In the past few months, CAPCOM has been showing more of Street Fighter 6, but has primarily focused on the launch roster and the competitive side of things. World Tour Mode has been sidelined a bit, but the Japanese publisher seems ready to show more of it.
During a new Japanese livestream that aired a few hours ago, CAPCOM provided a new look at World Tour Mode and its silly fun, starting from the character creator that was already available in the beta version of the game. With the main character and their rival starting their journey at the same time, World Tour Mode has some distinct Pokémon vibes that will possibly make it more engaging even for those who aren’t that much into fighting games.
Thankfully, today’s livestream won’t be the last Street Fighter 6 World Tour mode showcase coming in the near future, as it is only the first one in a series of four. With the basics such as character creation out of the way, it will be very interesting to see what will be shown next and if it will indeed be something that will make fans fall in love with the franchise even more.
As mentioned above, CAPCOM has been showing quite a bit of Street Fighter 6 in the past few weeks, with multiple developer matches showcasing characters such as Zangief, Marisa, Lily, E. Honda, Cammy, and Manon. Characters like Dee Jay and JP were shown at the end of last year, while some of the other characters did not need much of a showcase, as closed beta participants were able to try them out in the two rounds of testing held last year.
Street Fighter 6 is set to release on June 2nd, 2023 on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. No matter the format, players will be able to play against everyone else thanks to full cross-platform play support.
