Evo 2020 is going online-onlyThe fighting will continue
The fighting will continue

Like everything else, Evo is not going ahead as usual this year. The fighting game championships will not invade a Las Vegas resort for a weekend at the end of July, with that event now cancelled and tickets getting refunded. But Evo 2020 is evolving, and will go online this summer. It surely won’t be the same but, even as a casual spectator, I’m still well up for it.
“Due to Covid-19, we are sadly cancelling Evo 2020 at Mandalay Bay and refunding all purchased tickets,” the organisers said inFriday’s announcement. “But to keep the Evo spirit alive, we’re bringing the event online this summer. More information coming soon!”
Evo 2020 was due to run July 31st to August 2nd.
Evo online won’t be the same, what with both lag and the lack of a crowd, but hell what’s the same any more.
“The health and well-being of our community is our highest priority,” the Evo team added. “We hope everyone stays safe during this time.”
