One of the best Street Fighter games in a long time. I won't pretend that I'm amazing at these games, but I always enjoy playing each new entry online and with friends. SF6 adds so many great features that just keeps you playing again and again.
World Tour is a great mode for casual players, or if you're just looking to experience the world of SF in a new way. Its not the best single player experience a fighting game has offered (I still think MK9's story mode is the best I've ever experienced in a fighting game), but it is, at the very least, unique and offers more than 99% of fighting games nowadays. Creating your avatar and customizing their moves, style, outfits, and more makes for a fun experience. The cutscenes are very entertaining and each character comes to life spectacularly.
The battle hub is a neat way to challenge other players' avatars and provides a cool way to play different modes with people online outside of the usual competitive or casual matches. I didn't spend a ton of time in this mode, but I did enjoy it from a conceptual level.
The Fighting Grounds are where players will most likely spend most of their time as it holds the usual arcade, local versus, and online modes. On PC, the input lag is usually never an issue (as long as you both have good connections). Crossplay is also here, which is always a great touch.
Each fighter is very unique from each other, which is something SF always gets right. The roster is here pretty damn big for a modern day fighting game, with characters both familiar and brand new. I really enjoyed not only the returning fighters, but also all the new ones. They all provide such unique and fun playstyles. Players new and old will not struggle to find at least a handful of characters that they will like playing as.
My only real complaint about SF6 is the weird and eye rolling choice of giving this game a battle pass. Its one thing for "free" games to have a paid battle pass, but for a full $60 game to have one? I'm sorry but thats just greedy. Capcom has been absolutely killing it lately, so it just sucks to see them do this kind of thing with another banger title.
Overall tho, SF6 is pretty much all someone could ask for in a fighting game experience. Its got something for pretty much everyone to enjoy, from casuals to competitive folk alike. Its a good time to be a SF and Capcom fan.
