From the grassroots arcade communities that helped build Brazil’s fighting-game culture to the Versus: Evo South America tournaments that the community held in 2008 and 2009, this city has long been part of the FGC’s story. Bringing Evo to São Paulo will be an opportunity to honor that legacy, showcase the incredible passion of Brazil’s players and fans, and invite the global fighting-game community to the next chapter in Evo’s history. We’re excited to bring the world together in a city that understands what makes fighting games so extraordinary.”
