You can sit at one of the many arcade machines stationed around the room and wait for someone to join you, or go to settings and toggle causal or ranked matchmaking at will. The most appealing thing about it, though, is how the Battle Hub enables player choice concerning traditional competitive play. There's a spot where you can play old-school Capcom games like Final Fight or engage in Extreme Battles, such as one where you play seesaw with one life bar while fighting over Mets (the construction workers from Mega Man) who descend onto the stage at random intervals. The area offers other points of interest, as well. So, it only makes sense that players will be given more cosmetic options as things progress.
It's essentially a means of self-expression and a place to hang out between bouts. The Battle Hub itself is more or less a giant 3D lobby with arcade machines, giant screens showcasing the top players based on win streaks, and places to pose while taking pictures. Despite being able to alter one's shape and size in cartoonish ways, most Black avatars sported the same dreads and afro hair options as I did. That aspect of play will probably come into its own as the game gets much closer to launch. It's a much-needed space given the limited pool of customizable options, especially for people of color. Instead, it was mostly focused on online bouts between players interacting with the Battle Hub and its associated attractions, such as a shop to buy new threads for avatars. The closed beta test didn't provide access to the game's single-player World Tour mode. What was advertised by Capcom more than lives up to the hype. But none of those early looks hold a candle to what I experienced in the recent Closed Beta Test.
The flashy moves and colorful characters looked amazing then and look amazing now. Since it was announced in February 2022, SF6 has had fans clamoring to play, even more so after the gameplay that was showcased during PlayStation's June State of Play.
