Street Fighter 6 Closed Beta - Start and end date, how to access, and more

Takayuki Nakayama, Director of Street Fighter 6 had plenty of information to share during the Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2022.

He started by thanking fans for their feedback from back in June 2022, and then showed off a brand-new trailer with some fantastic visuals. However, one of the bigger takeaways is that a Closed Beta will be available soon.

The developers gave plenty of information concerning the Closed Beta, how to join it, and what players can expect going into the limited-time testing period. Luckily, players won't have to wait very long since the testing period will begin in October 2022.
