Street Fighter 6's latest battle pass sparks outrage among fans due to its lack of character costumes. The "Boot Camp Bonanza" pass, unveiled across various social media platforms, features avatars, stickers, and other customization options, but the absence of new character outfits has ignited a firestorm of criticism. Players question the prioritization of less lucrative avatar and sticker items over highly-desired character costumes, expressing frustration on platforms like YouTube.
The controversy highlights ongoing concerns regarding Street Fighter 6's DLC and monetization strategy. While the game launched to critical acclaim in Summer 2023, praised for its refined combat and new mechanics, its post-launch content has been a source of contention. The last significant costume release was the Outfit 3 pack in December 2023, leaving fans feeling neglected, especially when compared to the more frequent costume releases in Street Fighter 5.
The negative reaction underscores a significant disconnect between player expectations and Capcom's approach to live-service content. Many players express a preference for no battle pass at all rather than one lacking the highly sought-after character costumes. While the core gameplay remains a strong selling point, the ongoing dissatisfaction with the game's monetization strategy casts a shadow over its otherwise positive reception, extending into 2025. The future of the battle pass, and Capcom's response to the backlash, remains uncertain.
