By Matt T.M. Kim. | Nov 24, 2020 The fallout from a massive data breach at Capcom continues as more games in development leak online... Here is a list of the biggest names listed in the purported schedule:
By /PPG/ | Nov 18, 2020 Ragnar has just released more onto the internet, this time including emails regarding #StreetFighterVI. ![]() By Yoshinori Ono | Aug 9, 2020 "And now, after serving almost 30 years at Capcom, I am leaving the company in the summer. This means that I will resign my position as the brand manager for Capcom's various titles including Street Fighter." — Yoshinori Ono (@Yoshi_OnoChin) August 9, 2020 By Saqib Mansoor | Aug 6, 2020 Street Fighter 6 was slated for a release somewhere in 2021 if rumors are to be believed. However, ongoing development troubles forced Capcom to not only change leadership but also delay the fighting sequel by another year. Taking to Twitter earlier today, well-known insider Dusk Golem claimed that Street Fighter 6 "was not received well" by internal testers. The root of the problem was apparently a new "team mechanic" that was introduced and was being heavily focused on by director Yoshinori Ono. Capcom, as a result, decided to replace Ono with someone else to "fix" Street Fighter 6, which has pushed the release window further by another year. Under the new "she" director, the fixes have started to turn out good. The internal testers are said to now be happy with the game and provided that there are no unforeseen delays, Street Fighter 6 could potentially release somewhere in 2022.
The rumored claims, provided that they are accurate, do explain why Capcom announced a new season pass for Street Fighter 5 earlier today. The developer will be adding five new characters, four of which have been revealed to be Dan Hibiki, Rose, Oro, and Akira. The season pass will give Capcom another year of breathing room to get Street Fighter 6 in perfect fighting shape. Street Fighter 5 is now four years old and its latest Champion Edition bundles all 40 characters together. The upcoming five will boost the playable roster to 45 next year. Capcom will probably wait until the season pass is done and dusted before announcing Street Fighter 6. By Yoshinori Ono | Jul 24, 2019
