Capcom announces first and final Street Fighter 6 Open Beta

Street Fighter 6 has so far been met with a great deal of optimism. Whether it be thanks to the many details shared online by the publisher, or due to the multiple closed betas, excitement surrounding SF6 seems to be at an all-time high less than one month from the game’s arrival. For those who did not manage to get into the closed beta, an open beta for Street Fighter 6 is set to go live just weeks out from launch.

Taking to their website, Capcom announced the first and final Street fighter 6 open beta, saying “STREET FIGHTER 6 is to be released on Friday, June 2, 2023, but we know you simply cannot wait! Because so many people sent a request during the recent closed beta test, we will now carry out an open beta, allowing more and more fans to try things out.”

Offering additional details on this beta, they continued, “The open beta will feature the same content as the closed beta test conducted in December 2022. The release version will be further adjusted and will feature updated character balance, etc. We ask for your understanding.”

In the age of live service titles, and continually updated games, the concept of demos has somewhat fallen to the wayside. Capcom offering multiple betas – both open and closed – is in many ways the next-best-thing to a full-on demo, and so it is exciting to get one final proper look at Street Fighter 6 ahead of its release on the 2nd of June.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
