Street Fighter 6 Unleashes Stylish New Outfits for Base Roster: Release Date and Exciting Details Revealed!

Capcom has shared an exciting update on Street Fighter 6, revealing the release date for the highly anticipated third set of outfits for the base roster. Since its successful launch in June, Street Fighter 6 has become a standout in the fighting game genre, earning critical acclaim and a devoted player base. Capcom continues to bolster the game's content, including the introduction of its first season pass with additional DLC characters like Rashid and Akuma.

Currently, the base roster of Street Fighter 6 features one alternate costume for each of its eighteen characters, allowing players to select from various color palettes. Established fighters such as Ryu, Cammy, and Juri showcase outfits reminiscent of their classic appearances, while new characters like Jamie and Manon don attire that reflects their personalities. Fans can anticipate an array of new outfits for the entire base roster arriving next month.

The release date for Street Fighter 6's Outfit 3 has been officially set for December 1, 2023, as announced in a recent Capcom trailer. The video provides a glimpse of the stylish and nostalgia-inspired outfits for each character. Notable highlights include Luke's rookie debut outfit from Street Fighter 5 and Cammy's red coat reminiscent of her appearance in the Street Fighter 2 animated movie. Marisa's elegant wedding dress and Ryu's casual attire from Street Fighter 6's arcade mode endings add further variety to the ensemble.

A Capcom blog post delves into the design team's enthusiasm for the positive reception of these costumes at EVO 2023. The post offers detailed insights into the inspiration and thought process behind each outfit, shedding light on the characters' personalities. For instance, Juri's loungewear reflects a relaxed at-home look, with her devil-like hair horns tousled while she sleeps.

Capcom has also revealed plans for alternate costumes for the first-year DLC characters, including Rashid, Ed, A.K.I., and Akuma. However, fans will need to wait until Spring 2024 to see the third costume for these characters, coinciding with Akuma's addition to the game. In the meantime, the introduction of Ed as the third DLC character is eagerly anticipated, scheduled to join Street Fighter 6 in Winter 2024.
