[Jan. 26th, 2016] Evo 2k16 Game Lineup & Hotel Information Announcment

[Tim Static]

Next Tuesday, @MrWizard will be announcing the 2016 Evolution Championship Series game line-up, as well as the hotel information for the event. The "Super Bowl" of fighting game tournaments, is taking place July 15-17th, in Las Vegas, Nevada. You can see the event's trailer by clicking HERE.

In a tweet made last week, Wiz said, "the fighting game community can look forward to the tournament lineup, hotel information, and various other plans". MrWizard also told SRK.com that "these details will be announced live from the Red Bull eSports studio in Santa Monica, California. Tune into Twitch at 7pm PST/10pm EST to catch it all." The Twitch link for the announcement is http://www.twitch.tv/redbullesports

So TYM, I think MKX is absolutely guaranteed a spot in Evo2k16. What do you think the game lineup will be?

MK X will for sure be in the lineup, I just hope it's a sunday game.

 

[Scott The Scot]

Sweet, I can spend my birthday watching the second day of Evo :3

 

[Tim Static]

MK X will for sure be in the lineup, I just hope it's a sunday game.

No doubt but the last 2 games on Sunday will be MvC3 (sighs) & SFV. Practically guaranteed.

 

[Derptile]

I think MK might have a chance of taking MVC3's spot on Sunday. We've been killing it with tourney hype

Excluding Tanya.

 

[Desperdicio]

It'd be nice if USFIV made it there another year. Something like SFV, USFIV, MKX, KI, and anything else they want to put there: that'd be great.

 

[AK XEN0M0RPH]

Dont forget both smash games are pretty much guaranteed too

 

[Onilordasmodeus]

I hope ki makes the cut. Mkx is a lock.

 

[Tim Static]

SFV, MKX, UMvC3, SF4, KI, Melee, Smash 4 & Tekken 7 are my guesses. Possibly 1-2 more like an Anime game or 2.

 

[GamerBlake90]

As long as MKXL (yes, I'm calling it XL now), KI Season 3, and Street Fighter 5 are locked, I'm good.

 

[Konqrr]

Depending on entrants, USFIV will most likely conclude on Saturday.

SFV, MKXL, Tekken 7, KI, UMvC3, GGXrd, USFIV, Melee, Smash 4

 

[NaCl man]

Tekken 7 and mkx hype

 

[honeybooboo]

Getting my ticket asap. I missed esl but i wont miss this

 

[Stevie Steelz]

Why wouldn't MKX get a Sunday spot? It's been doing really well in sales and tournament numbers, plus Kombat Pack 2 is coming... It's gonna have top attendance for sure!

 

[Compbros]

An announcement of an announcement...when will this stop being a thing?

 

[Alright RyRy]

@Tim Static make this front page.

 

[Tim Static]

@Tim Static make this front page.

It is, you just posted in it. Gonna have it rehit the FP a little later on once it gets around noon or later on the left coast. Thanks man.

 

[SoundsLikePAUSE]

I would love to see GGXRD-Revelator & Blazblue: Central Fiction part of the line up, but both games are taking their sweet time to be released on consoles. -_-

 

[Rice]

The unrealistic dream would be for me to cut off at least 1 smash game.

Its just a mutliple hour long piss break for me.
