Yoshinori Ono: "I don't have Street Fighter 6"

[Cactuar]

There had been speculation here and other places about Street Fighter VI making an appearance or at least being involved in some type of announcement at the EVO 2019 next weekend, this was fueled by the news that PlayStation had come out of nowhere to sponsor the event. Ono more or less puts those rumors to rest:



If anything comes out of Sony's involvement, it does not appear it will be Street Fighter VI related, and as far as Street Fighter V, Eventhubs speculates:

At this point in time, guesses for what Capcom might be revealing for Street Fighter 5 next month are all over the map. Some people think we'll see one or two new characters at most, while others are expecting a full-blown five to round out Season 4 (since Kage was the first of the season).

There have also been rumors in the past about a potential "Super" Street Fighter 5 update that could add new mechanics, characters, and content. As always, though, rumors should be taken with a grain of salt.

Of course.

Spoiler

that's because it's SFVI

😉

 

[TheInfinityGauntlet]

SF6 isn't gonna happen until at least a year into next gen idk why people are talking about it

Next gen starts next year. SF6 could easily happen in 2021. Now would be the perfect time to start talking about it.

 

[Masterspeed]

What ever SF6 is, I want it to give me the feeling I got when I first played Street Fighter IV. Pure bliss.

 

[Enforcer]

Blanka will reveal SF 6 not him

Wasn't nothing blissful about getting 50%'d by Sagat in SF4. Now, SUPER Street Fighter IV, that gave me this kind of bliss that you're talking about lol

I loved Super way more than OG IV of course, but still, the evolution from 2D to 3D was doing amazingly for that series.

 

[Deleted member 6730]

No one should be expecting SF6 anytime soon. At least not until after the PS5 (and maybe next Xbox since I doubt it'll be exclusive) is announced.

 

[Instro]

That's because it will be a reboot called The Street Fighter. You're welcome.

 

[Ferrio]

Pocket Fighter? Pocket Fighter 2 announcing at EVO!

 

[Etrian Darkness]

I trust fighting game developers. They never lie. They are always truthful.

Spoiler

Though I do believe Ono might not be behind SF6/Capcom's next fighting game.

 

[Deleted member 29682]

It's ok Ono, neither do I.

 

[Kalentan]

Why do SF6 when he can skip right to SF7!?

 

[ShinobiBk]

I have no idea why anyone thought PlayStation being a sponsor and having an announcement would think it was SF VI. Exclusive SF didn't exactly go swimmingly and I don't see why they would go that route again

 

[SageShinigami]

This doesn't put anything to bed, tbh.

 

[Cels]

never thought i would look so fondly back at SF4 (even with yun divekicking and geni jin combos) but i really don't like SF5 at all

 

[Fredrik]

They'll talk about it after the PS5 unveil and exclusivity announcement.

 

[Bigg]

SF6 is definitely happening but I wouldn't be shocked if Capcom is waiting until the PS5 is formally announced before they confirm it.

I'm still expecting a logo this year, probably right after CPT finals in december.

He would unironically do this

 

[Maligna]

Capcom vs SNK 3 instead?

 

[FinKL]

It could be nothing?

Didn't we learn Ono is "not" working on SF6, maybe someone else is?

Although I believe they aren't working on a new one and just adding more to it SFV

Two years before release would not be the perfect time to talk about the game.

Nowadays Capcom does shorter announcement to release cycle so I wouldn't expect to hear anything about SF6 until we are much closer to its release.

 

[Garlador]

 

[Red Liquorice]

I thought the thread title meant that he was saying that he wasn't going to be involved in SF6 and I got a little excited :(

 

[Dust]

Fuck SF, I want MvC 4 or SvC 3.

 

[More Human than Human]

I don't think we'll be hearing about next gen games before the consoles are revealed.

 

[Platy]

There is only one non Street Fighter game in that image : the SD version of Capcom vs Capcom

Ono, call me for my Capcom Smash Bros idea ;D

 

[n1nt1nsu1t]

good, hopefully he doesn't

 

[funky]

After MvC:I and SFV I dont want Ono working on SF6 either.

 

[KtotheRoc]

We haven't even officially seen the PS5 yet.

 

[Hieroph]

I don't think we'll be hearing about next gen games before the consoles are revealed.

A game doesn't need to be on an announced system to be shown off in some way.

But even so, we've already had a game reveal for a next-gen system that hasn't been actually revealed yet.

Did Ono even work on MvC:I?

 

[MilesQ]

Gimme a new X-Men: Children of the Atom.

ALPHA 4 TIME BAYBEE

 

[Fjordson]

Not too surprising imo. I'd guess we're at least a year off from knowing anything about SFVI, if not longer.

 

[Lucas M. Thomas]

ALPHA 4 TIME BAYBEE

My thought exactly. :p I can hear the announcer voice now!

 

[OG_Thrills]

He said almost the same thing just before SF5 was announced.

 

[Cactuar]

ALPHA 4 TIME BAYBEE

One door closes, another opens!

Seriously I'd kill for Alpha 4 but Alpha 3 came out in like 97/98 I think it's done son.

 

[Sou Da]

They're not going to close themselves off from putting in characters people actually like by doing alpha again

 

[Ferrio]

If you did Alpha you'd have to bring back V-ism and custom combos, and fuck that.

 

[JusDoIt]

It was always an SFV update. I'm hoping the game gets to at least a nice even 40 characters and we get one more major gameplay update like second supers or another v-mechanic.

 

[Kalor]

They weren't going to announce it this early. Especially since Capcom are trying for shorter reveal/launch gaps and I doubt SF6 would be a 2020 game.

 

[Issen]

Marvel Vs Capcom 4 here we go!

 

[Deleted member 16876]

Good.

Give me more SF5.

 

[Silky]

I loved Super way more than OG IV of course, but still, the evolution from 2D to 3D was doing amazingly for that series.

EX2 is still better than any SF4 game before Ultra released but sure
