Street Fighter 6 ends support for World Tour mode

Capcom has announced that support for the World Tour mode in Street Fighter 6 will come to an end. The decision comes as the game approaches the third anniversary of its release date, and after the new characters introduced in Season 3 have been completed. The game launched with 18 fighters, but has since added more characters through season passes.

Changes to the World Tour mode

Ingrid, who was previously requested by players for Street Fighter 5, has now been added as the final character in Season 3 of Street Fighter 6. The developers did not give a reason for ending support for the mode, but confirmed that players will still have access to the mode and all previously released World Tour Masters.

Community reaction

The announcement has led to mixed reactions within the player community. Many players have expressed disappointment over the lack of new content in the World Tour mode. Some even feared that Street Fighter 6 is nearing its end. However, it is important to note that Capcom has not made any statement about ending support for the game as a whole. There are even rumors that Season 4 is already in development.

Future of the game

Despite the end of World Tour support, fans are hopeful that the lack of new story elements in the mode could make room for a larger and faster rollout of DLC characters in future seasons. However, there has been no official confirmation from Capcom about changes to the season pass system. If there is enough response from the fanbase, there is a chance the developers may reconsider their decision.

Season 4 of Street Fighter 6 may be announced during Summer Game Fest, where the announcements for Seasons 2 and 3 also took place. The event begins on June 5, and development of new characters is likely already well underway.
