Today, CAPCOM announced that Street Fighter 6 has sold over three million units to date. This third million was much slower than the first two, though, as Street Fighter 6 managed that much in just one month from its June release.

Back in April 2023, CAPCOM Representative Director Haruhiro Tsujimoto said the company hoped Street Fighter 6 could sell as much as ten million units […]
