EVO Japan 2026 is happening in May. The game lineup is listed right above the dates.
No. 1 is Street Fighter 6 with 2,450 entrants. It's basically Japan's 'national game' alongside Valorant right now.
No. 2 is Guilty Gear Strive with 185... Wait, the gap between 1st and 2nd is actually insane lol.
Tekken, which usually makes the 'Big 3' modern fighting games (SF/Tekken/GG), is at No. 4 with 121 entrants... LMAO. So what the hell is No. 3?
No. 3 is Vampire Savior with 128 entrants LOL. Look at the state of Tekken 8 getting bodied by a game from the 90s LMAOOO. The rest: GBVSR 113, 2XKO (LoL Tekken) 101, Fatal Fury: CotW 101, Fist of the North Star 52, Melty Blood TL 48, KOF 15 47, VF5 33, UNI2 28.
Brand new titles getting absolutely shafted by dead series from the 90s.
"The community is absolutely roasting Tekken 8 for being 'dead on arrival' in terms of tournament hype, with users blaming the game director Murray and mocking the long combo times and boring gameplay."
