Capcom just announced not long ago that the 2026 "Street Fighter 6" final of its game title event, which began in 2013, will be changed to a pay-per-view event, which quickly caused huge public controversy. On October 2, "Street Fighter 6" development director Nakayama, director of "Street Fighter 6", responded to the matter, saying that the development team, including himself, was also shocked by the news and was in contact with other departments in the society.

•Zhongshan Guizhi said (Capcom Cup finals network release charges) This may sound strange, but it is true.The tasks of income goals and distribution fundamentally vary from department to department.Even the development team was surprised by the announcement (at least Matsumoto and I were shocked at the venue).That said, since this happened within the same company, Matsumoto and I were surprised by it…

• According to the director's words, this decision was obviously made by Capcom's senior management and marketing department, and it has nothing to do with the technical team that only engages in game development. However, there are voices that the outside world agree with or opposes the decision, and it depends on how Capcom's senior management responds to the players' voices.
