Street Fighter 6 Update 1.011 Is Out With Balance Changes and New Fighter

Capcom has just released a new patch 1.011 for Street Fighter 6 that supports a new DLC fighter, Ed, and other minor changes.

The update introduces several quality-of-life improvements, such as the ability to reflect the dummy’s control type in Training Mode, shortcut settings in Character Guides and Combo Trials, memory of outfit and color choices in Versus mode, and an option to select a Search Range for matchmaking in Battle Settings.

A dedicated throw button for Modern Controls has been added, along with various other tweaks to the gameplay mechanics.

Online functionalities have been improved, including Custom Room Battle Cabinet UI operations, claiming rewards beyond the maximum number of Rental Fighter tickets, adjustments to connection error messages, and enhancements to the Kudos system.

Several bug fixes have been implemented, including adjustments to emotes, Training Mode issues, and other minor bugs to ensure a smoother gaming experience.

The update also introduces a new mission for Ed in the World Tour mode, titled “Neo Shadaloo’s Leader,” set in the Metro City Urban Park at night. This has been the case with most of the new DLC characters in the game, as they can be found as “Masters” in the World Tour mode.
