Heads-up for anyone new to this game: World Tour Mode's framerate is locked to 30fps by default, but if you are playing on PS5, XSX or PC, you can change it to 60fps in the game's settings.

"I walked up to a pizza stand, ordered pizza, form my character and then I beat the shit out of the pizza guy" Now that's a true gamer experience.

You guys are selling yourself short! Casual Fighting Game opinions are EXTREMELY valid for this game, especially since that's what Capcom (and the FGC as a whole) is aiming to get more of. More new players = a longer, healthier life for Street Fighter 6 as a whole, so if you guys love it, then it's perfect!

As a FG player it's nice to see perspectives from the more casual audience! The hype for the game is high within the community and unlike the previous game (SFV), I'm glad to see more casual players are able to jump in out of the gate and have fun!

I have played both the demo for this and the open beta, and now this is the first AAA title I've ever pre-ordered. First game I've been excited for in the last 5-10 years. Capcom's RE engine games always seem to be well optimised on older systems and it ran as smooth as the latest resident evil games

Nothing better than beating the same pizza guy after ordering pizza for him. That's a quality gamer move out there. Seriously though, that open world part of the game looks neat. Imagine all the possibilities for that mode

I like the gameplay in the video. It shows people who are not EVO material and that helps it appeal more to us casual fighting gamers. Cause sometimes you see a review of someone playing it like a god and just think "well that game is not for me, I'll be the one getting bounced endlessly"

I’ve never played a Street Fighter game before but something about SF6 and World Tour has me very interested. Plus it’s getting tons of great reviews. Excited to check it out!

Hearing you say you guys are casual fighting game players, and are having fun, helped me feel better about this one. The last Street Fighter game wasn’t that fun to me, but the fact that this is open world and we can fight anyone anywhere is crazy cool. Ima get this at some point. Thanks you guys 🙌🏽

I don't know what's going on at Capcom HQ these past few years but DAMN have they been on a roll lately. Between DMC5, all the great Resident Evil games lately (both new, and remakes), Monster Hunter, Dragon's Dogma 2 coming up, and now SF6? I think there is a strong argument that they are among the ONLY AAA studios doing well these days (aside from From software imo).

Just a heads up, the fights in World Tour can be made 60 FPS instead of 30 by changing it in the options from Resolution to Performance

I have always wanted to get into the FGC rather than just enjoying from the sidelines and playing fighting games casually like I have my whole life. I can't stress enough how happy I am to hear this game is landing on its feet and actually makes a genuine effort to welcome new players to the scene.

Those animations were soooo smooth. Although I'm more of a Tekken guy, I'm actually pretty excited for this game.

I got into fighting games 2 years ago and i sure as hell don't regret it. I really hope that this game brings a large amount of casual/new players and make street fighter mainstream again. Fighting games despite being hard to get good at, are so fun and definitly deserve the time investment, believe me!

The thing I really love about this channel is the honesty and integrity,you don't need to be a hardcore sweat to enjoy fighting games,I've been on the fence about this one as I can never get used to 2D mechanics but I might just pick it up and try to learn

Wow!!😳🤯🤯🤯 I’m completely blown away! As someone who grew up playing street fighter in the arcade and on Super Nintendo I’m completely blown away!!! This is amazing to see the growth and progression of a great franchise…Simply marvelous

I can't speak for everybody, but I know we love you guys because you guys are the everyday gamers. You're not the hardcore guys who only play one genre or who are fanboys to only one console. You guys are extremely relatable and we appreciate the hard work you guys put in

GameRanx you're one of my favorite video game channels of this type. Not only you very much know what you're talking about but I can also feel your passion about video games. Thank you for all your wonderful content! 😃

Im glad you said that thing at the end about this not being intimidating cause that's always what has stopped me from buying SF games. Always felt really difficult for a casual or new player but maybe I'll give this one a go

Before you buy, but I already BOUGHT IT 🤣

As a hardcore and longtime tekken player this will be my first SF game and i can't wait for the single-player content!

Great review from a casual perspective! This is def gonna be a main staple game for the community and everyone has pretty much collectively seen this game as amazing! Im excited to see where the competitive scene goes and that they add as time progresses

Been a SF fan since 1991 at the arcades with SF2. Am super happy to see so many newcomers to the series being excited to try this one out!

I was never much of a fighting game person besides mortal kombat and injustice but i was super excited for this. It plays really well and i love the variety of gameplay. Its super engaging for newbies and just like you said, it was the first one that wasn’t intimidating to get into

Yuri and Cammy they are my favorite characters.....for reasons....

