Fans of Street Fighter 6 are criticizing Capcom for its "awful monetization" practices after the release of Outfit 3, which can only be purchased with real-world money and not unlocked through gameplay. The outfits are priced at 300 Fighter Coins, but Capcom only sells the premium currency in bundles, forcing players to spend around $10 or more to purchase a single outfit. Additionally, there is no discounted bundle option for buying all the outfits, resulting in a total cost of £80 / $100 for all 18 launch characters. The community has called for a boycott and expressed frustration over the high prices, comparing them to the cost of the game itself. This is not the first time Capcom has faced backlash for aggressive monetization practices.
