Just as it wrapped up Street Fighter 6’s Year 3 DLC plan with the release of Ingrid, Capcom has announced that the fighting game has hit a brand-new milestone, having sold more than 7 million copies worldwide. The title is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2, and the sales were likely split quite well among all of the platforms.
“An achievement all thanks to you,” wrote Capcom on social media. “We’re eternally grateful that Street Fighter 6 has now sold over 7 million copies worldwide!”
Street Fighter 6 was originally released back in 2023 on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S. The fighting game eventually made its way to Nintendo Switch 2 last year, as one of the console’s launch-week games.
With Year 3 characters all having come out, Capcom has also revealed details about what Street Fighter 6 players can expect from future DLC releases. Through a trailer released over the weekend, the company has confirmed that the fighting game will get four new additions to its roster – Yasmine, Arjun, Bosch, and Final Fantasy 7’s Tifa Lockhart.
All four characters will be newcomers to the Street Fighter franchise. Aside from Tifa, all of the characters are original creations. Capcom has also revealed a few details about each of the fighters. Yasmine, for instance, is a high schooler from the Philippines who has decided to join Street Fighter 6’s antics as part of her quest to find her long-lost Kuya. The character makes use of a crescent-shaped karambit knife in her combat style.
Arjun is equipped with extraordinary lung capacity, along with yogic breathing, giving him the ability to engage with his opponents in fist fights with his unique Bare-knuckle Yoga techniques. Originally a police officer in India, Arjun was accused of killing a colleague, which has led him to live his life on the run while still trying to hunt down the true murderer.
Bosch, hailing from Nayshall, is on a quest to find the true meaning of strength. In the process, he has already become a proficient martial artist, winning a sacred tournament before the events of the game. He is now in Metro City to train under Luke so that he can incorporate modern combat techniques in his ancient martial arts style.
Much like in Final Fantasy 7, Tifa in Street Fighter 6 will make use of her Zangan-ryu martial arts. She ends up in the world of the fighting game after being mysteriously transported away from her own adventures. In the process, she has decided to bond with the brand-new fighters she is meeting in her new adventure. In gameplay terms, Tifa is going to be a close-range fighter and can make use of unique powers dubbed Abilities.
Year 4 characters will start coming out this year, with Summer marking the release of Yasmine. Arjun will follow in Autumn 2026, and after a break, Tifa is slated for release in early 2027. She will be followed by Bosch in Spring 2027. Along with these roster additions, the Year 4 Character Pass also includes four characters’ colors for their respective Outfit 1 options, along with 3,000 Drive Tickets.
