Which games are featured, and what are the prizes?
The five featured titles are Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, MARVEL Tōkon: Fighting Souls, Guilty Gear -Strive- and Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising. Together, their competitions carry a minimum guaranteed US$125,000 prize pool. The Tekken World Tour 2026 Global Finals have a separate US$300,000 prize pool—at least US$425,000 across the two sets of competitions, not a single prize fund that every entrant is competing for.

How does the Tekken World Tour fit into Evo Singapore?
The Tekken World Tour 2026 Global Finals run January 14–17, starting one day before Evo Singapore. Group stages are scheduled for January 14 and 15, the Last Chance Qualifier for January 16, and the final bracket for Sunday, January 17.

For Tekken 8 players, the distinction matters: the Last Chance Qualifier takes the place of a standard Evo Singapore open bracket for that game. Its winner advances directly to the World Tour finals’ last bracket. Entering the qualifier requires its own registration.

How do spectators buy passes and players register?
Ticket sales and player registration opened on September 16, 2026. Spectators can buy a venue pass through Evo Singapore’s ticketing page; event guidance says the pass also covers the Tekken World Tour finals experience. Players need a three-day venue pass and must separately sign up for their bracket through the event’s start.gg registration route—a tournament entry alone does not replace a venue pass.

Register before the relevant cutoff: Evo’s rules require online registration before it closes, and the Tekken World Tour site lists December 15, 2026, as the Last Chance Qualifier registration deadline. Check the applicable bracket details before making plans.

What else is planned, and can fans watch online?
Evo Singapore’s programme extends beyond its main brackets, with arcade attractions, exhibitions, cosplay and community activities. Evo traces its roots to a 1996 gathering of 40 players in San Diego; Singapore is its first Southeast Asian edition.

Singapore had previously been expected in a 2026 window before the event was scheduled for 2027. The available reporting does not establish why the timing changed. One report mentions approximately 12 hours of daily streaming, but the supplied official event details do not confirm a Singapore-specific broadcast timetable or viewing link. Fans planning to watch remotely should check the event site closer to January.
