When we launched the Razer Kitsune, we promised a device that not only meets the demands of today's fighting game community but also evolves with it. True to our word, I am excited to share something exciting that we've been working on—a significant update that's all about fine-tuning your control in the heat of battle.

What's the Update About?
The heart of this update is a new feature called SOCD Cleaning. Let me break it down: SOCD stands for Simultaneous Opposing Cardinal Directions—which happens when you press opposite directions at the same time on your controller. It's a common scenario, that can change how you fully control your character. If you're eager to update, the Firmware 2.0 Update for the Razer Kitsune is available now over at mysupport.Razer.com. It's a straightforward process, and it ensures your Kitsune is not just up to date but also customized to fit your play style even better.

I am steeped in the culture of fighting games so it feels like destiny that I get to introduce you to a project that I'm so incredibly fortunate to have helped create.My journey with fighting games started with Street Fighter 2 and Mortal Kombat 1 back in the 90s, and my love for the genre has been a relentless engine in my life ever since.

Over the years, this passion led me to the frontlines of the fighting game community (FGC)/esports scene. Traveling to tournaments such as EVO, Combo Breaker, CEO, Tokyo Game Show, and more, I've been fortunate to make a career of it as well as developing peripherals for major players in the FGC community near and far. It's in this spirit that I'm thrilled to finally unveil a project that we at Razer have been passionately crafting the arcade controller that's poised to redefine the world of fighting games: the Razer Kitsune.

Capcom has kindly provided a new benchmarking tool for folks who are wondering whether their souped-up PC gaming rigs can run the upcoming seventh (not sixth, despite the title) main entry in the Street Fighter series with aplomb - the testing suite can be downloaded from here. The development team's introductory message states: "The Street Fighter 6 Benchmark Tool monitors gameplay on the Street Fighter 6 demo and calculates a score that indicates your PC's performance. The results of the benchmarking will be shown as follows, with a score of 91 or above demonstrating that your PC can play the game with ease."

The explanation continues: "If your PC does not meet the system requirements needed to run this benchmarking software, it may not launch properly. If that happens, please reconfirm that you satisfy the criteria listed on this page under System Requirements." Street Fighter 6 is arriving this Friday (June 2), so Capcom's benchmarking tool only gives a little bit of advanced notice - an unfortunate few who "cannot operate the game" (with a 0-30 score) will need to make necessary PC upgrades in time for launch day action. Or they could simply buy the bare minimum point of entry on console: a PlayStation 4 Slim or the cheapest current generation system - Xbox Series S.
