We start off with the Street Fighter 6 showcase, hosted by Lil Wayne. The showcase first previewed the highly anticipated World Tour mode. Fans were excited to learn that they can now create their own character and explore the world of Street Fighter like never before. In addition, Battle Hub now allows you to use your custom character. The demo for World Tour and Fighting Grounds is now available with limited use, giving fans a taste of what to expect from the final build.

We also discuss the issue of players using cracked versions of Street Fighter 6 and how upcoming changes will affect the final build. The demo showcased some of these changes, leaving fans excited for what’s to come.

Next, we move on to Tekken 8, which recently released a trailer for Lili with a brand new design. Lili also brings along her new cat named Salt, and the stage is now set during the day.

Unfortunately, we also discuss the delay of GranBlue Fantasy Versus Rising’s online Beta, which is experiencing stability issues. Creative Director Tetsuya Fukuhara promises to announce a new date as soon as things have settled.

Finally, we recap the recent Texas Showdown, which featured some impressive matches. Some standout performances include Tong’s placement in Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3, Justin Wong playing Capcom vs SNK 2 while casting, and Snake Eyez’s impressive run in Guilty Gear Strive.

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.

Gabriel Medina

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.
