this stands alongside the best games released this year and is set up to be played and enjoyed for years into the future. | Read review |
| Fextralife | Castielle | 8.4 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Capcom delivers and checks the majority of the boxes when it comes to the classic and new features of Street Fighter 6. It heads down a different direction making it more casual while maintaining the core values of the game, allowing it to be a mainstream fighting game for all players. However, with its awkward performance on the PlayStation 4. The concern is, will World Tour have more content and will the performance issues be fixed. We hope these will be addressed. In the meantime, it is recommended to play Street Fighter 6 on current-gen consoles and PC to fully appreciate and enjoy this game. | Read review |
| Game Informer | Elijah Gonzalez | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Between its cohesive aesthetic, the bounty of clever features, and crisp central gameplay, it’s one of the most impressive entries the genre has seen in some time. | Read review |
| Game Rant | Liam Ferguson | 4.5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | But that’s the risk Street Fighter 6 took when it merged three game-sized modes. World Tour is the accessible and content-rich single-player attraction that the genre has been waiting for and has fully gamified the process of learning a fighting game. Battle Hub is one of the most enticing fighting game lobbies ever, introducing variety in the name of fun. Fighting Ground fills any gaps left by the other modes, while also emphasizing traditional gameplay and SF6’s new mechanics like the Drive System. These modes easily hook their intended audience, and it seems Street Fighter 6 has reclaimed its spot at the top of the fighting game world. | Read review |
| Game Revolution | Michael Leri | 4 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a redemptive sequel that’s more complete and has a distinct style. Street Fighter 5 did eventually get better, but Street Fighter 6 has come out the gate swinging with a suite of deep mechanics with more intuitive ways to learn and master all of them. The single-player modes are lacking, and, in World Tour’s case, disastrous, but it’s a strong fighting game that packs quite a punch. | Read review |
| GameCrate | Lucas White | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Even with my figurative shrug at World Tour mode, it’s easy to see Street Fighter 6 as an achievement for Capcom. There was so much up and down with Street Fighter 5 that sucked the joy out of having a new one, and really only people who showed up years later got the full package. The esports vibe was an understandable experiment, but not one that fully landed. Street Fighter 6 on the other hand is like smashing open a pinata. It’s bursting with energy, style and content in a way very few fighting games have ever managed, even ones praised for single-player offerings. It not only feels like there’s something for everyone here, but it feels like there’s a genuine foundation for a community to grow and thrive. And I definitely plan to stick around and see how that shakes out. | Read review |
| Gamefa | Arman Zarmehr | 9.5 / 10 | 06-04-2023 | not only Street Fighter 6 introduces new features like drive, it also keeps the very core of the franchise intact. From ample content to Amazing soundtrack and lovely characters, Street Fighter 6 Delivers everything you could possibly want from a fighting game. | Read review |
| GameGrin | Mike Crewe | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | The most complete Street Fighter title to date, Street Fighter 6 is a must-play for fighting game fans, and one to consider even if you’re not familiar with the genre. An engaging, stylish beat ’em up that could well be king of the mountain for years to come. | Read review |
| GameMAG | Unknown | 9 / 10 | 06-25-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success. The team at Capcom managed to give newcomers smooth transition into the game with new modern control scheme and big story mode, while also not loosing the gameplay depth this series is known for. | Read review |
| Gamers Heroes | Casey Scheld | 9.5 / 10 | 06-04-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the complete package, with decades of refinement proudly on display. Whether you’re flying solo or hitting the streets with others, this is the definitive Street Fighter experience. | Read review |
| Gamersky | 心灵奇兵 | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 simplifies its gameplay systems without losing depth. It allows players to perform moves with just one button, providing a sense of freedom. It also features a replayable single-player mode that will attract casual gamers new to fighting games. | Read review |
