* NostalgiaLevel: ''SFV'' featured a selection of classic stages from previous games remastered in 3D. However, ''6'' takes things a step further, presenting ''elevated'' versions of classic stages that are an {{Homage}} to the originals, taking inspiration from the overall vibe and setting but putting a more detailed and visually-impressive spin on things. Examples include "Ranger's Hut" (based on Blanka's ''II'' stage), "Dhalsimer Temple" (based on Dhalsim's ''II'' stage), and "Carrier Byron Taylor" (based on Guile's ''II'' stage).

* RegionalRiff: Even with the game’s modern hip hop soundscape, most of the stage soundtracks still feature instrumental nods to the nations depicted, which helps bring the varied locales to life. For example:

* RegionalSpeciality: In World Tour mode, each nation has a travelling merchant hanging about amongst the other visitors, who not only sells clothing and equipment, but also a selection of recognisable national dishes which provide different regenerative properties and status buffs, including tempura soba in Japan, fish & chips in England, hamburger in the US, jerk chicken in Jamaica, and duck confit in France.

* TheThunderdome: Multiple purpose-built fighting stages with audiences who watch the fight are present:
** Barmaley Steelworks: This is a makeshift cage made up from chain-link fences that are topped with barbed wire. A bald one-eyed referee is calling the action from within the ring. This is placed in a steel mill. A standing crowd is watching the fight, although cutting the graphics settings will reduce the size of the audience.
** Coloseo: The Roman Colosseum itself. You fight in the arena this time unlike in the corresponding stage in VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha.
** The Macho Ring: This is a hexagonal MMA cage in an arena in Metro City. It has some spots for advertising that are currently advertising the real-life [[ProductPlacement Capcom Cup X Street Fighter 6 tournament]], but normally advertise [[TitleDrop the game itself]], {{Creator/Capcom}}, and BrandX.
** Suva'hal Arena: This is an ancient fighting arena in [[FictionalCountry Nayshall]] that Ken and JP restored as part of setting up the next [[TournamentArc World Fighting Championship tournament]] as a joint venture before JP betrayed Ken and stole the tournament from him in order to turn it into a [[WhiteCollarCrime money laundering]] [[NotJustATournament front]].
