Update: Lace up your gloves, because the Street Fighter 6 Open Beta is on now! It runs until Monday, May 22nd at 3AM AEST so you’ve got all weekend to check out a small portion of the game before it launches on June 2nd. Grab it from the below:
Capcom has announced that Street Fighter 6 is getting one last beta before it releases on June 2nd, this time an open one for everybody to get a taste of the action.
This new open beta will have the same content as Street Fighter 6’s 2nd closed beta, and will be different from the currently available demo of the game which focused mostly on the new World Tour mode. That means players will have access to eight characters across a heap of modes and playable content, including six stages to brawl on. The open beta will also be cross-platform enabled meaning you’ll be able to duke it out with your mates no matter what platform you’re on.
The Street Fighter 6 Open Beta will run from Friday, May 19 at 5PM AEST to Monday, May 22nd at 3AM AEST.
To participate, Capcom says you’ll need to register a CAPCOM ID and link the account of the platform you plan on playing on, which you can do ahead of time by going to the Street Fighter 6 Open Beta page right here.
