Street Fighter 6 December 2023 Patch Notes
All Fighters
Assisted Combo:
- Fixed an issue that caused the Assisted Combo input buffer start timing to be 1 frame slower than expected.
- With this fix, another issue that caused Chun-Li and Kimberly's Assisted Combos to not continue when attempting a jump cancel at the same time a button was pressed is also fixed.
Taunt
- There was an issue that caused a Taunt to be performed when canceling into a special move from a normal attack, etc., when the player mistakenly hit other buttons at the same time. It has been fixed so that special moves cannot be canceled by Taunts on the 1st frame of the attack.
Perfect Parry
- Fixed an issue where invincibility time was shortened when specific actions were taken after a successful Perfect Parry.
Wake-up recovery input buffer
- Changed the input buffer time when recovering from 4 frames to 7 frames.
- Fixed an issue where if the opponent performs a Super Art, if certain attacks are input immediately after the screen darkens, once the screen transition is finished, the move will be performed.
A.K.I
Crouching Heavy Kick
- Fixed an issue where the attack was given a low hit property from frames 2 - 5. This has been fixed to a high hit property.
Chi Wen (→+Heavy Punch)
- Fixed an issue where A.K.I.'s recovery would increase when her techniques are Perfect Parried.
Light Serpent Lash (↓↘→+Light Punch)
- Fixed an issue where A.K.I.'s recovery would increase when her techniques are Perfect Parried.
Medium Serpent Lash (↓↘→+ Medium Punch)
- Fixed an issue where a move would not be performed if Down was input during a successful command input when using Modern controls.
Medium Snake Step (Neutral+SP)
- Fixed an issue where Medium Snake Step would be performed when certain commands other than the SP Button were input when using Modern controls.
Overdrive Snake Step (Assist+Neutral+SP)
- When using Modern controls, pressing the SP Button by itself performed Snake Step. However, the canceled version of Overdrive Snake Step would be performed after Nightshade Pulse even if you were holding a direction input.
- Due to this, if the player attempted to repeatedly press the button while inputting Overdrive Nightshade Pulse, Overdrive Snake Step would unintentionally be performed. Due to this, the canceled version of Overdrive Snake Step can only be performed with no direction input.
Entrapment (↓+2 Punches > Light Punch+Light Kick)
- Fixed an issue where the hit effect would not be displayed on Punish Counter.
- Fixed an issue where a mid-air opponent would look they were being thrown when specific attacks hit.
Overdrive Cruel Fate (↓↙←+2 Kicks)
- Fixed an issue where immediately after A.K.I. jumps over the opponent, the command input would be the opposite of the original direction.
JP
Air Throw
- Fixed an issue where if a mid-air throw was attempted after warping via Departure: Window, JP would not have the Punish Counter/Forced Knockdown property attached to him.
Bylina (→+Heavy Kick)
- Fixed an issue where if the 2nd attack was blocked low, it could not be canceled.
- Fixed an issue where if the 2nd attack's active part on hit caused the cancel to be 1 frame slower.
Embrace (↓↙←+Kick)
- Fixed an issue where the attack would not hit an opponent facing backward.
Guile
Solid Puncher (Super Art Level 2)
- Fixed an issue where while Solid Puncher is active, Drive Gauge recovery amount was different from normal depending on time elapsed.
On ground (Normal)
- Every frame: changed from 50 to 40
Mid-air (Normal, Burnout)
- Every frame: changed from 10 to 20
Backward Throw
- Fixed an issue where the animation during a throw was off when performed on big characters.
Cammy
Fatal Leg Twister (↓↘→+Punch > Light Punch+Light Kick)
- Fixed an issue where a mid-air opponent would look they were being thrown when specific attacks hit.
Jamie
Tensei Kick (↓+2 Kicks)
- Can no longer be canceled by taunts on the 1st frame of the attack.
Juri
Feng Shui Engine (Super Art level 2)
- Fixed an issue where while Feng Shui Engine is active, Drive Gauge recovery amount was different from normal depending on time elapsed.
On ground (Normal)
- Every frame: changed from 50 to 40
Mid-air (Normal, Burnout)
- Every frame: changed from 10 to 20
Dee Jay
Speedy Maracas (↓↓+2 Punches)
- Fixed an issue where a Punish Counter property was added after the 2nd frame of the technique when the command was input by plinking the Punch buttons, causing the game to recognize it as a canceled activation.
- During Modern controls, Speedy Maracas could not be performed if the player attempted to plink the command as Down+Medium Attack > Heavy Attack.
- Fixed an issue where the technique would not end even if the button was released when the player had 1 bar of Super Art gauge or less.
- Fixed an issue when using Modern controls where the button required to continue the technique was different depending on the amount of Super Art gauge.
(*Plinking: Quickly pressing two or more buttons exactly one frame apart)
Blanka
Rock Crusher (→+Medium Punch)
- The amount of Drive Gauge obtained by the opponent when 2nd attack was blocked was changed from 1250 to 625.(Please note that if the 1st attack is blocked, the 2nd attack is considered a high attack.)
Standing Heavy Punch
- Fixed an issue where Blanka's recovery would be extended when this attack collides with an opponent's Drive Parry, Perfect Parry or super armor. (The extended recovery when this attack misses is by design.)
- Fixed an issue where the special move input buffer timing was earlier than expected when Super Art 2 is active.
Standing Light Kick
- Fixed an issue where while Lightning Beast is active, the hurtbox in front of the character before an attack starts gets hit by an opponent's cross-up attack.
Standing Medium Kick
- Fixed an issue where while Lightning Beast is active, the special move cancel input buffer timing is earlier.
Crouching Light Punch
- Fixed an issue where while Lightning Beast is active, the hurtbox in front of the character before an attack starts gets hit by an opponent's cross-up attack.
Crouching Medium Punch
- Fixed an issue where while Lightning Beast is active, the hurtbox at the feet is smaller than normal.
Jumping Medium Punch
- Fixed an issue where while Lightning Beast is active, the collision pushbox would not expand when the attack hits.

