Street Fighter 6 Preorders Open With A Big Early Bird Discount If You Know Where To Look

Fighting game fans rejoice, for the latest installment in a mega-popular fighting franchise is now available for pre-order. If you strike quick, you can even catch it at a discount! Yes, we're talking about Capcom's Street Fighter 6, from the franchise that has practically defined the fighting game genre by introducing special attacks and combos. Preorders even get some special bonuses.

Street Fighter 6 is likely one of the most anticipated fighting games of 2023. The previous major installment in the series was released seven years ago in 2016, so fans are particularly eager for the new incarnation. Add in custom characters and new game modes you have a recipe for excitement.

Those new game modes include Battle Hub and World Tour. Battle Hub is a social environment, allowing players to meet up with each other and even challenge each other to fights. World Tour is a single player story mode that lets players explore Metro City.

The title is set to release on June 2, 2023, with three editions available. Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate. The Standard package is just the base game. Deluxe will get you the Year One character pass, which includes four additional characters, an outfit for each (specifically, Outfit 1 Color 3-10), and 4,200 Drive Tickets. Those who want to drop the cash on the Ultimate edition will get the Year 1 Ultimate Pass. That Ultimate pass includes everything the Deluxe pass has plus two more outfits (Outfit 2 and Outfit 3) with ten colors each, two additional stages, and the Drive Ticket bonus is bumped to 7,700.
