If you don't want to play any of the classic Street Fighter characters, you'll be happy to hear Capcom is giving you the option to customize your character in Street Fighter 6. This customizable character is playable in both the single-player and multiplayer modes. You can change everything from height, skin tone, age, eye colour, and clothes/costume.
In the game's World Tour story mode, you can take your character around to explore the city and challenge NPCs to fight. You'll even face iconic characters like Ryu and Chun-Li, who can teach your avatar their special moves. You can bring your avatar to the game's multiplayer lobby area (a.k.a. the Battle Hub) and pit your fighter with other real-world opponents online.
If you want to try out the game ahead of its 2023 release, Capcom is hosting a closed beta test from October 7 to 10 on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. You can apply until September 30 at this link.
