Capcom’s critically acclaimed fighting title, Street Fighter 6, has officially launched its first demo for the Nintendo Switch 2, bringing a host of new features to eager players.

This marks a significant milestone, as it is the inaugural demo for Nintendo’s highly anticipated handheld-console hybrid, the Nintendo Switch 2.

The playable preview is now exclusively accessible via the Switch 2 eShop. Street Fighter 6, developed by Capcom, has been celebrated for revitalizing the iconic fighting series, and its launch on Nintendo Switch 2 further expands the game’s reach.

According to Capcom representatives, the development team has made a dedicated effort to optimize the Street Fighter 6 experience for Switch 2 users, including the integration of both fresh content and enhanced gameplay modes tailored to the new hardware. The newly released demo is notably comprehensive.

Players can dive into "World Tour," the story-driven single-player mode where, despite progress not carrying over to the full version, users are allowed to save and transfer custom avatar appearances.

Other demo offerings include access to "Fighting Ground," which features an array of tutorials and character guides.

Local multiplayer is robustly supported, with modes such as "One on One," "Gyro Battle," "Extreme Battle," "Calorie Contest," and local wireless Avatar Matches available for hands-on play.

It’s worth noting that key online features—including the Battle Hub—are reserved for the complete version of Street Fighter 6. An exciting addition for Nintendo fans comes in the form of amiibo support.

Both amiibo figures and compatible cards are now being offered, enhancing the gameplay experience with collectible and interactive elements. Street Fighter 6 is available now for the Nintendo Switch 2, and fans can access the demo by navigating to the game’s listing on the Nintendo eShop.

Capcom’s focus on adding unique content—such as Local Wireless One on One battles and new party modes—demonstrates its commitment to delivering a compelling fighter for the next generation of Switch hardware.
