About the Event
Red Bull has been organising fighting game tournaments for several years, such as Red Bull Kumite in SFV, and several SAGA tournaments on the Dragon Ball World Tour.
Now they have created a series of events for players living in Europe during September — the Double KO series.
Each week, a different game will be in the spotlight, in order of appearance:
- Granblue Fantasy Versus — September 5, won by LordVenom
- Dragon Ball FighterZ — September 12-13, won by Kayne
- Street Fighter V — September 19-20 won by Lord Problem X
- Tekken 7 — September 26-27
The top 7 players with the most Circuit Points from previous Red Bull events qualify for the Main Event, and a Last Chance Qualifier open to all will offer the final place in the Top 8.
How to register:
Be over 18, then register for the event on Smash.GG, and join the Red Bull Discord. Registrations will close on Saturday 19 September at 2PM (BST). If you do not join the Discord, the registration will not be validated.
