How to Unlock Skins in Street Fighter 6: Complete Guide to Outfits, Collabs, and Style From bonding with Masters in World Tour to snagging premium collab costumes, here’s every way to customize your fighter’s look in Street Fighter 6
There are two main ways to unlock skins in Street Fighter 6:
- Free unlocks earned through World Tour mode by increasing your bond with Masters.
- Paid skins purchased directly from the in-game store using Fighter Coins.
Both methods give you access to alternate outfits and color variants, but some skins — especially collaboration and limited-time cosmetics — can only be obtained through Fighter Coins.
🌍 Unlocking Skins for Free in World Tour Mode
The World Tour mode is where you can earn alternate outfits without spending a cent. As you explore locations and meet legendary fighters like Ryu, Chun-Li, and Cammy, you’ll gradually build a Bond Level with each Master.
When your Bond Level hits 100, you’ll unlock that character’s special alternate costume (also known as Costume 2).
Here’s how to build Bond faster:
- Talk to Masters and complete their Friendship Missions.
- Gift them items they personally like.
- Spar regularly to strengthen your connection.
💡 Pro Tip: Pay attention to dialogue hints! Chun-Li loves teas and traditional gifts like Elegant Fans and Jade Bracelets, while Ryu prefers practical items like martial arts gear and nature-themed trinkets.
To speed things up, focus on earning Zenny, the in-game currency used to buy gifts. You can earn Zenny by:
- Completing missions and side quests.
- Playing mini-games (like Scrap Heap, which gives around 2,500 Zenny per run).
- Logging in daily for bonuses.
Fans estimate you’ll need about 1.8 million Zenny to unlock all outfits via gifts — so plan your grind wisely!
💰 Buying Skins with Fighter Coins
If grinding isn’t your thing, you can unlock costumes instantly by purchasing them with Fighter Coins, Street Fighter 6’s premium currency.
- Skins range from 50 to 300 Fighter Coins, depending on rarity.
- Costume 2 for each Master can be bought this way without needing Bond Level 100.
- Costume 3 and seasonal skins (like the swimsuit set) are exclusive to Fighter Coins.
There’s no way to earn Fighter Coins through gameplay — they must be purchased with real money. You can access the store anytime from the Battle Hub.
🤝 Collaboration & Limited-Time Skins
Capcom regularly rolls out special crossover events featuring unique collab skins.
Some of the most notable include:
- TMNT x SF6 — Play as your favorite Turtle with outfits inspired by Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo. Available in the Battle Hub’s Crossover Items tab for 750 coins each.
- æspa + Naevis Collab — A futuristic Juri outfit inspired by the K-pop virtual idol, available until July 3, 2026.
- Spy x Family Crossover — A limited event that has now ended, but may hint at future anime collaborations.
Keep an eye on the Battle Hub and official announcements for upcoming partnerships — Capcom has made it clear this is just the beginning.
🥋 Why Skins Matter in Competitive Play
Beyond aesthetics, skins have a real impact in the competitive scene. High-level players often use their signature colors or outfits for recognition and mental edge. For fans, these custom looks make it easier to track who’s who during fast-paced matches.
Pro players frequently coordinate their Street Fighter 6 look with their real-life style, creating a seamless brand both on and off stage.
🎨 Quick Style Tips
If you want to stand out online:
- Go bold — Red and gold tones give off aggression and flair.
- Stay sleek — Darker colors emphasize precision and control.
- Match your playstyle — Your outfit can reflect your mindset in battle.
Your costume isn’t just fashion — it’s identity. Experiment, mix it up, and make your fighter’s look as memorable as your gameplay.
