In Street Fighter 6, players have numerous options to connect and compete for bragging rights. Upon launching the game, players will be prompted to create a Capcom ID, a straightforward process that's vital for online play. The game will then automatically link the new ID to the player's Steam/PSN/Xbox Live account, generating a fighter profile and a unique player code for fans to use. Additionally, the Battle Hub is a fresh addition to Street Fighter 6, offering players a platform to fight with customized avatars and engage in classic Capcom games. The hub also serves as a social area where players can interact and form new connections. This guide will reveal how to play with friends online in Street Fighter 6.
Playing With Previous Friends
In the Fighting Ground, players have the option to create a customized room with their friends. The default friends list will automatically populate with previous friends added on the platform being used. Fans have the freedom to modify the rules and player limit within the custom room. Furthermore, players can choose to make the room either private or public, and even set a password for exclusive access. Inviting friends into the game can be done through their console/PC, and the custom room menu provides a convenient location to view invitations and browse available games that friends are currently playing. Additionally, Street Fighter 6's custom rooms offer crossplay compatibility.
Meeting New Rivals
Players in Street Fighter 6 can create their own unique Fighter Profile, complete with a username and user code, as well as their fighting statistics. These profiles can be viewed by other fans by checking replays and recent fighters, or by approaching a player in the Battle Hub. Additionally, players can search for other profiles by username or user code and send friend requests or follow the best fighters to see their stat breakdowns. With crossplay capabilities, players can make new friends outside of their respective consoles and regularly compete against each other. For those who value privacy, there is the option to hide usernames and user codes in all public areas through the privacy settings.
Street Fighter 6 is available on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
