Capcom recently revealed the Season 3 DLC roster for Street Fighter 6, confirming Sagat, C. Viper, Alex and Ingrid would be joining the battle. Now, in an update during its Spotlight broadcast today, the company has locked in a date for the first fighter.

Along with a brief teaser today, it’s now been confirmed the classic character and “emperor of Muay Thai” Sagat will be returning on 5th August 2025. You’ll also be able to experience his themed level, located deep within the mountains of Thailand.

In the lead up to this release date, the “Sagat Arrives” Fighting Pass will be made available on 4th July 2025. It comes packed with EX Colors, more titles and music, avatar gear, new challenger screen illustrations and effects, emotes, stickers and the playable classic game Tiger Road.

Capcom has also provided an update about the paid ‘Outfit 4’ content – confirming seven characters will be getting these outfits first, with the rest of the roster to follow. All of this content is in the “final stages of tweaking” and the team will release Sagat gameplay at a later date.
