Owing to a large-scale data breach, we’ve been seeing a bunch of Capcom-related leaks these past few days, leaking information about everything from Resident Evil Village’s planned release window to Monster Hunter Rise and Stories 2 being planned for PC, and much more. We now have another one here, this time related to Street Fighter.
As shared by @pokeprotos on Twitter, as per this leak, Street Fighter 6 is being planned for launch on the PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, Xbox One, and PC. The game’s cross-gen nature doesn’t come as much of a surprise, though it is a pleasant surprise to see that unlike Street Fighter 5, the upcoming sequel won’t be a PlayStation console exclusive (if this leak is accurate). It’s also a bit of a bummer that no Nintendo Switch version of the game is planned.
Of course, as is the case with any leaks, take this with a pinch of salt for now, at least until we have official confirmation on these details from Capcom- which might take a while.
Earlier this year, reports emerged that Street Fighter 6 had originally been planned for a 2021 release, but got internally delayed due to development troubles. Not long afterward, Capcom veteran and longtime Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono left the company.
