Besides that, it is also a Gold event on the Arc World Tour for both Guilty Gear Strive and Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising as well as a Virtua Fighter Open Championship qualifier for Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage.
More than 200 hopefuls showed up for Tekken 8 followed by Street Fighter 6 with more than 110 entrants. Next in line is Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage sitting at over 85 participants and after that is 2XKO which exceeded 75 registrants, while Guilty Gear Strive landed at over 50 signups and Granblue Fantasy Versus Rising hit more than 45 players.
There will also be tournament action for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves, King of Fighters 15, Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Hunter x Hunter: Nen Impact. There’s also a Mystery Tournament bracket being held.
