EVO Japan 2023, a fighting game festival held from March 31 (Friday) to April 2 (Sunday), 2023, has come to a successful conclusion! As this was the first time the event was held in three years, Saiga NAK was eager to cover the event for three days in a row. We were pumped with adrenaline during the event, but now we're exhausted.... The post-event report of EVO Japan 2023 is now available, and it announced that the total number of visitors during the three days reached 35,000, and the number of simultaneous connections to the Japanese-language streaming service reached about 100, 000!
EVO Japan 2023 comes to a close with a bang!

EVO Japan had to be canceled due to restrictions caused by the new coronavirus since it was first held in 2020. EVO Japan 2023, which was held for the first time in three years, attracted fighting gamers from all over Japan and the world.

I came to Japan at the time of the TOUGEKI '07 and won the championship at KOF98, but I was told by many people that I could only win with old games. I was told by many people.
