In addition to World Tour, Street Fighter 6 will also come with Fighting Ground and Battle Hub. Of course, those looking for more traditional fighter offerings won’t have to look too far either. Specifics are currently unknown, with Capcom promising more details on the mode in the “near future”, but we do know you’ll be playing this mode with your own custom created avatar, and “carve out your own legend on the streets” in a mode that Capcom says “defies genre labels.” Colour us intrigued, to say the very least.

Set in Metro City, World Tour will let players loose in a fully and freely explorable open world-ish environment.

This is easily one of the biggest and most intriguing new introductions in Street Fighter 6. World Tour is a brand-new narrative-driven single player story mode- and it’s not the sort of story mode you’d expect to see in Street Fighter, or in any fighting game, for that matter. Major titles like multiple Resident Evil games, Devil May Cry 5, Monster Hunter Rise, and the upcoming Pragmata, as well as several minor ones like Capcom Arcade Stadium, Ghosts ‘ Goblins Resurrected, and more have used the engine, and as you may have guessed (and as leaks have claimed since earlier this year), Street Fighter 6 is also being developed on the RE Engine. Since the introduction of the RE Engine with Resident Evil 7 in 2017, it has, unsurprisingly, become a company-wide development engine for Capcom, being used in a variety of games. Here, that’s exactly what we’ll be talking about, as we go through some of the most crucial details you should know about the game. That showing, combined with information that’s emerged on the game from other official sources since then, has given us a solid idea of what to expect from the fighting game, and one thing that’s become clear by now is that Street Fighter 6 is shaping up to be a major step forward for Capcom’s beloved franchise.

The recent State of Play was a big one – probably the biggest we’ve ever had – and one of several major upcoming games to get a meaty showing during the showcase was Capcom’s Street Fighter 6.
