Capcom has confirmed a release date for Street Fighter 6 DLC character Sagat alongside new swimsuit costumes for the entire roster.

Street Fighter 6 downloadable content character Sagat is set to launch on August 5th. The new swimsuits will start releasing on the same day with outfits for Cammy, Luke, Chun-Li, Manon, Jamie, Kimberly, and A.K.I., with more to be added later.

Here’s a rundown on the character, plus new screenshots and a trailer:

Visit the Mountains of Thailand – in Street Fighter 6

The emperor of Muay Thai hits the streets as Sagat joins the Street Fighter 6 roster starting on August 5 with crossplay support across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, PC, and now the newly released Nintendo Switch 2! Players will be able to travel to the awe-inspiring mountains of Thailand – and potentially even recognize a sizable statue in the background – as they visit and learn from Sagat as the newest Master in World Tour.

To celebrate Sagat’s upcoming release, the Sagat Arrives Fighting Pass will be packed full of Sagat-inspired content starting on July 4 and will also include content that can be used in Fighting Ground like new EX colors for Ryu and Ken!
