Capcom has confirmed a second Street Fighter 6 closed beta test will take place over the weekend beginning 16th December 2022 on PS5. Anyone who took part in the first one automatically qualifies for the second, and new players can apply through here. Due to code selling during the first beta, you'll need to link a Capcom ID to your application this time around. Redemption keys will be distributed in a lottery system rather than on a first-come-first-served basis.
The same content will be available in the second closed beta as was in the first, but this time around you'll be able to test a new feature to reduce input delay. "Turning this option on will shorten the gap between your inputs and the action happening on-screen," the Street Fighter website explains. "This is especially useful if you are using a monitor capable of displaying at 120Hz on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S."
And while you will have access to the same eight-character roster, some have been adjusted so they may play a little differently. For example, Chun-Li has had how many frames some of her moves take to perform changed while a few of Ryu's attacks have been now been made strikes instead of projectiles.
Street Fighter 6 is still slated to launch for PS5, PS4 at some point next year, but a firm release date hasn't been shared yet. Will you take part in this second closed beta test? Fists at the ready in the comments below.

Dang it. I was hoping the next beta would be open so I wouldn't have to pray to RNGesus. Oh well. Hear my prayers RNGesus!
I didn't get in the first time but I wasn't home that weekend anyway. This time I'm not going anywhere so it would be nice to try it (but also Guitly Gear crossplay releases around the same time and it's Crisis Core week so I'll have things to do anyway)
The first beta impressed me enough to where I’ll be buying. Looking forward to a likely early release next year.
Anyone else having trouble to log in? I'm 90% sure I'm using the right password. And if I try "forgot my password" there's an error message every time.

this is wonky why can’t i just use my psn SFV account ID information . might as well just wait til it comes out , making betas have hoops to jump through is just pretentious as ***** . ***** marketing
I never deleted the game off my PS5 so im set. I only need to download the update.😀 Hopefully I can get the Victrix Pro BFG by then and test it out on this this.
I hope I get picked this time. I want to try it out so bad.
Fingers crossed 🤞
Hope I get in this time. Interesting about the new steps that need to be taken to register. I already had my system linked to my CAPCOM ID. I guess that will stop people from reselling beta codes.

Maybe it's something regional I dunno. Can't get it to work.
