All Street Fighter 6 commentators
Here are all of the commentators who you can have talking over your matches in Street Fighter 6. There are two groups of commentators, English-speaking and Japanese-speaking commentators.
English Commentators | Japanese Commentators |
Steve "Tasty Steve" Scott (play-by-play) | Ryutaro "Aru" Noda (play-by-play) |
Jeremy "Vicious" Lopez (play-by-play) | Kosuke Hiraiwa (play-by-play) |
Thea Trinidad (colour) | His Excellency Demon Kakka (colour) |
James "jchenzor" Chen (colour) | Hikaru Takahashi (colour) |
The commentators are broken down into two categories, play-by-play, and colour. Play-by-play commentators call the action as it happens, like a running commentary of everything that happens. Colour commentators are there to back them up, and add their own flair to the commentary team.