I can 100% respect the honestly about it being a casual take. as someone who plays a lot of fighting games SF6 is amazinf

Bought it. Releasing in 4 hour for me :) Can't wait to pour my soul into this game. I already have 20 hours in the demo only haha

Wow...I have been a subscriber to this channel for a very long time. I come here for the excellent reviews and gameplay footage for all the newest games. Your staff is real, down to Earth, and is one of the most professional journalist teams I have seen on KZfaq. I am completely humbled by the honesty you have shown in this video. "We are very much casual players in the fighting game genre. If you would prefer the perspective of a more serious player check this channel out..." (paraphrased) That Jake, is called journalistic integrity and you guys have it in spades. Thank you for being awesome! Wait a minute...your character is carrying a gun! Can I start busting caps at those box head guys? I'm assuming they're the bad guys in this. I started playing Street Fighter 2 in 1992 in the arcades and Snes. I became such a huge fan that for a good solid year all I wanted to do is play Street Fighter. I stopped playing after SF4 in 2010'ish. I did the tournament thing for years and was a decent player. I ranked number 2 in regionals on two separate occasions. I am now a casual player because my hands just can't keep up anymore. I might get this I don't know. I wonder if cross-play is enabled? If it is I will buy it for our Series X (the controllers are amazing). If not then probably the PS5.

I love your humble perspective to this review. A lot of reviews feel like they have to be perceived at good at every game even if they are not.

You can set the battles to be 60FPS in world tour mode but it requires you to change the setting in the options. It's really weird they don't have it at 60 by default here, but I guess it helps with lower end PC's and maybe the PS4 version.

Whenever there’s a game I wanna see is good I go to yall and appreciate y’all being honest and recommending other channels for the more fighter game info stuff since I’m a noob at em myself and enjoy y’all’s work giving us ur opinions of games

I had an accident a few years ago where 1 injury was I lost my right index finger ! It sucks trying to play games and fighting games most of all . Sucks big time .

7:13 from this line and this line alone I will be getting the game. Really all I needed to know Thx

Have never played a SF game tbh. Only dabbled with games like this. Played some MK10 for about 30 hrs, have a good amount of time on Smash. But this games style and direction appealed to me. And ofc Cammy :)

Gameranx shouting out Max?? Hell yeah dood! He gives great insight and healthy opinions. Plus he’s hilarious and is very passionate about street fighter. I definitely recommend him if you want a down to earth fighting game content creator’s opinion. EDIT: I have been trying to get into SF for years but I got into the scene late with SFV being the only game I’ve tried my hardest to practice but could never get it. This will be my first SF experience from release and onward and I really hope I can grow into a player of skill like the rest of the people I watch. I want to stream this and really build something from it.

As a veteran player I can say this is shaping up to be the best SF yet. The mechanics are like a best hits of other games. Drive rush is almost FADC from 4, parry from 3, drive reversal is basically alpha reversals. Theres no 1 frame links like 4. Never played 5 been waiting a decade for this.

You’re my go to for reviews

I haven’t played street fighter since the 90s when I was in single digits of age but I’m very intrigued by this entry for some reason

I am a RPG nerd and I never thought that one day I would be playing fighting games. Now I am addicted since the betas and now I also tried the other titles and I am having a lot of fun. I bought the SFV, MK11, SF6, Blazeblue, Injustice 2 (injustice is so cool), and in a few hours I am going to play the SF6❤❤❤

You forgot to mention that you can play many Capcom arcade classic games in the game center as well: Final Fight, SF2, etc… so cool!

The starting roster has Lilly, Gief, Blanka, Honda alone as my mains, and plenty of new characters to try and learn. So exciting!

SF6 is the most hyped I've been for Street Fighter in decades!

You guys at Gameranx may not be fighting game experts BUT I enjoy your content. It's genuine and always cool. Thanks man/ team. I'll be buying my copy tn or tomorrow

INDESTRUCTIBLE! Glad to see you guys had a fun time Gameranx!

I've only played Guile and Chun Li in Street Fighter for like 20 years soooo i doubt that'll change tbh lol

“I got my pizza then beat the shit out of the pizza guy. This is a great game”. You’re damn right Jake.

I love watching content from casual fighting game players. I've been playing for a while now and swapped to hitbox after some hand injuries. It's dope to see people give the genre a try and I'll be playing, if you see me in the lobby feel free to ask any game related questions.

