There's been speculation that a release date was imminent after Street Fighter 6 was recently rated in Korea as, in most cases, when a game is rated in the country, some kind of announcement or reveal is due soon after. We also already knew that the Street Fighter sequel was expected to be released sometime in 2023 and that Capcom was due to be in attendance at the awards ceremony, so this probably didn't come as too much of a surprise. 

We've had quite a few insights into the upcoming fighting game as of late. Back in October, the Street Fighter closed beta went live, and for some, continued for longer than Capcom intended after hackers found a way to keep playing after the beta had ended. The beta turned out to be the gift that kept on giving though after players discovered that they could make the most unhinged characters in the game's character creator.

Street Fighter 6 will be available to play starting June 2 on PS4, PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X.
