Capcom has revealed a brand-new collaboration between its fighting game Street Fighter 6 and the K-pop band Aespa, which will offer a bonus outfit that comes with a catch that players have to be mindful of. Street Fighter 6 first leaped onto the market back in 2023, followed by a Nintendo Switch 2 port that was released with the console’s debut. Within this entry, which was developed in Capcom’s own RE Engine, support for cross-platform play and rollback netcode was included, alongside featuring the game’s three main modes: Fighting Ground, World Tour, and Battle Hub.
Capcom is always keeping players’ engagement at the forefront regarding upcoming content, and new details about Street Fighter 6’s Sagat, the next DLC character, were recently shared with the community. Adding to the developer’s exciting production line, fans now have a limited-time collaboration to grab while the canvas is hot.

Announced via the official Street Fighter Twitter account, Capcom confirmed Street Fighter 6 was joining forces with the South Korean K-pop band Aespa. The crossover will offer themed collaboration items, a new commentator from visual artist Naevis, and a special Juri’s Collaboration Outfit coupled with a bonus K-pop-styled remix of Juri’s theme and Aespa-inspired visual effects before matches. Joining the K-pop collab, Street Fighter 6 recently teamed up with Monster Hunter Wilds, Capcom’s latest addition to the long-running action RPG series, and the fighting game dished up a crossover with Overwatch this year as well.

The catch, however, is that Juri’s outfit will only be available for one year, and all collaboration items will be available from July 4, 2025. Street Fighter 6 players had previously complained about the cost of TMNT skins, and some fans were keeping their fingers crossed that the K-pop collab would offer the outfit as a free bonus instead of a paid cosmetic. Another fan noted that Juri is about to have the most outfits in the fighting game, and the majority of the comments agreed that the collaboration skin was “clean.”
Following the exciting crossover, the Capcom community still has a lot of DLC characters to look forward to in Street Fighter 6’s Year 3 release schedule. After Sagat debuts, C. Viper is next in line and the last DLC fighter to be added to the game this year. However, Alex and Ingrid have already been confirmed for a 2026 release, and players are reminded that even without the Year 3 character pass, all four DLC characters will appear in Masters in the World Tour mode.
