Does Street Fighter 6 have microtransactions? Drive Tickets explained

It does appear that Street Fighter 6 will indeed incorporate microtransactions into the game in the form of a Drive Tickets currency.

Street Fighter 5’s Fight Money currency proved to be very controversial with the community. But in the Street Fighter 6 beta, we saw the debut of the new Drive Tickets. They allowed you to acquire new clothes and cosmetics for your characters.
