The community is speculating that the next season of Street Fighter 6 will eventually feature Menat.

Despite all this, the developers have not yet confirmed or clarified whether Menat will be part of the upcoming season.

Season 1 went live with the release of Street Fighter 6 in June 2023 and lasted almost a year. Following this, the Year 2 pass was released in June 2024. Given this pattern and considering that scheduled character releases extend until Spring 2025, we can speculate that Season 3 will go live in June 2025.
