How to watch EVO 2022: Start date, stream & games lineup
Sony recently shared Evo 2022’s full schedule and lineup, meaning a breakdown of what to watch and how is in order.
To the surprise of many,Sony purchased Evolution ChampionshipSeries (Evo) last year, making it the proud owner of the world’s most prestigious fighting game championship.
While Evo Online 2021 hit the web in August, the planned in-person tournament never saw the light of day.
The esports event returns to its in-person roots this year, though, complete with a live tournament, developer interviews, and a PlayStation-hosted live show.
Here’s the rundown on everything the FGC needs to know in the lead-up to this week’s festivities.
When is Evo 2022 taking place?
Evo will celebrate its 20th anniversary at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada from Friday, August 5 through Sunday, August 7.
Notably, this marks the fighting game tournament’s first on-site gathering since Evo 2019.
