During the last few months there has been a lot of talk about the possibility that the Street Fighter saga will present a new video game, especially on the occasion of the celebration of the 35th anniversary of this legendary fighting series . And so it has been! Capcom has just presented the long-awaited Street Fighter 6 , of which we already have a first teaser trailer and images.

The Japanese company has not gone into detail about the news of this new chapter, to the point that the platforms on which the new Street Fighter will be released have not even been revealed . The official description of the video mentions the following: “A new Street Fighter arrives. It’s official. Street Fighter 6 is in development! Stay tuned for more news in summer 2022″.

As you can see, Capcom does not talk about the squad of fighters or new mechanics, placing us in the summer months. This invites us to think that the new Street Fighter will be the protagonist of one of the already traditional summer events such as E3 or the most recent Summer Game Fest, which just a few months ago already confirmed that it would return in the summer with more video game news . In none of these cases, yes, we have specific dates.

Returning to the action of Street Fighter 6, this first teaser shows us Ryu , this time with a beard and a more serious expression, and Luke , one of the new additions to Street Fighter V, although he looks very different from how he appeared just a few years ago. months in the previous game of the saga. Precisely, at that time, Capcom already anticipated that Luke would be present in the future of Street Fighter.

Who develops Street Fighter 6?

As we told you, hardly any details are known about this new fighting game from Capcom, but as soon as it was announced, a creative veteran has already confirmed that he is involved in its development. This is the great Yusuke Hashimoto , director of Bayonetta 2 and in the past, designer of games like Resident Evil, Street Fighter Alpha 3 or Devil May Cry at Capcom.

After announcing his departure from Platinum Games after more than ten years at the studio, Hashimoto has confirmed that he is working on Street Fighter 6 as “one of the game designers. Please stay tuned for news!” on their social networks. It is unknown what other creatives collaborate with the former director of Star Fox Zero, but there is certainly a lot of interest in it considering that it will be the first Street Fighter in a long time that does not have as a producer the iconic Yoshinori Ono, a legend of Capcom.
