According to the listing, Street Fighter 6 will launch on 2nd June 2023, with a Standard and Deluxe Edition - the latter of which will include the game's Year 1 Character Pass.

A third option, for the game's Ultimate Edition, replaces the Year 1 Character Pass for the Year 1 Ultimate Pass. We may find out more about all that this evening.

Capcom has already announced the next Street Fighter 6 closed beta, which is set to run later this month, from 16th to 19th December. Here, you'll be able to test out eight characters from the upcoming game - including its new poster boy Luke - across six stages.

The game also recently popped up with an age rating, suggesting the title was entering its latter stages of production.