| GAMES.CH | Alain Jollat | 89 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Despite some uncertainty about Capcom’s “after you buy the full-price game” monetisation plans, I can only recommend the game to all fans. Even those who previously found these games too complicated because of the controls. “Street Fighter 6” lives up to the series’ heritage and convinces both in terms of presentation and mechanics. 2023 will be the year for fighting games fans, as there are still some great new releases of well-known game series to come. Street Fighter 6 has already confidently set the bar very high. | Read review |
| GamesBeat | Mike Minotti | 100 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Those miniscule grips aside, this is a masterful fighting game experience that excels in all the ways you want it to. It’s another standout from Capcom, which has entered something of a new golden era thanks to its revitalization of Resident Evil and the broadening global appeal of Monster Hunter. Street Fighter 6 is further proof that Capcom is on top of the gaming world these days. | Read review |
| GameSkinny | Will Borger | 8 / 10 | 06-03-2023 | For every great thing Street Fighter 6 does — and there’s a lot of them — there’s some flaw, some annoyance, or a ridiculous microtransaction system. If you’re looking for a 2D fighting game to play online or with your friends, Street Fighter 6 is one of the best around. But almost everything around the fighting itself is flawed in a way it probably shouldn’t be. The fight is all, but we shouldn’t have to deal with all of this other stuff to enjoy it. | Read review |
| GameSpew | Richard Seagrave | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | Launching with a strong and varied roster of fighters and a range of modes that should satisfy most players, Street Fighter 6 is a triumph. The combat here is stronger than it’s ever been, and a serious effort has been made to make this the most accessible and inclusive fighting game yet. We still need to delve a little more into the game’s online offerings to give our full verdict, but based on everything we’ve seen so far, Street Fighter 6 is likely to be one of this year’s highlights for fighting game fans. | Read review |
| GameSpot | Jason Fanelli | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Capcom’s flagship fighter is back in form with intricate but approachable fighting mechanics and a feature-rich package. | Read review |
| GamesRadar+ | Andi Hamilton | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 offers the most flexible, versatile, and expressive combat seen in the series to date.

| Gaming Nexus | Joseph Moorer | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Capcom has given us a complete game right out of the box. The single player experiences are enormous. The online experience is perfect. Street Fighter lore is littered in every nook and cranny of this game. There are modes and modes within modes. This is one of the best Street Fighter games in the history of the franchise. If Capcom hurt you in the past, this is their apology. Street Fighter 6 is a new classic that people will be playing for years to come. | Read review |
| GamingBolt | Ravi Sinha | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is more than the sum of its individually excellent parts. It’s a return to form for a franchise that’s been on the back foot for years, and a stellar fighting game as a whole. | Read review |
| GamingTrend | Jack Zustiak, Abdul Saad | 95 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 takes the series to the next stage with a wildly fun fighting system that emphasizes personal choice. Each mainline Street Fighter tends to define its era of fighting games in some way, and Street Fighter 6 confidently steps forward to that next era. From its battle system to its bevvy of modes such as World Tour, it dives deep into everything that makes fighting games great. | Read review |
| Geek Culture | Jake Su | 9 / 10 | 06-06-2023 | Needless to say, Street Fighter 6 has set a new benchmark for the genre in more ways than one. The new Drive System injects a new sense of depth into an established formula, the roster is more than substantial to keep players busy, and the online netcode allows for true skill to shine through. Other than the slight misstep of the World Tour mode, everything else connects like a well-timed haymaker, and that’s an impressive feat to say the least. | Read review |
| Generación Xbox | Pedro del Pozo | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | The keys to Street Fighter 6 are undoubtedly three: Spectacular, spacious and accessible. Its combat is a marvel of fun and the Battle Hub looks to have us hooked for a long time, but if you just want to try it, play with friends from time to time and pass the story to a single player, the World Tour mode and the Modern control will delight you. Few buts we can put to the one who, at the moment, is crowned as King of the Fight in this 2023 that seems like one of the most interesting of the genre for almost a decade. Let Mortal Kombat 1 and Tekken 8 hold on tight, because Street Fighter 6 is here to win. | Read review |
