Want to see Street Fighter 6 at its best? Check out this dev gameplay



It is good to have flashy trailers that basically exhibit an artwork fashion, or that basically dig deep into an aesthetic. However to actually perceive a preventing recreation – I imply, actually know the way it’ll truly really feel on the stick – you have to watch those who know what they’re doing have a battle.

Typically, with preventing video games, the actually respectable gamers will not essentially be the flashiest. For those who watch a high-level Tekken recreation, for instance, it is plenty of footsie work and backdashing adopted up by some impressively lengthy (however not that over-the-top) combo work. The identical goes for Road Fighter 6, it appears: the character trailers we have seen thus far enjoy massive bombastic strikes, flashy supers, and jaunty digicam angles that exhibit new and returning forged members – however an precise battle between two devs? That is the actual deal.

I am unable to imagine one little battle has me so hyped.

Within the video above, you may clock veteran Brit Cammy battling it out with French newcomer Manon. Cammy gamers will recognise some signature strikes within the combine (Spiral Arrow, Cannon Spike, and Hooligan Mixture), mixed with some attention-grabbing new methods realised through her Tremendous Arts. Manon, very a lot into her dance and catwalking, forces Cammy to go together with her footwork (the place we see Manège Doré, Renversé, and Pas de Deux in motion), ending one combo in a fantastic tremendous that sees each do a routine earlier than the Brit is unceremoniously tripped up, faceplanting the concrete.

This video, taking the type of a fast three-round format, and made with direct seize footage taken instantly by the builders, has acquired me extra hyped for Road Fighter 6 than any of the opposite movies I’ve seen to this point. Why? As a result of this appears to be like like the sport I will be taking part in when it comes out – no hyperactive cuts will take me from move-to-move, no zoomed in supers, no fashionable pans to a taunt. Simply good, trustworthy preventing.

And, my God, does it look good. The little delays you’ll be able to feed into Cammy’s strikes to play thoughts video games along with your opponents, the great artstyle that basically involves life with the fluidity of battle behind it, that wonderful soundtrack? Forgot your costly advertising and marketing plan, Capcom, and simply give me extra dev fights.
