Street Fighter 6 welcomes a new fighter, reigniting player interest. The latest addition is Mai Shiranui, a popular character from the Fatal Fury franchise.
Capcom's Street Fighter 6 has been a resounding success, boasting 4.4 million copies sold by December 31, 2024. While some fans felt the game lacked frequent content updates, the introduction of Mai Shiranui has proven to be a significant boost.
Mai Shiranui is the third character in Street Fighter 6's second season pass. Her arrival dramatically increased the game's popularity. Steam's peak concurrent player count surged past 63,000 on her release day, a substantial increase from the previous peak of 24-27,000—the highest since May 2024.
Access to Mai Shiranui is granted via the Battle Pass. World Tour mode allows players to build relationships with Mai, learn her moves, and then put their skills to the test in Battle Hub. A second costume, inspired by her appearance in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, has also been added.
The Battle Hub also features a temporary guest character: Professor Woshige, a renowned fighting game developer. Players can experience his unique fighting style until March 10th. The update also includes new Master League ranks and rewards.
Capcom showcased Mai's impressive fighting techniques in a dedicated trailer.
