Street Fighter 6 Players Frustrated by Lack of Character Costumes

Street Fighter 6's New Battle Pass Faces Backlash Over Lack of Character Costumes

Street Fighter 6's recently unveiled "Boot Camp Bonanza" battle pass has ignited a firestorm of criticism from fans. The issue isn't what the pass includes—avatars, stickers, and other customization options—but what it conspicuously lacks: new character costumes. This omission has sparked outrage across YouTube and other social media platforms, with the battle pass trailer receiving overwhelmingly negative feedback.

Launched in Summer 2023, Street Fighter 6 successfully blended classic gameplay with innovative features. However, the game's handling of DLC and premium content has been a point of contention. The latest battle pass continues this trend, with fans expressing disappointment over the absence of new costumes, a feature many consider more desirable and potentially more profitable than the included items. As one user, salty107, put it, "Who is buying the avatar stuff this much for them to just throw away money like this lmao? Making actual character skins would be more profitable, no?" The overall sentiment is that the battle pass feels like a missed opportunity, with some fans stating they'd prefer no battle pass at all to this one.

Street Fighter 6 Fans Decry Battle Pass Content

The frustration stems partly from the lengthy wait for new character costumes. The last major costume release was the Outfit 3 pack in December 2023. Over a year later, fans remain without new outfits, a stark contrast to the more frequent costume drops in Street Fighter 5. While Street Fighter 5 had its own controversies, the difference in Capcom's approach to post-launch content between the two games is undeniable.

The future of Street Fighter 6's battle pass remains uncertain. However, the core gameplay, particularly the innovative Drive mechanic—which allows for strategic fight reversals—continues to attract players. Despite the game's fresh mechanics and new characters offering a compelling update to the franchise, its live-service model and its recent content choices have alienated a significant portion of the fanbase, a trend that appears to be continuing into 2025.
