Release times can change from game to game, making it an important detail about this game to check ahead of time. Here is everything you need to know about the Street Fighter 6 release time.

When is the release time?

A specific release time has not been set, which makes it likely that the game will launch at midnight on release day, June 2. Typically, if a game is being released at unusual times, that information is shared ahead of time. There is still the possibility that this information will come ahead of the release, but with days to go, that seems unlikely.

The beta tests for the game did have their own specific release times, which is not unusual for online games. However, a full game is commonly released at the stroke of midnight, so we can likely expect the game at midnight.
