Street Fighter 6 Collector's Edition - Xbox

I have played a lot of fighting games. The hardest part about playing fighting games is the better you get, the less anyone who doesn't own the game wants to play with you. SF6 fixes this problem by adding 3 different control schemes and a handicap option. This game also offers new unique competitive options for more seasoned vets of the game. I'm a big third strike fan and loved parrying. I'm happy to see that come back as well as the addition of drive rush. Every character feels balanced save for 2 that only need slight changes to come up to the level of the rest of the cast. Already the pro combos and matches that have been held show this game will have some hype moments going forward. Excited to see what more time with the game brings to the competitive scene. SF6 keeps arcade mode, has a training feature that walks you through how to play characters, a combo challenge, frame data built into the training mode, and excellent net code. Overall online has not been an issue when avoiding the HUB, and setting matchmaking to only allow 3-5 connection strength. I won't talk about the hub too much as I have yet to spend a lot of time there. Everytime I have entered it so far I have been kicked out for bad conncetion. Unsure if this is capcom or my internet. Overall it seems like a neat idea, and there are cabinets to try of old arcade games. While Nintendo would sell you these games individually as a collection, and capcom has done the same in the past, it is nice to see them bundled on the game. The single player story mode feels like a proof of concept more than a complete product. It runs fine on Xbox as well as PS5 and PS4. Training under the different masters and going through the story is fun, but there feels like a lack of meaningful content after 10 hours of doing the gameplay loop. Can't take too many points off as story modes in fighting games have not tried anything beyond a movie that you fight battles around in the past, so even this unique proof of concept is preferable to another Mortal Kombat single player experience. Performance wise the game plays great with no problems on all platforms. On ps4 the load screens are longer and more noticeable, but while in a fight it gets the job done. I'd say ps5 is your best choice if you only want one copy, or do what I did and get the digital version on psn that gives you both. I also bought the Colectors edition for the Xbox and I cannot reiterate enough how great it runs and how good it looks. Great entry into a legendary series. I can't give it a 10 because of the fact that there isn't a 10 rating scale. If you were looking for a cheap hobby, fighting games aren't that. If you were looking for a good story mode, I can't think of a fighting game that rises to the level of good story. But SF6 has a balanced cast, great netcode, interesting gameplay mechanics, and a character for every fighting game fan to enjoy. If asked which console would I recommend this on? Xbox or Playstation? I would honestly say it depends on you. What do I mean by that? Which controller are you most comfortable with? Fighting games in general require you to be comfortable using the controller. Hence the reason why they have made so many different styles of controllers and arcade sticks for consoles. If you ask graphically, I can say both PS5 and Xbox are in the same realm when it comes to graphics of this game to the naked eye. I couldn't see any differences when it came to the graphics or frame rate. All I can say is that as I played Ryu on the Xbox version and then played it on the PS5 version, I was more accurate with the combos on the Xbox than the PS5. Like I said its preference more than a recommendation. I hope my review helps you in explaining the game, features and playability. This game is definitely a great piece added on to my Street Fighter collection. Thanks Capcom for another great game!

The best game of 2023 that got released but i know there will be next a super street fighter 6 thej steet fighter 6 arcade edition then ultra street fighter 6 i know how capcom makes their money grom DLC dont buy every DLC you see wait until caocom releases their last street fighter 6 and get all the DLC unlocked in a cheaper price

Love the packaging for the SF6 collectors edition. The figures are great and all the other inserts. You wont be disappointed. Highly recommended to any SF fan.

Street Fighter 6 is back and better than ever. CAPCOM is knocking it out of the park with their latest releases!

I’m really loving this game so far. Its good for new, old, casual, and competitive players.
