With the release of Street Fighter IV, King of Fighters XII, BlazBlue, and the upcoming release of Tekken 6, the fighting game scene worldwide has been rapidly expanding, resulting in more interest in tournaments and casual sessions. As such, the folks over at Neo Empire have decided to make Super VS Battle 2009 an international event, in search of the world's best fighting game players.The 3-day long tournament will contain a main roster of 10 games, along with even more side-tournaments to compete in, and casual play for those hoping to level their game up. The 10 main games at Super VS Battle 2009 are:
• Street Fighter IV
• Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
• Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike
• Street Fighter Alpha 3
• Capcom vs. SNK 2
• Guilty Gear XX Accent Core
• BlazBlue
• King of Fighters XII
• Soul Calibur IV
• Tekken 6
Not only will Tekken 6 be free to play for anyone who has paid venue entry, but it will be the PS3 version - which isn't released until October! Free Tekken 6 posters will be distributed to those playing the game.
Also at the event will be the director of Arc System Works; the development team behind Guilty Gear and BlazBlue, among other titles, for a possible Q&A session on the Saturday. Merchandise will also be available for those partaking in the event!
Super VS Battle 2009 will be taking place from the 11th-13th September, 2009. Make sure you don't miss this opportunity to become recognised in the scene, and make new friends/rivals. As anyone who's been to a tournament of the sort will know, there's sure to be a lot of hype, drama, and intense matches!
