Street Fighter 6 is currently undergoing server maintenance for the game’s new update, and we can now see what all it’s going to include.
Capcom has now released the official Street Fighter 6 patch notes for the August update that brings new content and character adjustments to the game.
This update not only brings Sagat and his new stage, but also the first batch of Outfit 4 DLC for Street Fighter 6, which we just got a trailer for at Evo 2025.
On top of that, the developers are also adding a few new replay and matchmaking features to the game to improve the experience further.
There are a total of 17 characters receiving adjustments in this patch, though, they are primarily focused around bug / issue fixes and how the fighters will interact with Sagat.
Those are Luke, Manon, Kimberly, Marisa, Cammy, E. Honda, Blanka, Chun-Li, Zangief, Dhalsim, Rashid, A.K.I., Ed, Akuma, M. Bison, Terry and Elena.
So that means no Ryu nerfs or anything this time around.
You can check out the full list of patch notes below, which can also be found on the official Street Fighter website.

Overdrive Sprint (Modern) (→ + Assist + Special Move) Bug Fix

Changed high positioned hurtboxes when crouching to be invincible to projectiles.
Please note that this adjustment was made so that it doesn’t interfere with Sagat’s High Tiger Shot.
Drive Impact Bug Fix
Fixed an issue where the armor hitbox on the back and other parts of the body were processed differently, resulting in the armor being able to absorb more than 3 attacks.

2) Updated so that when the attack is absorbed by a Perfect Parry, the amount of Drive gauge obtained is the same as other Super Arts (20000).
Drive Parry Bug Fix
The hurtbox and throw hurtbox for Drive Parry from frame 3 and later was slightly smaller than the expansion of the basic hurtbox in the June adjustment, so we expanded the hurtbox forward so it matches the basic hurtbox.
Crouching Medium Punch Adjustment
Changed high positioned hurtboxes when crouching to be invincible to projectiles.
Please note that this adjustment was made so that it doesn’t interfere with Sagat’s High Tiger Shot.
Double Lariat (Modern Controls) (Medium Attack + Heavy Attack) Bug Fix
In the June adjustment, we made an adjustment so that pressing all three attack buttons during Burnout would perform a Double Lariat instead of a normal throw. However in certain situations this would result in Double Lariat being performed unintentionally, so we have rolled back this adjustment to pre-June settings.
Note: We plan on reimplementing this change in a future update after further investigation.
Tundra Storm (↓↓ + Heavy Kick) Adjustment
Counter hitbox expanded upward.
Please note that this adjustment was made so that it could also apply to Sagat’s standing heavy kick and High Step Kick.
