The closest we got was assigned custom moves to Ace in Street Fighter EX 3, but that’s not really character creation, is it?Ĭonsidering I spent most of my youth being bullied by pretty much everyone in school, character creation suites were a great platform of expression for me without having to worry about what other people thought. Seeing my created dude rub shoulders with the likes of Ryu, Dudley, Akuma and others was a tantalising prospect back in the day, but it never seemed like it was going to be a reality. As a kid who spent a lot of time playing fighting games but had no one else to play with, one of my biggest wishes was to see a character creation mode in Street Fighter. The fact that Street Fighter 6 has a mode this in-depth is the stuff dreams are made of, literally. Given how varied the characters in Monster Hunter World and Rise can be, that’s saying something.

Many likely anticipated the choice of a few presets and some random outfits, but what’s been shown in the trailer looks like it might be Capcom’s most versatile creation suite yet. When the World Tour mode was first announced as a single player mode, most probably didn’t expect the avatar creation to be as in-depth as it looks. Now that Capcom have dropped more details about the avatar creation and World Tour mode at Tokyo Game Show 2022, that hype has only been amplified. A World Tour mode with your own playable avatar?

In fairness, it’s between that and Tekken 8, as the announcement trailer looked pretty darn sweet, but the excitement for Street Fighter 6 has been massive ever since all the modes and new features were announced. Street Fighter 6 could arguably be the most anticipated fighting game right now.