The way modern fighting games lock out characters behind a pay wall completely sours me from buying the game. $40 for 4 character for an $80 game? Screw that. Capcom is one of the worst offenders of this.

I’m not usually into fighting games at all, but I might pick this up once it starts to go on sale. It’s seems like there’s quite a bit of variety and accessibility for newcomers.

I loved SF4, i loved what SF5 ended up becoming, but the prerelease hype for this one has been grand. I've avoided the demo abd betas, im ready to get home and PLAYYY

This was straight up THE BEST video I could’ve seen. I’m on/off buying this one & to hear someone that has similar skills as me have fun with this. I’m considering buying now. Also the city streets / gameplay literally reminded me of Yakuza 🔥🙌🏽

I was originally planning to wait for just MK1 this year but now I’m thinking it may be worth it to play some SF6. I’m lucky to have a good budget and am able to get both fighting games and I don’t think I will mind playing both Sf and MK for the next year

I wasted so many quarters in SF2 Turbo machine at the deli across the street from my elementary school. It was the modded machine too where E. Honda would fire sonic booms when you did the hundred hand slap. Good times. The new game looks great! The adventure mode looks a bit like Shenmue

The honesty at the beginning of this review is greatly appreciated. Good stuff.

Looks OK. I didn't enjoy the beta, but I've always enjoyed mortal kombat more, so I'll wait for mk1 and get the ultimate edition

Hey thanks Gameranx for making a video about Street Fighter 6. It's unfortunate that some of your collogues can't be bothered to review a fighting game. In the year when we are getting so many of the major ones it's a shame. The fighting game community is small but dedicated and can always reviews especially from major outlets such as channel. So thank you !

I've been playing SF for years. And always been pretty good at it. I started in the arcades from back in the days. I'm from NY so there was an arcade some in the comments may know called CF (Chinatown Fair), that i frequented, so needless to say ur game kinda had to be solid to even stand a chance. Lol. My FAV SF of all time tho is Third Strike...and I'll say I haven't been this excited for a SF since then. In terms of new characters I can't wait to try out Marisa. I got the chance to participate in both betas so I tried I Kimberly exclusively on the closed beta and Ken during the open beta. And both were a ton of fun to use. I just can't wait for the full release to drop so I could really dive deep with this game. 👊🏾💢🎮

i've been playing since sf2 snes / sega days. i remember jumping in on my friends snes and was hooked , then eventually i saw it release for sega , it think it was super street fighting 2 tournament edition or something like that. i have the deluxe version of sf6 coming tomorrow i can't wait. nice review , it sounds like a game that is great for new players , and hardcore players.

idk bout yall but Chun Li looking right lol

Mad respect for the honesty of not being a fighting game player. Max is definitely the person people should watch if they want thoughts on the more competitive online side of things.

I ruled at SF2 (the OG). We had an SF2 cabinet at work, and I played SO MANY matches. Haven't played a single one since, but this looks really good, actually.

Alot of respect for admitting that you are just casual fighting game fans and to check out real fighting game players videos for a deeper dive. Alot of game reviewers aren't confident enough to admit that and get flamed when they do something dumb and wrong. For a game like SF6 it matters alot because you really cant pick up and play without prior experience in fighting games, its just the way the genre is.

It's Jake Baldino AKA The Jakester

They really work hard at trying to conserve that arcade nostalgia whilst using modern day technology. This is the best balance by far . The characters feel like the ones we are used to but are detailed and edgy . SF has always been bright with contrasting colors lovely to see that ! Game plays well too its inviting to a casuals but still caters to the expert’s demos nice but the price is still a bit steep .

with the channel logo chime being from street fighter I thought you guys played it a lot, anyway great review

Definitely Gonna Cop This. I appreciate the vibe and the effort your team puts in to make the daily videos.

They need to make street fighter 3D like Tekken 7 ( the ring- arena needs to be 3D like tekken)

If they had all the classic characters added from SF2 era then I might buy it. Love that specific era.

As casual fighting game fans and saying to check out other reviewers for more in depth info is why I am subbed to you guys. Respect.

The fact that the hits feel so heavy and the extremely effective visual cues for hits and blocks make this an instant masterpiece and so engaging. That I think is what makes it easier to get back into the game knowing exactly where we messed up. This game is just good.

