Street Fighter 6's Latest Battle Pass Faces Backlash Over Lack of Character Costumes
Street Fighter 6 players are expressing significant dissatisfaction with the recently unveiled "Boot Camp Bonanza" battle pass. The issue isn't the content included – avatars, stickers, and other customization options – but rather the glaring omission of new character costumes. This has sparked considerable outrage across YouTube and social media platforms.
The game, launched in Summer 2023, has been praised for its refined combat mechanics and fresh additions to the franchise. However, its DLC and premium add-on strategy has drawn consistent criticism. This latest battle pass continues this trend, with fans voicing their disappointment over the lack of new costumes, some even stating a preference for no battle pass at all. User salty107, for example, questioned the economic logic of prioritizing avatar items over seemingly more profitable character costumes.
The absence of new character costumes is particularly frustrating given the last release was the Outfit 3 pack in December 2023. This lengthy gap, coupled with the more frequent costume releases in Street Fighter 5, highlights a perceived difference in Capcom's approach to post-launch content.
While the core gameplay, including the innovative Drive mechanic, remains a strong draw, the ongoing controversy surrounding the live-service model and the underwhelming battle pass content casts a shadow over the game's reception as it heads into 2025. The future of the battle pass and its potential updates remains uncertain.
