Street Fighter 6 move lists

To start learning a character, you need to know what they can do.

With a massive cast of characters, we’ve broken down the move lists of each and every fighter below including their arsenal of special moves, unique attacks, and super arts.

Street Fighter 6: New Mechanics

New tools have arrived with explosive new colours

There’s a handful of new and exciting twists being added to Street Fighter 6, including a new universal resource bar — the Drive Gauge — which players can use to throw out EX moves and a range of new Drive abiliites.

EX attacks work much like before, but Drive moves are brand new to the series. You have Drive Impact, a powerful new armoured attack that stuns any opponent hit by it. Street Fighter 4 players can think of it kind of like a focus attack from that title. You also have a universal parry, which automatically absorbs incoming attacks at the cost of some of your Drive Gauge.

Finally, you have the Drive Rush, which is activiated with the parry input and a forward dash. This is essentally a brilliant gap-closer, although you can also use it to extend combos for some extra damage.

You'll have to be careful though, as using up your Drive Gauge entirely will put you into an exhaustion state. When in this state, you move slower and can't use any of the above tools, so you really want to avoid that at all costs.

Street Fighter 6 Single Player

Here comes a new fighter!

Street Fighter 6 is coming packed with an open world mode for you to explore! In this new mode, you'll be able to create your own character and explore the world of Street Fighter 6 in a shenmue / Yakuza style. There are open world fights for you to take part in, some of which coming with unique modifers and hazards to mix up the experience and keep you on your toes.

There's also a range of mini-games we saw in a recent trailer, including a time rush as you battle your way through a pack of enemies in a limited time, as well as the classic car-destruction mini-game.

Finally, and perhaps most excitingly, you can meet up with the cast of characters present in Street Fighter 6 in this open world single player mode. In the story trailer, we see the play character interact with Chun Li, Blanka and Ryu, so we'll be sure to learn several classic moves to help us navigate the world, destroy other fighters, and break open boxes in the environment. Classic single player stuff!

Street Fighter 6 Multiplayer

At the end of the day, it's PvP that's most important.

Single player isn’t the only aspect of Street Fighter 6 getting a fresh new makeover. The game’s multiplayer side is shiny and new too!

For one, there's the battle Hub. This is an open space filled with arcade cab which you can explore as your customised avatar. Here, you can battle against other players in Street Fighter 6, spectate other matches on a large middle stage, or just hang out with friends in one of the social spaces.

Here, you can also power through ranked matches, increasing your standing against the rest of the world as you climb the ranks from Rookie all the way up to Master. Here is where you'll find the most dedicated Street Fighter 6 players.


That wraps up our Street Fighter 6 guides page. Be sure to come back soon to find new additions to this list!
