Saturday will see the UNIST, Dragon Ball FighterZ, Samurai Showdown, and Mortal Kombat 11 finals take place before Sunday kicks off with BlazBlue, Street Fighter V, Tekken 7, and Smash Ultimate.

Pool play for all games will take place on Friday, Aug. 2, with some matches being played throughout the weekend leading up to the finals. There will also be smaller, non-official tournaments and events throughout the weekend for those who aren’t signed up to compete.

Fans should expect some big FGC news when the top eight kicks off, including potential future DLC and game announcements.
