Update: This story is being updated with live results as they occur.
Today we’re going to be seeing the third Capcom Pro Tour World Warrior tournament for Japan.
Some of the notable names signed up include DFM|Go1, SBI|Hibiki, Reject|Daigo, CR|Dogura, IBSG|Yanai, RB|Gachikun, Reject|Tokido, RB|Bonchan, FAV|Moke, VARREL|Mago, CR|Tachikawa, CAG|Fenrich, Saishunkan|Nemo, DFM|Itabashi Zangief, NOJA|Kei.B, iXA|Acqua, FAV|Sako, FAV|Fujimura, VARREL|Mizuha, Saishunkan|Cosa, VR|Kichipa, G8S|Kawano, G8S|Pugera, Saishunkan|Kobayan, Saishunkan|Machabo, Zeta|Yamaguchi, Zeta|Hikaru, iXA|Inaba, Reject|Akira, Zeta|Higuchi, BCT|Otani, CR|Shuto and more.
While we don’t typically cover every World Warrior tournament besides the Regional Finals here on EventHubs, we’ve made an exception for Japan this year due to the sheer volume of entrants.
This third World Warrior is a slight step down from the previous one but still netted just short of 1,500 participants.
Since Japan is a Super Region, whoever reaches the top of the points leaderboard will receive a direct qualification to Capcom Cup 12, while the 2nd to 9th points getters will battle it out in the Regional Finals later.
Streaming is being done at Capcom Fighters JP.
