Street Fighter 6 players have known the full contents of the game’s Year 2 Character Pass since June last year, and we’ve almost reached the finish line for it — but not quite yet.
Elena has yet to make an appearance as the last Season 2 character, but that could be changing today.
Capcom is putting SF6 under server maintenance later today, March 31, starting at 8 p.m. PDT for around four hours.
This presumably signifies the launch of a new Fighting Pass for SF6, but Capcom suspiciously hasn’t revealed what that is just yet.
That could very well point to it being the Elena Arrives pass that the developers put out for the launch of every new character for SF6 though we can’t say for sure just yet obviously.
If the fighting pass is indeed for Elena, we could be getting her teaser trailer tonight and / or a showcase for the fighting pass.
This would match up with our previous prediction from last week that Elena would be revealed very soon given the tight release window they have to work with.
Capcom will presumably release Elena and the Season 3 update before Evo Japan 2025 starting on May 9, and even if they wait until after, the Capcom Pro Tour calendar doesn’t clear up for them either.
Combo Breaker 2025 is also taking place towards the end of May on the CPT, so there’s only a few windows remaining that Capcom could release Elena in.
And we’ll hopefully be learning more about that very shortly now.
But if the Fighting Pass is for something else, it likely means we’ll be waiting until at least May for Elena.
