Original Story: [Fri 27th Jun, 2025 00:45 BST]:
Capcom has recently disclosed the Season 3 DLC lineup for Street Fighter 6, affirming that Sagat, C. Viper, Alex, and Ingrid would be joining the fray. Now, in an update during its Spotlight presentation today, the company has solidified a date for the first fighter.
With a short teaser today, it has been asserted that the iconic character and “emperor of Muay Thai” Sagat will be making his comeback on 5th August 2025. You will also have the chance to explore his themed stage, nestled deep within the mountains of Thailand.
Leading up to this release date, the “Sagat Arrives” Fighting Pass will be accessible on 4th July 2025. It comes filled with EX Colors, additional titles and music, avatar attire, new challenger screen illustrations and effects, emotes, stickers, and the playable classic game Tiger Road.
Capcom has also provided an update regarding the paid ‘Outfit 4’ content – confirming seven characters will receive these outfits first, with the rest of the roster to follow. All of this content is in the “final stages of refinement” and the team will present Sagat gameplay at a later date.
That’s all for now! In the meantime, you can review the original trailer reveal in our earlier coverage here on Nintendo Life. And if you’re contemplating Street Fighter 6 on the Switch 2, it includes some additional modes (Gyro Battle, Calorie Contest) and amiibo support.
