Street Fighter 6 Ryu guide

Want to learn how to play as Street Fighter 6 Ryu? There's a reason Ryu is generally considered to be everyone's favorite fighting game character. His cool new beard and drippy outfit definitely help to draw people in, but the most appealing factor has to be Ryu's iconic moveset.


This latest iteration of Ryu in Street Fighter 6 has received a number of upgrades, including two new special moves and one super art. Be warned, picking the fighting game's most popular character comes with its own set of challenges, but we'll get into that later. We're going to break down Ryu's moves, combos, and your strategy in combat to help you rank up in the Street Fighter 6 beta this weekend.

Is Street Fighter 6 crossplay?

Want to know if you can play Street Fighter 6 crossplay? Crossplay enables you to play with fighters on other platforms. Since SF6 is being released on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, this feature would give you more opponents to go up against in both casual and ranked play.


The fighting game can of course be played against AI bots, but there's nothing better than dominating another real-life player. Street Fighter 5 had crossplay functionality, so we'd of course expect the same from Street Fighter 6. This is Capcom though, so you can never expect the obvious. Here's what we know about Street Fighter 6 crossplay ahead of the game's release date in early June.

Street Fighter 6 roster - every confirmed character

Want to know who made it onto the Street Fighter 6 roster? Looking back to older games in the series, Street Fighter 4 launched with 25 characters, but the lacklustre Street Fighter 5 featured just 16 characters on day one. Capcom appears to be learning from its past mistakes with Street Fighter 6's roster, bringing a mix of fan favourites, revamped returning characters, and new fighters.


While the Street Fighter 6 release date is pencilled in for June 2023, there's still plenty of time for the devs to reveal a few more surprises to the roster. In the Street Fighter 6 showcase, Capcom announced the Year 1 Character Pass contains four characters, one new and three returning fighters. The Street Fighter 6 roster features 18 characters at launch.