| Gert Lush Gaming | Jim Smale | 9.4 / 10 | 06-05-2023 | Streetfighter 6 is a celebration of all things Streetfighter and is truly the evolution of the fighting brands rising back to the top. | Read review |
| God is a Geek | Sean Smith | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is without question the best fighting game package I have ever played, and will keep you going far longer than a one-on-one fighter has any right to be able to. A true classic. | Read review |
| GRYOnline.pl | Michał Grygorcewicz | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | The new Street Fighter 6 will satisfy everyone, from newcomers to the genre looking for a low entry threshold and a good single player to veterans hoping for esports depth and solid network code. | Read review |
| Guardian | Patrick Lum | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | With a flashy new array of combat moves and ‘modern’ controls that even beginners can use to create masterful moves, this is an addictive TKO | Read review |
| Hardcore Gamer | Cory Wells | 4.5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 modernizes the series and feels like a true evolution that hits the likes of Hyper Fighting, Third Strike and SF4. This is possibly the biggest swing the series has seen and it worked out. | Read review |
| Hey Poor Player | Andrew Thornton | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Capcom may have made significant mistakes in the development of Street Fighter V, but it’s clear they were determined not to repeat them with Street Fighter 6. I can’t remember the last time a fighting game offered such a complete package, with something for every type of player. Combine that with best-in-class mechanics and a visual identity that truly sets it apart, and Street Fighter 6 is everything fighting game fans have been dreaming of. There’s no need to put your quarter on the machine to save your spot anymore. With Street Fighter 6, we can all have next. | Read review |
| Hobby Consolas | Daniel Quesada | 92 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 has managed to renew itself in everything necessary to become an essential. His attention to detail, his sense of spectacle, his great control and a thousand other virtues make him a milestone for the fight. | Read review |
| IGN | Mitchell Saltzman | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the most feature-rich a Street Fighter has ever been at launch, but even beyond that, it’s roster of 18 characters is excellent, the new mechanics revitalize the one-on-one fighting formula, and it absolutely nails all of the little things that make for a stellar fighting game. | Read review |
| IGN Italy | Diego Cinelli | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Capcom once again sets a new standard for 2D fighting games. In addition to the advanced combat system and the excellent package of single-player modes, made up of numerous elements that find their balance in sharing the same resource (the Drive indicator), SF6 counts on more than a vast group of tutorials and alternative control schemes for every need. | Read review |
| IGN Spain | Adrián Suárez | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 confirms a solid and formidable start. Whether it’s your first fighting game or you’re a lover of the genre, go for it. | Read review |
| Impulsegamer | Paul Stuart | 4.9 / 5 stars | 06-11-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is arguably the best title of this brilliant series, an absolute joy to play with via new control schemes and leaves one breathless in execution. This is a must have game for fans both old and new to the series, and a crowning achievement in the evolution of the PS5. | Read review |
| INDIANTVCZ | Jakub Kadlus | 7 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a step forward in the fighting games genre—new mechanics, heroes, and accessibility for complete newcomers to the series. However, the novelty in the form of the World Tour turned out to be terrible. Outdated game design, uninteresting world, and quests. Although it could have been a significant part of the game that could have shot the genre to a new level, it’s just a dud mode that feels like a completely different studio working on it. | Read review |
| Kotaku | Kenneth Shepard | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | It’s a sublime fighter that makes smart changes that honor what makes the series great. | Read review |
| LevelUp | Fernando Salinas | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | In addition to having a competitive focus, Street Fighter 6 offers a variety of modes filled with content for all types of players. The diversity of characters, their improvements in online modes, and the new control system are some of the reasons that make Street Fighter 6 the strongest contender to become the best fighting game of this generation. | Read review |
