Evo Singapore has been moved to 15 to 17 January 2027 at Marina Bay Sands. It is South-east Asia’s first Evolution Championship Series event.

The tournament has a US$125,000 prize pool across five games. It will also host the Tekken World Tour 2026 Global Finals, with a separate US$300,000 purse.

Evo said Singapore is a smaller, focused event built around the five titles and Tekken finals. The Singapore Tourism Board said e-sports can help grow the city’s role as a regional hub.

SINGAPORE – The region’s first-ever Evolution Championship Series (Evo) tournament has been moved to Jan 15 to 17, 2027, setting the stage for a weekend of competitive fighting games at Marina Bay Sands Expo & Convention Centre .

Originally slated for 2026 , Evo Singapore’s new dates were chosen with the global fighting games calendar in mind, its organiser confirmed on Oct 29, in response to media queries .

The three-day showdown, which will be held at Halls E and F of the convention centre, carries a total prize pool of US$125,000 (S$159,600) across five fighting game titles: Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising, Guilty Gear (Strive), and Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls.

In fighting games, two players go head-to-head in one-on-one virtual combats, winning by knockout or by holding the health advantage when the timer runs out.

The tournaments adopt a double-elimination format, where players are knocked out of contention for the finals after losing two rounds.

In a first, the event will also double as the battleground for the Tekken World Tour (TWT) 2026 Global Finals. Organised by Bandai Namco Entertainment, the season-ending finale carries its own US$300,000 purse, marking the first time competitive Tekken crowns its world champion at an official Evo event.

Partnering with Bandai Namco Entertainment to host the marquee finale was a “natural fit”, Evo said, pointing to the chance to “celebrate the pinnacle of Tekken alongside the passionate fighting game community in Singapore and South-east Asia”.

While Evo did not reveal expected turnout numbers, it said the global fighting games tournament in Singapore is “designed to be a smaller focused experience... built around five core titles and the TWT 2026 Global Finals”.

The tournament’s flagship Las Vegas event, which was held in June, had a total prize pool of US$500,000, with more than 5,700 registered competitors.

“Our flagship event in Las Vegas took decades of community growth to reach its current scale, and we see Singapore as the start of the same story in South-east Asia,” Evo said.

The Evo Singapore tournament marks another milestone in the Republic’s push to become the region’s premier e-sports destination.

Singapore Tourism Board ’s director of sports Lilian Chee said: “E-sports events are a growth area for Singapore. Hosting these events augments our ambition to be an e-sports hub in the region.

“We believe world-class esports events – alongside sports events – can enhance Singapore’s reputation as an international sporting hub.”

Standard event tickets to Evo Singapore can be purchased on Trip.com , with prices ranging from $30 to $65.

Evo Singapore joins a stacked 2027 calendar for the local gaming scene, with the Republic also gearing up to host the Pokemon World Championships and the Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship .

Evo Singapore 的标准活动门票可在 Trip.com 上购买，价格从 30 美元到 65 美元不等。

Evo新加坡站已改期至2027年1月15日至17日在滨海湾金沙酒店举行。这将是东南亚首场Evolution冠军系列赛赛事。

本次锦标赛包含五款游戏，总奖金池为12.5万美元。此外，它还将举办2026年铁拳世界巡回赛全球总决赛，该赛事另有30万美元的独立奖金。

Evo表示，新加坡站规模较小，赛事重点突出，围绕五项赛事和铁拳决赛展开。新加坡旅游局则表示，电子竞技有助于提升新加坡作为区域中心的地位。

新加坡——该地区首届 Evolution Championship Series (Evo) 锦标赛已改期至 2027 年 1 月 15 日至 17 日举行，届时滨海湾金沙会展中心将举办为期一个周末的格斗游戏竞技盛会。

Evo Singapore 原定于 2026 年举办，其组织者在 10 月 29 日回复媒体询问时确认，新的举办日期是考虑到全球格斗游戏日程而选择的。

这场为期三天的对决将在会展中心的 E 厅和 F 厅举行，奖金池总额为 125,000 美元（159,600 新元），比赛项目包括五款格斗游戏：街头霸王 6、铁拳 8、碧蓝幻想 Versus: Rising、罪恶装备 (Strive) 和漫威 Tokon: Fighting Souls。

在格斗游戏中，两名玩家进行一对一的虚拟战斗，通过击倒对手或在时间结束时保持生命值优势来赢得胜利。

比赛采用双败淘汰制，选手在输掉两轮比赛后将被淘汰出局，无缘决赛。

此次赛事将首次同时作为2026年铁拳世界巡回赛（TWT）全球总决赛的举办地。这场由万代南梦宫娱乐公司主办的赛季收官之战将设立30万美元的独立奖金，这也标志着铁拳竞技项目首次在Evo官方赛事中决出世界冠军。
