Capcom’s decision to charge fans to watch the Capcom Cup tournament finals has prompted an apology from Street Fighter 6 developers, despite their lack of involvement in the decision-making process.
The Capcom Cup is an annual tournament for the Street Fighter series. The positive reception to Street Fighter 6 so far means that all eyes are on the event, especially with its million-dollar prize pool at stake.
The next Capcom Cup is set to take place in Japan, meaning most fans will have to watch it online. Unfortunately, Capcom recently announced that it’s charging a pay-per-view fee for those who want to see the finals.
The Street Fighter 6 Dev Team Is Sorry For The Capcom Cup PPV Controversy
Naturally, the community is in an uproar over Capcom deciding to charge money for an esports event. This has prompted a response from Street Fighter 6 director Takuyaki Nakayama, who apologized for the situation on Twitter/X, even though he clarified that his team had no part in the decision.
Nakayama stressed that another team was responsible for decisions regarding esports. He even joked that he would delete the comment if he got in trouble with the higher-ups.
The fact that the director of Street Fighter 6 is speaking out on the subject shows just how silly of an idea it is. The idea of these events is to engage the community and make them want to play your game. Fighting games are ideal for competitive gaming, with exciting 1v1 matches, which is why clips of high-level play can attract new players.
Charging to see the finals of the tournament is a bad idea because it will diminish all interest in the event, and it will quickly become an avenue for pirated streams, thereby eliminating the entire point of charging in the first place. Hopefully, Capcom quickly reverses this decision and makes the Capcom Cup finals free for all, as it should be.
