Street Fighter 6 was first released on June 2, 2023, for PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. The new update includes a fighting pass for the Darkstalkers Gala, which has been announced by Capcom. Capcom has posted a new trailer that speaks about the pass.
Jon Talbain is a werewolf character from the Darkstalkers series. Based on the trailer, one might think that he’s a playable character but that’s not the case. Many prizes can be one and Jon Talbain’s werewolf gear is one of them. It can be customized to look like him. There has already been plenty of information released about him, like how he comes with an emote so the player Avatar can howl.
Besides Jon Talbain gear, players can also receive Darkstalker-themed photo frames of Jedab, emotes, 3 new music, stickers of Morrigan, special effects, an addition of the original Night Warriors to the Classic Games collection, and even more. There will be weekly challenges that can be completed.
The fighting pass will have free and paid options for prizes. The items that cost money are a part of the premium rewards section. Eventhubs states that the premium Darkstalkers pass will cost 250 fighter coins, which is about 5 USD. The money spent can be earned back if the player completes 30 levels of rewards before the time is up. According to Anime News Network, they will also be able to purchase characters individually as well. Some of these characters are returning but are new to this updated event.
The Darkstalkers Fighting Gala Pass will be available by the end of this month, in October. The exact date is still unknown but players will receive more information about the pass as the month goes on.
