Street Fighter 6’s Major Update and Server Maintenance Details Revealed

Capcom is preparing for a big update for Street Fighter 6 on May 27 in the USA. This update will add a new character named Ingrid and many other new features.

The game’s servers will be down from 7 p.m. PDT to 12 a.m. PDT. During this time, players cannot use online features like matchmaking and the in-game shop. Players can download the update soon after the downtime starts. Those who have the Year 3 Character Pass can use Ingrid in offline modes.

Ingrid is an exciting addition. She is a magical girl and will use different projectiles in her moves. She can also teleport. This is her first time in a main Street Fighter game.

The update will bring two new game modes, Avatar Arcade and Random Avatar Matches. Players can customize their avatars and play against others or computer characters. There will also be new outfits for Ingrid, Alex, Sagat, and C. Viper. All 30 characters will get new, free DriveTech Wear costumes. More details will come soon.
