I was initially confused when this was mentioned at Evo but now it’s making a lot of sense and it could be a gold mine for Capcom.

Just like how I used to spend money collecting skins as if they were figurines in Fortnite, from RoboCop to NFL players to The Terminator to pretty much any IP that I loved in the past… This can be applied in Street Fighter 6 to your custom character.

I don’t know and I don’t think that the IPs explored will be as pervasive as Fortnite. But this certainly opens a lot more doors than adding DLC characters would.

Akin to Fortnite, there is no need to create an entire character moveset it’s just using the same moves available to all created characters. It is simply a visual skin that doesn’t change anything about the gameplay. So while Mortal Kombat and other games need a whole process to add new characters, including gameplay testing, all Capcom has to do is create visual skins just like how epic does for Fortnite.

So this is potentially huge.
