Some eagle-eyed art critics have noticed something interesting about the Street Fighter 6 logo. The logo looks similar to a stock image found at Adobe's Stock Image Shop. Fans of the fighting game series are unhappy with Logo's massive departure from all previous ones.
As these things work on social media, it quickly became a storm of joke tweets and complaints. Ars Technica creative director Aurich Lawson jumped in to point out that the logo is identical to the one found on Adobe's stock image site.

I don't even know what to say. I knew it was generic but I didn't realize it was this bad. They searched for "SF" on a stock logo site and rounded a couple corners and added the 6

It's.. pretty much the same.
The Street Fighter 6 logo has apparently put in some amount of work. The hexagon border has been tapered. The letters have been thickened. The middle-right of the 'F' has been swung down a bit, and of course the '6' has been added. There's also been some weathering done throughout the logo, and a spray paint effect added around the whole thing.

Capcom's announcement was actually just a teaser trailer, which featured series head Ryu and relative newcomer Luke. The release date is still a long way off, most likely. If Street Fighter 6 isn't coming out long while Capcom has had plenty of time to take another swing at the logo.
