Capcom announced that Street Fighter 6 sold three million copies as of January 3, 2024. It was launched on June 2, 2023, so it needed almost exactly half a year to reach this milestone. The developer stated that this success brings the total number of sales for the entire Street Fighter series, which has been around since 1987, to over 52 million.
