For those curious about disk space requirements and pre-downloading options, digital store pages provide the necessary details.
The File Size
The Xbox store page for Street Fighter 6 indicates that the game will take up roughly 50 GB of space, while the Steam version lists a requirement of 60 GB or more. As for the PlayStation versions, the file size has not been disclosed yet. The previous game in the series, Street Fighter 5, took up approximately 35 GB, not counting the game’s cinematic story mode. This aligns with other recent Capcom titles that have utilized the RE Engine, which have had similarly large file sizes. Interestingly, the full game’s size is only slightly larger than the 42 GB closed beta application for Street Fighter 6.
The Pre-Download Date
The pre-download date for Street Fighter 6 has been revealed on various digital storefronts. Those who digitally pre-order the game on PS4 and PS5 can start the pre-download on May 31, 2023, a few days before the official release. The Steam version, on the other hand, will unlock within 6 weeks and pre-loading will be available on June 1. The pre-download date for the Xbox version hasn’t been confirmed yet, but it’s expected to fall within the same range. Fans should also expect a day one patch to be included with the pre-download, while physical copies will require the update to be downloaded before playing.
Street Fighter 6 is set to be released on June 2nd, and will be available on Windows PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
