DreamHack has returned for its’ 2023 round. Happening in Atlanta, Georgia, on December 15-17th, the fighting game portion of this legendary event is about to come at fans really fast. The event itself is a festival built for gamers of all walks or runs. The coverages will be monumental from the sounds of it.
The lineup for the official tournaments is quite the rager:
- Street Fighter 6 (PS5) – $5,000 prize pool
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – $4,000 prize pool
- Mortal Kombat 1 (PS5) – $3,000 prize pool
- Super Smash Bros. Melee – $2,000 prize pool
- Tekken 7 (PS4 Pro) – $2,000 prize pool
- Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising (PS5) – $1,500 prize pool
- Guilty Gear Strive (PS4 Pro) – $1,500 prize pool
- Super Smash Bros. Melee & Ultimate Doubles Tournaments – $500 prize pool each
After the issues with Smash and Nintendo’s support for Esports, it’s interesting to see them back in any tournament. A Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising will be available that weekend. Considering it’s more of an updated sequel version of the original, the experience will already be there from its’ original release date.
