Street Fighter 5‘s vanilla release was met with mixed reviews from critics and fans, with many citing the same issues. But perseverance from Capcom showed us how a mediocre game can transform into a classic through its lifetime. It had to contend with a rough launch and its producer exiting the series after 30 years. While Street Fighter 5 is fondly thought of today, it wasn’t always that way. It also appears to feature a custom character – whether this is the one and same character you use in the Battle Hub remains to be seen.Street Fighter 5 was initially released on February 16, 2016, and as of November 29, 2021, the game has added its final DLC character. Again, little is known about this mode right now but it is described by Capcom as an ‘immersive single player mode’ and looks quite unlike anything seen in previous Street Fighter titles. This appears to be an open world hub based on Metro City (the setting for arcade classic Final Fight) where you can meet characters from Street Fighter and its extended universe, punch bins and pick fights with the inhabitants. If this is the case, it is similar to the lobbies found in Arc Systemworks titles, although there are a few other things that catch the eye – are those classic Capcom fighting games on some of the cabinets? Can they be played? No doubt there will be more information in the coming months.įinally, and most interestingly, there’s the World Tour mode. There’s only been one, short clip of the ‘Battle Hub’, so everything is being extrapolated from minimal footage, but it appears to be a kind of online lobby that you can roam with what appears to be a custom avatar, sitting down at arcade machines and challenging other players to matches. First up is the ‘Fighting Ground’, which appears to be where you can play local multiplayer, fight the A.I and, more than likely, is where the training modes will be found, with Capcom stating that ‘all of the modes found in Street Fighter 5 can now be found in Fighting Ground’, so expect the usual arcade ladders and survival modes here too.

Capcom has confirmed that gameplay will be split up into three separate and considerable Street Fighter 6 game modes.
