Next Thursday, we’re going to get over 30 minutes of Street Fighter 6 content thanks to a Street Fighter 6 showcase, hosted by none other than Lil’ Wayne. The event starts at 3:00pm PDT on April 20 and Lil’ Wayne will be joined by developers to reveal some big news. But first, we’ll also get details on features that have already been announced: World Tour, Battle Hub, and Fighting Ground.
