New 2GG tournament SwitchFest to run events for ARMS, Pokkén Tournament DX, and more

A new event for Nintendo competitors is on the horizon.

2GG — a California-based company that organizes and broadcasts Super Smash Bros. events — announced a new tournament for April called SwitchFest in Long Beach, CA.

Competitors can register for the following:

  • ARMS – Free Entry with $500 Prize Pool
  • Splatoon 2 – Free Entry with $500 Prize Pool
  • Pokkén Tournament DX – Free Entry with $500 Prize Pool

Though Switch games are obviously the focus of SwitchFest, there will also be a Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U side event. Early bird registration is available until April 6th, when the registration fee will go up to $40.00.

There will be Ladder events for each game as well, but you need to have your own Nintendo Switch to participate. Visit the SwitchFest smash.gg page for details about the event and to sign up.

Whether you’re planning to travel for the event or just watch it, mark your calendars — SwitchFest takes place April 21-22, 2018.
