Sagat, the final boss from the original 1987 Street Fighter, returns in Street Fighter 6 as its first Year 3 character. Available now across all platforms, players can try out his Muay Thai-inspired moveset, complete with uppercuts, knees, and an added twist…fireballs!
He will be joined by a new stage named Proud Spire, which features a calming temple and a peaceful Buddha statue in the background, as well as two different outfits. Outfit 1 is a newer look featuring darker elements, while Outfit 2 is an ode to his Street Fighter II appearance, where he dons Muay Thai garb. Outfit 2 can be earned in World Tour by maxing out your bond with Sagat or purchased via Fighter Coins.
Sagat’s Muay Thai moveset includes:
- High Tiger Shot: Fire a ki blast forward to hit standing opponents, with the blast fired at different speeds depending on the button being pressed.
- Low Tiger Shot: Fire a ki blast forward that can hit crouching opponents. Use both fireballs to keep opponents guessing!
- Tiger Uppercut: A powerful anti-air attack which the heavy version can be held down to send opponents flying.
- Tiger Knee Crush: Leap forward and catch opponents off guard with a powerful knee attack.
- Tiger Nexus: A brand new special move where Sagat strikes with his knee and can then
be followed up with three different kicks – Mighty Tiger, Greedy Tiger, or Nova Tiger. - Tiger Cannon: Sagat’s Level 1 Super Art, where he fires a mighty Tiger Shot.
- Tiger Vanquisher: Sagat’s Level 3 Super Art unleashes all of his power in a series of devastating kicks and a beastly uppercut.
- Savage Tiger: Sagat’s Level 2 Super Art, where after Sagat leaps forward, this Super Art can be followed up with four moves:
- Savage Tiger Raid: The highest damage of all the options.
- Savage Tiger Zenith: Launches the opponent in the air and can be followed up with more attacks.
- Savage Tiger Pendulum: Allows Savage Tiger Stomp: Leaves Sagat close to the enemy, allowing for better “oki”.
- Tiger Vanquisher: Sagat’s Level 3 Super Art unleashes all of his power in a series of devastating kicks and a beastly uppercut
Sagat can be unlocked through the Year 3 Ultimate Pass and Year 3 Character Pass – both of which will also unlock the remaining Year 3 characters, including C. Viper, pro wrestler Alex (Early Spring 2026), and the energetic Ingrid (Late Spring 2026), plus new Outfit colors and Drive Tickets. Both passes are available now across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam.
Capcom recently showed off more details for C. Viper, as well as a first look at new swimsuit-themed Outfit 4 costumes for Street Fighter 6, at EVO Las Vegas. Click here to read more.
