Street Fighter 6 has introduced many ways for first-time fans to get into the long-running fighting franchise. This includes deep tutorials and brand-new control schemes. The Dynamic control scheme allows players to join in the fun with very easy single-button moves but isn't allowed in online play. Beginners can learn the ropes and play online with the Modern control scheme that uses simplified inputs. Of course, the Classic controls are always there for veteran players and newcomers willing to learn them. Try them all out and see what's most comfortable.

Once players have found their preferred control scheme they may want to apply it to all characters. Street Fighter 6 starts out with the Modern control type set as the default. Follow these steps to set a control type across the board and never have to worry about jumping into a fight with the wrong setup again.