| M3 | P-A Knutsson | 8 / 10 | 06-01-2023 | With fast and smooth control, stunning visuals and plenty of game modes, Street Fighter 6 is a new star on the fighting scene. As usual, it is difficult to predict how well-functioning and balanced the online part is, but the potential for something really good is there. If nothing else, hours of fun await you in the delightfully strange single-player campaign. | Read review |
| Merlin’in Kazanı | Samet Basri Taşlı | 90 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a great game and it erases the bad memories Street Fighter 5 left in our memories. Although the World Tour mode is weaker than I expected, it is a great game that has managed to exceed my expectations in other aspects. | Read review |
| Metro GameCentral | GameCentral | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | A far better launch experience than its predecessor, with an excellent fighting system and a wide range of options and features that transcend the usual genre traditions. | Read review |
| MonsterVine | Spencer Legacy | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a grand fighting game experience that just keeps building on the series’ strong foundation. Though the World Tour mode and new characters aren’t as stand-out as they could be, the core gameplay is excellent and there’s plenty to enjoy. | Read review |
| New Game Network | Eric Hall | 85 / 100 | 06-18-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a big improvement for the franchise, and a reminder that Capcom is the best in the genre. The gameplay is as crisp and engaging as it has ever been, and the amount of modes included in the game will keep players busy for quite some time. | Read review |
| Niche Gamer | NECRO XIII | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Ultimately, Street Fighter 6 delivers the fun and proves to be one of the most engaging fighting games of the year and of most recent memory. | Read review |
| NoobFeed | Azfar Rayan | 90 / 100 | 06-05-2023 | Street Fighter 6 has been beefed up to seem like a true next-gen fighting experience with a robust training mode and its revived control mechanism that attracts a wide variety of players. Despite World Tour being a great addition to the game, it requires further enhancements in the coming days, while the implementation of Rollback Netcode guarantees consistent performance in every match. The Drive mechanism and the overall presentation are friendly enough for beginners and offer what veterans need to keep them interested in a new game. | Read review |
| Oyungezer Online | Eren Eryürekli | 9 / 10 | 06-09-2023 | While Street Fighter 6 is bolder and more accessible than ever and packed with content. Although it’s single player open world-ish venture is a bit of a chore, meaty new elements and a great roster almost makes up for that. Flourishing and dazzling visuals with killer soundtrack also worth to mention. It’s a dream comes true for every fighting game fan. | Read review |
| Paste Magazine | Garrett Martin | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 should be on your fight card. It’s the new standard in fighting game excellence. | Read review |
| PC Gamer | Mollie Taylor | 89 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Minor technical issues and questionable monetisation scuff what is otherwise one of the best fighting games we’ve seen in the last decade. | Read review |
| PC Invasion | Anthony Yates | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the complete package and offers heaps of content, whether you’re competitive or casual. World Tour is a surprisingly strong addition to the single-player experience, and the series has never been more approachable. If you ever wanted to ‘get good’ at a fighting game but never felt you had the tools, now is the time. | Read review |
| PCGamesN | Christian Vaz | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | This is the first Street Fighter game in a long time where it feels like players of all skill levels are welcome. While World Tour mode is disappointing, the sheer scope of SF6 means you don’t need to wait for the inevitable Ultra Edition before jumping in. | Read review |
| PCMag | Jeffrey L. Wilson | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | With option-rich mechanics, community-centric online features, numerous entertaining modes, and excellent netcode, Street Fighter 6 is a fighting game both casual and hard-core genre fans will love. | Read review |
| PlayStation Universe | Neil Bolt | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 comes out of its corner swinging and delivers a three-hit combo of modes that will leave fight fans floored. | Read review |

| PowerUp! | Charbel Asmar | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | At launch, Street Fighter 6 is set to take the fighting game genre to another level | Read review |