I like the way it looks has the 90's style but with crisp graphics

As someone who started my fgc journey in 09' it feels like it's come back full circle with 6! Capcom are capGODS again

1:03 guy in the background is from a game you mentioned recently, Final Fight

As a long time Street Fighter player, since SF 2, it's been crazy, to see how this series evolves; & somehow manages to evolve, with each entry

I've been playing Street Fighter since the very first game (yep, I'm old AF) I'm so glad SF6 is getting such high praise from experienced players to brand new ones alike. I cannot wait to get my hands on it. After the God-awful launch of SF5, this feature-rich entry has me so hyped!

The fighting game that really got me enjoying the genre was Injustice. Story was great and the fighting is acessible compared to other franchise. SF6 might be the fighting game ill sink countless hrs into.

The Street Fighter franchise has always been my favorite go-to when I have an itch to just jump in and play a fighting game. By no means am I pro player at all, but also as a CASUAL player, seeing this title getting so much packed in from the get-go as opposed to its barebones previous title, is such a great thing to see. Since Street Fighter IV (AND its multiple iterations thereafter), I've got this preordered and rarin' to go tonight!

I'm a young super fan. I was expecting world tour to be more akin to alpha 3. Progressively more difficult and cool in the later levels. As a kid who spent all his free time in an arcade the battle hub is amazing. The core tournament 2D fighting is beyond any before it. I had so much fun with the demo and the open beta. I'm super excited to play the full game at launch and beyond!!!!!!

Loved the demo, world mode must buy!

I’ll wait when it’s bundled with the first dlc pack and on sale for $40 ☹️

The characters are gorgeous. They have a gritty but exaggerated look that works...with battle damage included, which was long overdue. It plays fast too with counters and parrys, sorta feels almost like Killer Instinct 2013 with a Lil of MK 11

Seriously diggin that Final Fight lvl with the characters in the background!!

Bought the Ultimate Edition and I've got to say this is the first Street Fighter in a while that I'm absolutely hyped for this! Presentation is super dope especially compared to SF4 and SF5 more safe/bland presentation.

Great vid guys

I don’t even play Street Fighter, but it’s a Gameranx video so I watch. Love watching you guys!

Street fighter and virtua fighter were one of my favorites. Me and m brothers used to play it. My twin brother plays Ken I play Ryu, and more often lose, but its a fun game ❤ Thanks for the video

If you're looking for a deeper dive into SF6 from a FGC vet, Rooflemonger released a great review yesterday.

I’m just watching this to feel even better about buying this game🤷🏽‍♂️

No need to apologize for being a casual fan in fact we need more reviews by casual players, especially with this game which is trying its hardest to appeal to a mainstream audience. Casual players are extremely important for the growth and sustainability of the genre and capcom learned that the hard way with V. Great review.

OG Street Fighter fan but life has left me only time to be a casual player now. Appreciate you bringing up the control scheme and the fact someone who isn't a true fight gamer can still enjoy. As long as I can drop some Hadoukens and throw them Dhalsim hands, im good.

My first fighting game experience was SFV because I thought it looked really cool, but I struggled to even throw a fireball. Tried KoF as well and had similar struggles with learning combos, so I figured fighting games weren't for me. But the different control styles sound like game changers! I am definitely going to give fighting games another shot thanks to SF6

I wanna play this

Yoooo! love the shoutout to Max! Good stuff!

You guys being causal fighting game players is the exact reason why this review is the one I most needed to confirm that I wouldn't regret buying this, because that's exactly the same background in fighting games that I came from. I have played most fighting games at one point or another, but I can't even pretend to understand them on much more than a surface level, but I do enjoy playing them in short bursts every now and then. But the way the story in SF6 is set up makes me think this will likely be my favorite fighting game ever, because THAT'S the kind of experience I've always wanted from this genre, and I think the closest we've ever gotten to this is Mortal Kombat Deception.

System shock remake before you buy???

Buying regardless but love to see what y'all say

Thanks for the video, lol, the last time I played street fighter, I was about 8, playing on an arcade machine at my nearest burger place, I do believe it was Street fighter 2, I do miss Street Fighter and I should give this a go!

I started playing Street Fighter in college because the town was a hub for Third Strike (somehow). I played the last two betas for this and I can’t wait to play tomorrow! Jake, you could definitely beat that guy, if you ever wanna play and learn lemme know!

Only spent 2 hours in World Tour?? Jeebus. That's gonna be the whole game to me lol. For anyone else looking forward to WT, check out Sphere Hunter's review - she spent 50 hours on it tearing it apart, and the results are great!

Ay I know it’s late out could you please do elex 2
