For fans of the Street Fighters, Tekkens and Dragon Ball FighterZs of this world, The Evo Championship Series is the most magical time of the year. Held at the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas, thousands trade blows across eight major games (plus a fair few minor ones) in search of fame, glory, and big cash prizes. Evo’s doors are open, and the first matches are streaming live on Twitch right now.
For those who’d rather just fight for themselves, Steam is running a big promo weekend, with discounts many of the games being played and free weekends for Street Fighter 5, Tekken 7 and new 2D crossover fighter BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle. How else are you going to get warmed up for Evo 2019?