| Press Start | James Mitchell | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 rights the wrongs of its past with multiple modes for every player and strong battle systems like no other. It invites new players into the fold with well implemented, simpler control schemes, without losing sight of the hardcore player. The World Tour mode won’t be for everyone, but Street Fighter 6 stands tall as one of the best fighters Capcom has made. | Read review |
| PSX Brasil | Ivan Nikolai Barkow Castilho | 95 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is another Capcom hit. It’s a complete package, offering plenty of content and accessibility for every type of player. The fighting mechanics are varied, fun and take a long time to master. The World Tour mode is interesting and offers something varied for the series, even if it has some issues. | Read review |
| Push Square | Sammy Barker | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an absolute humdinger of a sequel. | Read review |
| Rectify Gaming | Unknown | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is the most casual, and accessible minded fighting game, without sacrificing any depth for the hardcore players. | Read review |
| Reno Gazette-Journal | Jason Hidalgo | 9 / 10 | 06-05-2023 | The Street Fighter team has really gone the extra mile with Street Fighter 6 and it shows. Its new World Tour campaign provides hours of fun single-player content while also teaching newcomers to the game. The new modern controls, meanwhile, provide a fresh and more accessible alternative to Street Fighter’s classic control scheme while the new Drive mechanics add more depth to the psychology of fights — including the cat-and-mouse game between players. It’s a must-have whether you’re a Street Fighter veteran or a newcomer to the franchise. | Read review |
| Rice Digital | Pete Davison | Recommended | 06-05-2023 | On the whole, then, World Tour is a very good way to enjoy Street Fighter 6, particularly if you’re someone who typically plays solo. There are aspects which could be better — the non-Metro City locations you visit as part of your “tour” feel rather underbaked, for one, since most of them are just a very small “room” you can visit rather than a full open-world environment like Metro City — but in the grand scheme of things, World Tour is a brilliant example of how to build a compelling single-player mode into a fighting game. | Read review |
| Rock, Paper, Shotgun | Lewis Parker | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | Smooth online matches and an impressively in-depth story already put Street Fighter 6 leagues above the competition. | Read review |
| Saudi Gamer | Unknown | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | A great new entry that caters to both the hardcore and casuals, just missing some modes and more characters that keeps it from perfection. | Read review |
| Screen Rant | Jason Hon | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | With everything that Street Fighter 6 includes, it’s set the bar incredibly high for future fighting games. Online matches played flawlessly during the review period. The Battle Hub is an example of how online multiplayer game lobbies should be with a space where players can interact and even play other games together. A well-balanced roster of characters and new control options helps Street Fighter 6 stand tall as an excellent entry point for fighting games, while also containing the depth and precise gameplay that pros expect. | Read review |
| SECTOR.sk | Vladimír Kvitkovič | 9 / 10 | 06-21-2023 | IN SF6 you will enjoy street fights like never before. The game is a fresh leap from Capcom in the sea of & 8203;& 8203;fighting games. Full of fun, with a lot of content, offline and online challenges. | Read review |
| Shacknews | TJ Denzer | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | All-in-all, this game rekindled my love of the franchise, and I can’t wait to see how Street Fighter 6 grows over time. | Read review |
| Sirus Gaming | Ray Remigio | 8 / 10 | 06-06-2023 | Summing it up, Street Fighter 6 is great, and well worth the price tag considering the game modes available to players and the customization options and story mode in World Tour, the classic Street Fighter runs in knowing characters’ stories in Arcade Mode and the inevitable online battles which await you. In the immortal words of Joe Bob Briggs, “Four stars, check it out!” | Read review |
| Slant Magazine | Justin Clark | 5 / 5 stars | 06-13-2023 | And that’s just scratching the surface of the game’s pleasures. There’s the professional match commentary, the surprising character details and bond system in World Tour, the fabulously nonbinary tournament emcee Eternity, the return of bonus stages, the battle-rap style intros for Versus matches, the create-a-character’s intricacies actually affecting gameplay, the character-specific voice lines during the Arcade mode’s final boss fights. Which is to say, Street Fighter 6 is the most feature-rich, welcoming, and inclusive package ever crafted for a fighting game—a stylish reassertion of creative dominance for the series that started it all, and an endlessly rewarding new foundation for its future. The next generation of fighting games starts right here. | Read review |
