Are You Too Old for the FGC?

Capcom has announced that an open beta for Street Fighter 6 will be live on May 19th-21st. While it’s available for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and Steam, it will only have 8 characters and won’t reflect changes in the demo. We also view new footage of Street Fighter 6 from content creators sessions held at the Capcom office, and they share their insights on the game.

In other news, Ed Boon hosted a Twitter Space that has many people buzzing with excitement about potential characters in the next Mortal Kombat game. Combo Breaker registration may have closed, but we now know that Guilty Gear Strive is the top game with 1,061 entrants.

This week’s Focus Attack tackles a fascinating question from Twitter asking if anyone is ever too old to return to the FGC. As self-proclaimed veterans of the FGC, we share our thoughts on this topic.

Video gaming runs in his blood and competition plagues his mind. From the earliest days in the now extinct arcades, to the eSports competitive scene, he looks forward to the next game to test his skills. No stranger to rising salt levels.

I've been playing video games for a while now. I enjoy racing games, RPGs, but spend most of my time with fighting games. My first goal was to get better than my brothers, but now I strive to be better than most while also teaching others.
