Capcom has released the latest Street Fighter 6 update for players to download, which brings a new character to the roster in the form of Jasmine. Those of you who own the Year 4 Character and Ultimate Pass can grab Jasmine now, although the character is also available to purchase separately, too.
Street Fighter 6 Year 4 update also implements a range of balance changes for the rest of the cast, which you can read about in full detail here. In addition, you can read the official blurb for the overall direction of this latest balance update below.
This battle adjustment was done with the aim of shifting the game’s balance by looking at every character and making adjustments. While we believe the game’s balance has reached a reasonably stable state thanks to repeated adjustments, the relative strength of each character has not shifted significantly in recent updates. Due to this, we decided to implement changes specifically to shake things up.
Please note that there are no adjustments applied universally to all characters.
Modern Control Adjustments
With this battle adjustments we’ve updated certain normal moves (ones that utilize the attack button) and special moves (ones that utilize the SP button) for specific characters. Additionally, for moves that are performed by pressing Down+SP, you can now select the strength of the special move by inputting SP with Down-back, Down or Down-Forward.This adjustment requires players to relearn specific moves and adds a layer of complexity to the controls, but were done with the aim of improving usability and providing Modern control players with a larger range of options while in the neutral. Please note that Assisted Combos have also been updated for some characters to reflect these changes. Please refer to the character-specific sections for full details.
