RE Engine Mastery: How Street Fighter 6 Achieves Photorealistic Combat at 120fps

Capcom’s RE Engine redefines fighting games with Street Fighter 6:

  • 4K/120fps on PS5/XSX with ray-traced stage reflections (e.g., puddles in Metro City)

  • “Material-Based Impact” – fabric tears during grabs, sweat droplets fly during supers

  • DualSense Haptics: Feel parry vibrations in controller grips
    “Real-time muscle deformation took 5,000 simulation hours,” reveals Art Director Kaname Fujioka. The new Drive System creates particle explosions visible in character pupils during slow-mo replays.