Rashid
Ysaar (Super Art Level 2)
- Fixed an issue where if you performed a boostable special move on the final state of the tornado, you could not boost a special move again afterwards.
- Fixed an issue where if you kicked the tornado during its final state with Arabian Cyclone, it would move at the same speed as before it was kicked.
Ryu
Collarbone Breaker (→+Medium Punch)
- The amount of Drive Gauge obtained by the opponent when 2nd attack was blocked was changed from 625 to 1250.(Please note that if the 1st attack is blocked, the 2nd attack is considered a high attack).

Known Issues

Street Fighter 6
Street Fighter 6 is a fighting game made by Capcom in 2023. It's the seventh main game in the Street Fighter series. You can play it on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, and Xbox Series X/S. An arcade version called Street Fighter 6 Type Arcade, published by Taito, will come out later. The game has a prequel comic series too.
It uses the RE Engine and supports playing with friends on different platforms. Street Fighter 6 got good reviews for its gameplay and sold over 2 million copies by July 2023. It offers different modes to play, and you can even choose how you want to control the game. There's also a cool real-time commentary system that gives it a tournament-like feel.
Street Fighter 6 Gameplay
Street Fighter 6 introduces three main game modes: Fighting Ground, World Tour, and Battle Hub. Fighting Ground lets you battle locally or online, train, and play arcade modes with the classic 2D fighting style. World Tour is a solo story mode where you customize your character and explore 3D environments, engaging in action-adventure gameplay.
The Battle Hub serves as an online lobby where players can compete in ranked or casual matches, use avatars created in World Tour, join special events, and even play classic Capcom arcade games. The game's core fighting mechanics revolve around the Drive Gauge, a system encouraging player creativity with five different techniques.
There are three control types, including a classic layout, a modern simplified layout, and an offline-only dynamic scheme. Street Fighter 6 also brings back multiple super combos, allowing players to unleash powerful moves based on their character's level gauge. A unique feature is the real-time commentary system, providing tournament-style commentary options in English or Japanese, adding excitement to the gameplay.
