|
|
|
|
 Mark
"Markman" Julio recently posted the final player registration
numbers for EVO Japan 2023. Street Fighter V: Champion Edition
locked in the most participants this year (1,797 players), with TEKKEN 7
and Guilty
Gear -STRIVE-
taking second and third, bringing in 1,400 and 1,385
registered players, respectively. Also worth mentioning is The
King of Fighters XV
and Virtua
Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown,
practically tied with around 800 participants. Take a look at
Markman's tweet below for the final EVO Japan 2023 numbers:
|
EVO Japan will return as a live event, taking
place March 31st through April 2nd, 2023. Below is
the official trailer for the tournament.
|
|
The
first ever inaugural EVO Japan event took place back in January 2018. EVO Japan
is the first and only Evolution Championship Series event taking place
outside of the USA. Like EVO 2022 in Las Vegas,
Nevada, EVO
Japan 2023 will be the tournament's first live event since the 2020 global
pandemic. EVO Japan 2020 was one of the final major fighting game tournaments
before the COVID-19 pandemic put live events on a hiatus.
|
|
EVO Japan takes
place March 31st through April 2nd, 2023 at the Tokyo
Big Sight (Tokyo International Exhibition Center) in Tokyo. More
information and details are available on the EVO Japan official
site.
In
related news, the official games lineup for EVO 2023 in Las Vegas was announced back in
February. As always, please stay tuned on
The Fighters
Generation for continued coverage and upcoming announcements.
