Capcom Restores Free Viewing Option For Street Fighter World Championship After Backlash



Capcom has announced that its plan for the Capcom Cup finals and Street Fighter League World Championship as a $40 pay-per-view have been reworked to include a cheaper price and a free viewing option following a backlash from Street Fighter 6 fans.

Prior to this year, the Capcom Cup finals and Street Fighter League World Championship were free-to-watch events. However, Capcom’s decision to move the event to pay-per-view only triggered an angry response from fans. In the face of that response, Capcom backed down.
