Street Fighter 6’s next big set of changes have arrived with its Version 202405 Battle Change List. Akuma has arrived, closing out the Year 1 DLC content, but so have a ton of changes for the entire roster. From A.K.I to Zangief, a multitude of balances, bug fixes, and tweaks have come into play that are meant to fine-tune each fighter.

Street Fighter 6 Version 202405 patch notes

Capcom released the Street Fighter 6 Version 202405 Battle Change update and its accompanying patch notes on the Street Fighter 6 website this week.

Universal Changes

Modern Controls

We have changed how Assisted Combos work when the player doesn't have enough Drive or Super Art gauge. Additionally, some characters had difficult to use Assisted Combo routes, so we also changed those. There are some characters who have had the first attack of an Assisted Combo or their practical use changed, but we feel that in the long term these changes will benefit players using this control scheme.

Drive Reversals

Without an invincible attack, it proved difficult to deal with strong wake-up pressure, so now all characters can perform a Drive Reversal on their wake-up recovery as a way to deal with this. This technique is useful against throws or big attacks, but may be difficult to use against attacks with slow start-up or light attacks, etc.

Drive and Perfect Parry

As noted above, we have looked at adjusting the risk/return for Perfect Parry. We felt that the risk of looking to score a Perfect Parry while out of throw range gave too high of a return, and depending on the situation, it proved more beneficial to get the Perfect Parry instead of going on the attack, so by increasing its overall length and expanding the throw hitbox, we're looking to make it easier to take risks in these situations. Additionally, in order for Perfect Parries to not change the course of the match too much, after a successful Perfect Parry, the player will receive less meter gain.

For Drive Parries, the hurtbox after the Perfect Parry window has passed (frame 3 and later) is expanding, allowing it to absorb attacks from further away. After absorbing an attack, the time before the Drive gauge begins to replenish has also been shortened, making Drive Parry a more effective tactic primarily against projectiles.

Back Throws

One way of reducing the return a player gets from a Perfect Parry that we have made is an adjustment to how back throws are handled when performed with your back to the corner. Characters who could perform a back throw into the corner, and then repeatedly throw opponents in any situation will now have a harder time doing so.

Reworking Successful Command Inputs

We've made some changes with the aim of reducing the number of missed or accidental special moves.

1. Adjusted special move input recognition frames

For every command we made adjustments so special moves will come out less often if you complete a command, and then press a button slightly afterwards.

2. Adjusted ↓↘→ or ↓↙← in mid-air

Mid-air commands often require the player to perform the inputs quickly, and certain inputs tended to miss, so we have relaxed the input requirements.

3. Adjusted ↓↓ commands

This is an adjustment to avoid accidental Cancel Drive Rushes. During sequences such as ↓ + Light Punch > Neutral + Medium Punch + Medium Kick > ↓ + Light Punch, ↓↓ commands should no longer come out by accident.

4. Pressing Medium, Heavy attacks at the same time will not perform transition techniques. This change is primarily aimed at techniques that are cancelable or are target combo starters, and special moves that have transition attacks or low recovery, etc.

We've made changes so that with Cancel Drive Rush and Drive Impact, once their recovery is over and players go for an immediate Drive Rush, etc. mistaken inputs would not unintentionally perform transition techniques. Please note that this adjustment is only when the player presses both buttons at exactly the same time.

Combo Counts

Combo counts are mentioned in the Battle Change List entries found on the official Buckler's Boot Camp site, and details on the terms used there can be found below.

- Combo Count Initial Value

The numerical value used to indicate when an air combo starts from a particular move. The smaller a move's combo count initial value is, the easier it is for that move to begin an air combo, and vice-versa.

- Combo Count Additional Value A numerical value that increases when a move is incorporated into an air combo. The smaller a move's combo count additional value is, the easier it is for that move to begin an air combo, and vice-versa.

