Street Fighter 6 recently launched its Season 3 update featuring Elena, but excitement is tempered by the discovery of a game-breaking glitch. This issue particularly affects Guile, allowing him to counter various attacks effortlessly when under pressure. By executing a specific option select, players can block meaty attacks, tech throws, and counter shimmies with Guile’s crouching light kick, a move reminiscent of old techniques from Street Fighter 4.
Despite Capcom’s efforts to eliminate such option selects in recent titles, this glitch has resurfaced, raising concerns among the community. Currently, only Guile seems impacted, with other characters performing a standard throw tech instead. The origins of this glitch remain unclear, though recent adjustments to Guile’s move set might be the cause.
In addition to addressing this unforeseen issue, Capcom inadvertently previewed a new Juri costume linked to a crossover with the K-Pop group aespa. As players await an emergency patch, the competitive atmosphere of Street Fighter 6 remains electric.
