Unleash Nostalgia: Street Fighter 6's Classic Outfits Unlocked

Fans of Street Fighter 6 may appreciate the impressive redesign of its warriors, but many still yearn for the nostalgic appearance of their beloved characters. Fortunately, the Classic Outfits feature allows players to relive the retro versions of the main SF6 roster, transforming them into familiar fighters. Referred to as Outfit 2, this customization option is designed to restore the classic appearance of iconic names such as Ryu and Ken. However, unlocking these costumes is not a straightforward process, as players must either complete specific tasks or use microtransactions in order to obtain them.

How to Unlock Classic Outfits in SF6

Unlocking Classic Costumes for Free

To obtain their Classic outfit in Street Fighter 6, players have the option to either bond with a master or purchase it from the Goods Shop for 50 Fighter Coins. This provides players with the flexibility to choose their preferred method of acquiring the outfit.

Unlocking the Classic Costume for a particular character in the World Tour mode requires the player to earn 100 bonding points. These points can be obtained through a variety of activities such as completing side quests, sparring with masters, and engaging in conversations with them.

Unlocking Classic Costumes with Fighter Coins

While this method has its advantages, it does have one minor drawback. At the start of the World Tour, not all characters are available as masters, meaning that players will need to progress through the story, discover them one by one, and build individual bonds with them in order to unlock all of the Classic Costumes.

Acquiring all Classic Outfits instantly is possible by spending 900 Fighter Coins at the Goods Shop. Each costume costs 50 coins. In total, it sums up to an approximate real-world value of $23.99.

Tips for Getting Outfit 2 (Classic) Faster

Purchasing Outfit 2s via microtransactions may not be the most ideal choice, especially since Capcom has hinted that certain costumes, even those that were exclusive to preorders and deluxe editions, may become accessible through alternate methods in the future. Additionally, the Story Mode (World Tour) can offer a viable means of obtaining all of the Classic looks, taking approximately eight hours to complete.

Players looking to unlock all Classic Costumes for free should make the most of side quests and feats like gifting that accelerate the bonding process with masters.

When trying to reach 100 bonding points quickly, it's important to bring unique gifts to the masters that they will appreciate. While Avatars can gift random items, choosing their favorite item will earn more points. Additionally, sparring with the masters whenever possible can help strengthen the bond faster. Lastly, being mindful of the dialogue choices and responding with likable answers can also increase bonding points for a specific character.

Street Fighter 6 is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X & S.