- Combo Count Upper Limit A numerical value used to determine up to which point a move can land in an air combo. The larger a move's combo count upper limit is, the easier that move can be incorporated into a combo.

Input Recognition - Adjustment

The Input Recognition Frame, which is the number of frames within which you must press the attack button after a special move command is inputted in order for the game to recognize you are performing a special move, has been adjusted per command.

1. For ↓↘→ or ↓↙← commands while standing on the ground, the Input Recognition Frame has been changed from 11 to 9 frames.

This means the attack button must be pressed within 9 frames of the final forward or back command being input for it to be recognized and have the special move be performed.

For ↓↘→ or ↓↙← commands while in the air, the Input Recognition Frame remains at 11 frames.

2. For ←↙↓↘→ or →↘↓↙← commands, the Input Recognition Frame has been changed from 12 frames to 9 frames.

Mid-air ↓↘→ and ↓↙← Command Moves - Adjustment

Considering the fastest possible input necessary for instant aerial commands, the input difficulty has been eased slightly, and ↓↙← + K commands can now be performed using any downward direction (↙ or ↓ or ↘) followed by ↙← + K.

↓↓ Button Commands - Adjustment

If Medium Punch+Medium Kick are input between a double Down tap, no command will be performed.

This adjustment was made so that if you immediately double tap Down after a Cancel Drive Rush from a crouching attack, a double Down command move will not be performed by accident.

Jump Landing Hurtboxes - Adjustment

The following characters have had their hurtbox while landing from a jump moved upwards to match other characters, as it was previously lower and caused unanticipated attacks to hit them: Chun-Li, Dhalsim, Lily, A.K.I.

Stun Timing Adjustments - Bug Fix

Fixed an issue where if an opponent in Burnout blocks a Drive Impact a certain distance away from the corner of the screen, and the player performs a technique just before stun occurs, no combo scaling would be applied on the combo after the stun.

Drive Parry - Adjustment

1. Throw hurtbox has been expanded while the technique is being performed.
2. Hurtbox from the 3rd frame and later has been expanded
3. The shortest possible active parry hitbox time has changed from 8 frames to 12 frames.
4. Recovery after the active frames has changed from 29 frames to 33 frames.
5. After absorbing an attack, the time until the Drive Gauge starts to auto regenerate has changed from 60 frames to 20 frames.

Perfect Parry - Adjustment

The overall gauge fluctuation from a counter attack after a Perfect Parry has been reduced. This adjustment is not just for the first attack, but affects all attacks until the combo ends.

1. Super Art gauge increase has changed from 100% to 80% for both the attacker and damage-taker.
2. Drive gauge increase for the attacker has changed from 100% to 50%
3. Drive gauge decrease for the damage-taker has changed from 100% to 50%

Drive Reversal - Adjustment

1. Recovery on block has changed from -8 to -6 frames
2. Attack hitbox has expanded downward so techniques with a low profile can no longer avoid this attack.
3. Pushback distance on close-range block is now almost equal for all characters.

Note: Certain character updates to pushback on block, collision pushboxes, hurtboxes and distance traveled are being made.

(Bug Fix) Damage no longer increases on counter hit.

Recovery Drive Reversal - Adjustment

Drive Reversal can now be performed during the recovery from a knockdown. While the command is still the same (→+HP+HK), you can simply perform it early and hold down the input to perform the technique on recovery.

Note: This version of the Drive Reversal will not darken the screen or stop time, and the attack start-up is 18 frames, which is 2 frames faster than the normal Drive Reversal.

Light Attack (Standing / Crouching) - Adjustment

Initial scaling has changed from 10% to 20%.

Cross-Up Capable Jumping Light Attacks - Adjustment

Because every character has a different hit and block recovery against their opponent, we've matched the longest advantage time, so some character's jumping weak attack on block or guard will have an additional 1 frame of recovery.

This change applies to Luke, Jamie, Marisa, Lily, Juri, Ryu, E. Honda, Guile, Ken and A.K.I.