| Softpedia | Cosmin Vasile | 8.5 / 10 | 05-31-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is not perfect, but it is revolutionary. It manages to cater to so many tastes and expectations, without dropping the ball that the developers deserve all the praise they get. Of course, some of the fan favorites all not in the initial roster, but this probably will be addressed by the nowadays mandatory Battle Pass. | Read review |
| SpazioGames | Silvio Mazzitelli | 9.5 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is simply one of the best fighting games ever made, with ton of contents and an incredibly fun gameplay. | Read review |
| Stevivor | Hamish Lindsay | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | With a flashy and visually spectacular art style, excellent music and a healthy dose of self-deprecating humour, Street Fighter 6 should be on the radar of anybody looking to take a swing at a titan of the genre at its best. | Read review |
| TechRaptor | Robert Scarpinito | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is one of the easiest on-ramps to the deep world of fighting games, appealing to casual players and veterans alike. With a diverse roster, meaty gameplay, and flashy animations, this will be a FGC staple for years to come. | Read review |

| The Games Machine | Danilo Dellafrana | 9.3 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is Capcom getting back on its feet after the previous chapter’s half-slide, taking note of what was wrong and finding the courage to further refine the combat system of its most famous series, imagining convincing mechanics and expressing a desire to open up fighting to the widest possible audience. The result is absolutely recommended. | Read review |
| The Jimquisition | James Stephanie Sterling | 9 / 10 | 06-25-2023 | Street Fighter 6 has made me the happiest I’ve been with a game in quite some time. As somebody who always wanted to play fighting games but whose neurodivergence prevented them, the new Modern controls and consistent approachability is simply joyous. Brimming with personality, immensely gratifying, and packed with a shocking amount of content, I’m still rather shocked by exactly how hooked I’ve become. It’s just a shame Capcom’s insistence on pernicious monetization lets the welcoming effort down, because besides that I have no notes. Street Fighter 6 is the fighting game I needed. | Read review |
| The Outerhaven Productions | Unknown | 4 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an easy day-one buy for the hardcore eSports player base, but casual players might want to wait for a year or more for a more complete game before buying. | Read review |
| TheSixthAxis | Nick Petrasiti | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 doesn’t need recommending to hardcore fighting fans – you all already know how incredible it is – but do I recommend it for more casual players? Street Fighter 6 has a real sense of community, welcoming all players old and new, teaching new tricks and providing something for those that just want a bit of fun. This is truly a fighting game for everyone. | Read review |
| TrueGaming | Unknown | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street fighter 6 will keep players busy for long hours thanks to its fresh and innovative fighting system, and its feature-rich content the World Tour mode Finally, friendly controls that welcomes new players to the series are the cherry on top of the cake. | Read review |
| Twinfinite | Keenan McCall | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | It’s the epitome of what a fighting game should be, and I can’t wait to see how the series builds off of this return to form | Read review |
| Unboxholics | Θέμης Μπολτσής | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an extremely rich package that successfully manages to win over new players thanks to its new and sophisticated control system, while also winking at veterans, with its balanced, strategic and deep gameplay. It includes everything Street Fighter 5 did, while the development team has added an entire Street Fighter open world RPG and an online MMO on top of it. So, just like that, Capcom’s positive…combo continues! | Read review |
| Use a Potion | Unknown | 10 / 10 | 06-06-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an outstanding fighting experience that complements its stellar combat mechanics with addictive game modes. World Tour Mode is an absolute blast for those who want a story-driven experience, whilst the Battle Hub is fully fleshed out to keep competitive players coming back for years on end. Add to that the improved accessibility that makes it easy for newbies to dive right in, the wonderfully vibrant visuals that bring the action to life, and the fantastic roster of characters made up of iconic favourites and new faces, and it’ll be clear that Street Fighter 6 exceeds the high standards of the series. Well done, Capcom… you’ve delivered ANOTHER banger. | Read review |
