Street Fighter 6 Update 1.11 Patch Notes
With this update we've added some balance adjustments to a few characters. These were made with the following objectives in mind. 1. Improve characters that could not fully express their individual potential. 2. Improve techniques that were clearly difficult to use. 3. Weaken elements that controlled an opponent's action too severely.
1. Improve characters that could not fully express their individual potential.
Most of these adjustments focused on Jamie and Ryu. Jamie is a character whose potential improves the higher his drink level gets, but there was a lot of work required to unlock that potential, and it was difficult for him to show what he was capable of. For this update, we looked to alleviate this issue by increasing the number of ways he can increase his drink level. While Ryu looks like a character that has been carefully balanced when viewed in a vacuum, he has very few elements to his gameplan that stick out, and in the "standard character" category, his individuality is a bit thin. To address this point, we've made adjustments so that it's easier to make use of his Hadoken, and increased the number of ways players can incorporate his Hashogeki into their gameplan.
2. Improve techniques that were clearly difficult to use.
We've improved techniques that were difficult to connect with in combos or were unreliable as anti-air techniques.
3. Weaken elements that controlled an opponent's action too severely.
We primarily looked at techniques that were very strong as defensive measures for characters. We felt that in the neutral and while on defense, there were some techniques that were low risk but yielded a high return. Therefore we've weakened those techniques that controlled an opponent's action too severely. Regarding Ken's throw, while this is an offensive attack, he winds up in an ideal situation no matter where he is, which creates too much pressure, particularly for characters that don't have any invincible attacks. In order to alleviate this situation, when his throw lands in the corner of the screen, we've made it so that he is in a slightly worse situation after the throw. We feel that the adjustments made during this update cover more area than previous battle adjustments, but we looked to even out the balance of the game without changing anything dramatically. This means that there are some characters that have absolutely no changes, and some characters that were only weakened, but we are looking at performing an overall balance adjustment in the future that will also affect characters not touched with this update. We appreciate your patience as we work towards that.

Street Fighter 6 Gameplay
Street Fighter 6 offers three main ways to play: Fighting Ground, World Tour, and Battle Hub. Fighting Ground lets you battle against friends locally or online, practice your moves, or dive into classic arcade modes. World Tour is a solo adventure where you create your fighter and explore different 3D worlds, taking on challenges along the way. Battle Hub is where you go online to compete, using your World Tour avatar, joining events, and even playing classic Capcom arcade games.
The game's fighting revolves around the Drive Gauge, a system that encourages creativity. You can use it for five different techniques, like Parry or Focus Attack, each adding depth to your strategy. There are three control options to suit your style: classic for longtime fans, modern for simplicity, and dynamic for casual play.
Street Fighter 6 brings back multiple super combos, letting each character unleash powerful moves tied to their level gauge. As you fight, you'll need to manage your gauge to pull off the right moves at the right time. And when things get intense, you can trigger a Critical Art for a game-changing moment.
A cool new feature is the real-time commentary, giving matches a tournament vibe with live analysis or optional cheering from a diverse cast of commentators. It's like having your own hype crew cheering you on as you battle it out in the arena.
