Street
Fighter 6 Rollback Netcode / Crossplay Confirmed, New Gameplay & Details Roundup!
|
|
|
|
 The
latest Street Fighter 6
details
and gameplay have been pouring in over the past week... and
especially in the past 24 hours! It's only been a week and a
half since Capcom debuted SF6's gameplay reveal
trailer, and there's already a playable demo version available
(at the live Summer Games Fest event) that some lucky few have gotten
their hands on. To catch up on the very latest, here's some newly
confirmed information. For starters, Rollback Netcode and Crossplay
(between
PlayStation 5/4, Xbox Series X|S, & PC) have been confirmed for
Street Fighter 6. Additionally, Capcom also clarified, "The
rollback will not be the same as SFV". While more details are
coming in, enjoy some brand new gameplay footage and early impressions
from several excellent YouTubers...

Maximilian
Dood covers the basic mechanics of Street Fighter 6 and gives
his early impressions of the parry system, Drive System, the game's
neutral, and runs through some basic combos for each of the characters.
And if you're a sucker for quality, you can enjoy Max's video in full 4K
and 60fps!

Arekkz Gaming
posted a video demonstrating all Supers & Super Arts for the 4
playable characters available in the early demo version. As we confirmed
in our previous article for Guile's
reveal trailer, characters in Street Fighter 6 will have access
to Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 super moves. When HP is low, Super Arts
change to Critical Arts.
|
|
Theory Fighter also posted 8 minutes of Street Fighter 6
gameplay with a focus on learning the game's parrying system. There's a
lot to unpack here!
|
|
French SoulCalibur world champion Kayane posted her own Street
Fighter 6 video with some high quality footage along with her early
impressions.
|
|
 THE
FINER DETAILS! 
|
|
In Street Fighter 6, characters enter "Burnout" state
when their Drive gauge is depleted (which will slowly regenerate over
time). On Twitter, @mionzinhos notes how
Chun-Li's stance change while in the "Burnout" state is a
reference to her original SF2 stance. Interesting!
|
|
As pointed out by @sephi22 on Twitter, Chun-Li's pose on the Street
Fighter 6 character selection screen is a direct homage to an iconic
piece of artwork by Kinu Nishimura! It's amazing that Capcom is packing so
much awesome fan service and references into Street Fighter 6, especially
this early!
|
|
@SaikyoKugen on Twitter shared some Street Fighter 6 victory
screens for Chun-Li, Ryu, Jamie, and Luke. In addition to reading some
character-specific win quotes, these screens provide a look at SF6's
rematch menu options, which include quick access for changing characters,
stage, and match settings.
|
|
Street Fighter 6 world champion Alex Valle also weighs in to
discuss SF6's parry mechanic. As you can see in the video, the
button for parry can be held down to absorb multiple hits. This has much
easier execution than SFIII's parry system requiring players to
"tap forward / down" at the moment of the opponent's attack.
|
|
In the Twitter video above, Vincenzo Lettera demonstrates how Jamie lets
down his long hair after consuming four drinks. Every
time Jamie takes a sip of his flask, he goes up one level and gains new
skills. At the fourth level, with
his hair down, he becomes a beast!
|
|
Earlier this week, Capcom revealed SF6's "Game
Face" feature allowing players to change their character's facial
expression on the versus screen. Above are Chun-Li's four facial expressions, courtesy of
@wolfgangxo. Ryu appears unamused. 
|
|
Next up... Jamie's four Game Face expressions on the versus screen posted
by @misodiru. His second one is definitely YouTube-thumbnail worthy for
any kind of reaction video. lol.
|
|
Street Fighter 6's presentation quality is unprecedented and by far
the more polished of the series. As @emezie points out in the video above,
all characters have two completely different versions of their "intro
walk" animations during the versus screen cinematic!
|
|
Last but definitely not least... Capcom shared a Twitter video yesterday
revealing the first-ever taunt animations in the game. Luke mockingly
shouting "Hadouken" while performing his own take of Ryu's
iconic special move is one of the most hilarious things I've seen in a Street
Fighter game. 
SF6 definitely has plenty of personality and humor to go around. Can't
wait to see more!