| VG247 | Alex Donaldson | Recommended | 05-30-2023 | It’s a must-have. And it might just be the most compelling overall fighting game package of all time. | Read review |
| VGC | Jordan Middler | 5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | With the three titans of the fighting game space all releasing mainline entries this year, competition is going to be stiff, but Capcom is putting its best foot forward. The publisher’s incredible run continues with one of the most feature-rich, stylish, and enjoyable entries in franchise history. | Read review |
| VGChartz | Daniel Parker | 8 / 10 | 07-04-2023 | Updating the series with fresh mechanics, game modes, and resources to learn the game’s intricacies, Street Fighter 6 not only raises the bar for the series, but the genre as a whole. | Read review |
| Video Chums | A.J. Maciejewski | 9 / 10 | 06-06-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an incredible experience that any fan of fighting games will thoroughly appreciate. With 3 very different modes of play that’ll appeal to basically anyone, I can easily say that this is one must-have fighter. | Read review |
| WayTooManyGames | Leonardo Faria | 9 / 10 | 06-12-2023 | At the end of the day, what matters is that Street Fighter 6 did manage to overcome a ton of odds. It might have an issue or two when it comes to the visual fidelity of its campaign mode, as well as some odd artistic decisions, but as a complete package, there’s little to complain about. It’s Capcom, yet again, delivering. Great controls, buttery smooth performance, and one of the best single-player campaigns ever put in a fighting game are but a few of the highlights in this roaring success of a title. | Read review |
| Wccftech | Francesco De Meo | 10 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is in a league of its own, and one of the best fighting games in decades. | Read review |
| We Got This Covered | David James | 3 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 delivers a deep, complex, and satisfying fighting game bristling with fun new characters and an excellent multiplayer mode. Unfortunately, all of that’s shackled to a truly terrible single-player RPG that stands as one of the most embarrassing things Capcom has released in years. If you’re here for online play, you’ll love it. If you want single-player action, stay far away. | Read review |
| WellPlayed | Zach Jackson | 9 / 10 | 05-31-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is a remarkably satisfying, stylish and approachable fighter that not only redefines a legacy fighting series but an entire genre. | Read review |
| Windows Central | Miles Dompier | 4.5 / 5 stars | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 is an exceptional entry in the franchise that reminds me why I love fighting games. Freshly introduced mechanics shake up the familiar dance of previous titles and notably improve the moment-to-moment gameplay. Capcom continues to demonstrate precisely how a team can triumphantly transform established IP. The blood, sweat, and style pouring from nearly every moment in Street Fighter 6 will delight newcomers and veterans alike. | Read review |
| Worth Playing | Cody Medellin | 9 / 10 | 05-30-2023 | Street Fighter 6 succeeds in its ambition to cram some big things into one fighting game. Battle Hub may be silly, but it has a lot more personality and more to do than most other titles with their own online lobbies. Fighting Ground does a great job of showing off the new roster and improvements to the fighting engine, while placing an equal amount of attention on both offline and online players. World Tour makes for a somewhat nonsensical yet addictive adventure that can serve as a good basis for a full-fledged Street Fighter RPG. All of this is tied together with a presentation that does well in improving what came before it, only with more fidelity and flash. As stated at the beginning of this review, fighting game fans are going to have a good year, and Street Fighter 6 is an excellent component of that. | Read review |
| Xbox Achievements | Richard Walker | 80 / 100 | 05-30-2023 | As Street Fighter approaches its 36th year, Capcom proves that it still has what it takes to make a cracking fighting game. Street Fighter 6 not only feels fresh and vital thanks to its excellent World Tour mode and online Battle Hub, but it cements the series’ credentials as one of the best around. | Read review |
| ZTGD | Jae Lee | 9 / 10 | 06-20-2023 | SFVI’s launch marks an impressive effort by Capcom, having learned from previous failings and while the lackluster World Tour mode and gross battle pass stains an otherwise spotless package, it still shines brightly as the new standard for fighters to come. | Read review |
