It’s been a year since Street Fighter 6 is out, so it’s only a matter of time until the game got a balance overhaul.

With Season 2 starting soon when Akuma drops into the roster on 22nd May, the game will get a major balance update. One of the major additions is the new recovery Drive Reversal option, which gives everyone a new wakeup tool. This new move will push opponents away if you’re cornered, beating out grabs, Drive Impacts, and so forth.

Other additions include:

• Ryu’s new Denjin Charge cancel after a target combo.
• Luke being able to combo Heavy Punch into charged Light Flash Knuckle without needing Drive Rush.
• Kimberly cancelling her Overdrive Bushin Senpukyaku into her aerial Level 2 Super.
• Manon’s back Heavy Punch connecting with OD Renverse kick follow-up.
• Cammy can perform Drive Rush cancel out of her heavy punch, heavy kick target combo.
• Lily can combo Light Kick into crouch Medium Kick on counter for OD Wind Strike.
• Ken can combo his crouch medium kick into running Shoryuken.
• Rashid can connect grounded slide into level 3 Super.
• JP can cancel the first hit of his OD fireball into his level 2 Super.
• Zangief’s crouching Heavy Punch causes a ground bounce on Punish Counter, leading to combo opportunities.

and many more! Check out the video below.

Season 2’s balance patch and Akuma will be in the game and game’s roster respectively on 22nd May.
