Street Fighter 6: Unveiling the Epic AKI Release Date That Will Blow Your Mind!

Highlights

A.K.I., the latest competitor for Street Fighter 6, will be released as DLC on September 27, offering players a new character with a unique fighting style and poison attacks.

Capcom is continuously adding more content to Street Fighter 6, with A.K.I. being the latest addition following the recent inclusion of Rashid. The debut of A.K.I. also brings along a fresh fighting pass that offers cosmetic items, and players will have the chance to test out the new character before making the decision to unlock her.

Capcom has announced that the latest competitor for Street Fighter 6, named A.K.I., will be available as DLC on September 27. The game was launched in June and has received positive reviews for blending classic style with modern updates and featuring a strong roster of characters. Capcom is also planning to release three more characters, with A.K.I being the next in line. A.K.I was first revealed earlier this month and players can now finally anticipate the release date of this formidable new fighter.

Capcom has announced through a tweet from the official account of the game that Street Fighter 6 will release A.K.I. on September 27. Further details about the character were provided in a post on the Capcom Social Media and Community Manager Andy Wong's PlayStation Blog. The post included extensive information about A.K.I.'s fighting style and unique set of moves.

A.K.I., a poison specialist with a snake-theme, showcases her style and attacks that align with this theme. She possesses the ability to gradually damage enemies with poisonous attacks, making her an ideal choice for players who prefer wearing down opponents over time. This strategic approach offers an intriguing and challenging gameplay experience for fans seeking something fresh. However, due to her complexity, A.K.I. may not be suitable for beginners and may not secure a position on the list of the best Street Fighter 6 characters for novice players.

A.K.I. will be available for fans who have purchased the Year 1 Character Pass, as well as the Deluxe or Ultimate editions of the game, when she is released at the end of September. For those who have not purchased these editions, A.K.I. can be purchased separately as DLC. Additionally, players interested in trying out the new fighter can do so through a Rental Fighter Ticket before deciding whether to unlock her.

To celebrate the arrival of A.K.I., Capcom has announced the launch of a new fighting pass on September 1. This pass will offer various cosmetic items, including an outfit that reflects her unique style. With an array of already impressive outfits in Street Fighter 6, fans who enjoy collecting them will not want to miss out on this pass when it becomes available. Regardless of whether they purchase the pass or not, most fans will undoubtedly want to experience the deadly master of poison when she joins the battle.

Street Fighter 6 is available now on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
