Capcom stated that this new role for Naevis will offer players “an exciting, interactive layer to their matches,” marrying the worlds of K-pop and competitive gaming in a seamless fusion. Beyond character updates, the Street Fighter 6 Battle Hub—a central social space for players—will undergo a transformation with Aespa-inspired decorations and visuals.

Throughout the event period, players who log in will have access to exclusive in-game rewards, such as special titles, device wallpapers, and photo frames, all themed around the collaboration.

Capcom has also released an official trailer showcasing the new content, exciting long-time fans and newcomers alike. Street Fighter 6 continues to thrive thanks to Capcom’s consistent roll-out of content through collaborations, seasonal updates, and player-centric events.

The integration of musical and virtual pop culture elements reflects the developer’s ambition to explore new partnerships and enrich the player experience.

Street Fighter 6 is available now on multiple platforms, including the Nintendo Switch, and the eShop features regular updates to support DLC and content expansions.
