There are 26 World Tour mode Masters in Street Fighter 6, many of whom are encountered as part of the main story. After becoming their student, players can raise their bond with a Master in a number of different ways, such as sparring, completing friendship missions, and giving them special gifts. The goal is to raise this bond to 100, which will provide Street Fighter 6 players with some highly desirable rewards.

Street Fighter 6: Every World Tour Master (& Where to Find Them)
Players can train under all 26 Street Fighter 6 characters in World Tour mode, but finding the location of every master is easier said than done.
The fastest way to max out one’s bond with a Master is by repeatedly giving them gifts, which is remarkably simple given how easy it is for players to farm money quickly in World Tour mode. For maximum efficiency, though, players will need to take a moment to figure out the best gifts to give each Master in World Tour mode and where exactly these gifts can be bought; both of which can be done with the help of this Street Fighter 6 gift guide.
Updated June 4, 2025, by Tom Bowen: Since the release of Street Fighter 6, eight DLC fighters have been added to the roster. Regardless of whether players pay to unlock them, all of the DLC characters can become the player’s master in World Tour Mode, allowing them to learn unique styles and moves and unlock new outfits and artwork. Anybody hoping to max out their bond with the DLC characters will need to know the best SF6 master gifts, all of which can be found in the table below. Players can also find information about each master’s 40UP gift, which, in the case of Elena, is unlocked by completing the “Narumi’s Task” side quest in Metro City, which becomes available after reaching Style Rank 10 with Elena. Elena’s 5UP gift is the Stone Statue, which players can get from the three NPCs in Reniala Remains. They’ll need to defeat Kiptanui using Elena’s style, defeat Nyambura with an Overdrive Art, or hit Merchant Hawker with a 10-hit combo.

There are plenty of other potential gifts that players can get their hands on by fighting, completing friendship missions, or opening chests, all of which can be used to improve their bond with a master. In fact, each master has a gift that will increase their bond with the playable character by 40 points (see below). However, for those looking for a farmable way to raise their bond with a master, the above gifts work best and are the most efficient when it comes to both time and money.

What’s the Reward for Reaching Max Bond Level?
Once players reach a bond level of 100 with a Master they will unlock that Master’s Outfit 2. This will likely be appealing to a lot of players, as each Outfit 2 would usually cost 50 Fighter Coins to unlock, meaning that they can potentially save themselves as many as 1,100 Fighter Coins by playing through World Tour mode and maxing out the bond with every Master. For those wondering, it would cost players just shy of $24 to purchase the required amount of Fighter Coins.
In order to give a gift to a Master, players simply need to approach them and then press either the Square (PlayStation) or X (Xbox) button.
How to Get Max Bond with Every SF6 Master
Players hoping to max out their bond with every Master using gifts should make a point of unlocking the Haggler α Skill as soon as possible. It first becomes available on the first tier of the second skill tree and reduces the total cost of all general store and merchant items by 30%. They should also keep in mind that it’s possible to increase one’s bond with a Master by five points simply through talking with them, and by a further seven by agreeing to spar with them when presented with the opportunity to do so and winning the resulting fight.
As the best gift for each SF6 Master increases their bond level by five, this means that players will need to buy 18 of each gift in order to make up the extra 88 points. This will set players back 1,422,540 Zenny with the Haggler α Skill unlocked and 2,032,200 Zenny without it. Of course, if players aren’t in a hurry and are happy to wait for more sparring opportunities to show up, they can lower this cost quite a bit. Likewise, certain NPCs will drop Master gifts when defeated, which can further reduce the player’s total outlay.
