We here at EventHubs have been hard at work dissecting everything we can about Street Fighter 6 since it was first announced, joined in on all three of the betas, and spent numerous hours with the demo so that we could figure out as much as possible ahead of its release and share everything we can with you. We would like to welcome you all to our Street Fighter 6 starter hub, which gathers up all of the essential resources we've put together over the last year or so to get you started with everything you might need here at launch and beyond.

We gave Street Fighter 6 a 9.5 review score for being a near perfect fighting game that makes the future of the genre look bright. Oh, and yes, it is very much worth the money.
