Resident Evil Has Sold Nearly 5.5 Million, Street Fighter 6 Almost 2.5 Million

Capcom had an excellent second quarter for its 2023 fiscal year with income and profit up after its successful launches of its Resident Evil 4 remake and Street Fighter 6.

how well SF VI performs against SFV in comparison ?

I think it will do good because it's not exclusive or on single platform anymore.

Think again.
The only new platform is the one where next to none buy games.

Street Fighter V have sold 7+ million copies on PS4/PC.
A number which SFVI probably won't reach.

I think this is the fate of all fighting games going forward. Their core audience will buy the game at launch, however, the gamers who wish to casually play street fighter will jump on board when it is either lower in price or when the complete edition gets launched. They did this to themselves with all these dlc packs and season passes.

I agree, I grew up going to the arcades and playing Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter. However; as most of us age we just dont have the time to be competitive in fighting games...so its fun to just buy complete editions and run through the story etc. Plus as you said everyone knows that fighting games are not released in a complete state.
