This Saturday and Sunday in Japan is the second annual Toushinsai, hosted by Taito. A spiritual successor of sorts to Tougeki, Toushinsai is a large-scale arcade tournament featuring six of the most popular fighting games, as well as a number of side events. This year, Arc System Work’s yearly event ARC REVOLUTION CUP will be hosted as part of Toushinsai, including its four major fighting game titles. As an arcade-only event, this means that unfortunately Street Fighter V and The King of Fighters XIV will not be present; their respective predecessors however are included as part of the event.

As you would expect from a tournament of this size, some of the best in the world will be competing, including MarlinPie and Mynus, who will be representing the US in the Guilty Gear Xrd event. If you want to see players like Ogawa, FAB, Summit, Omito, Zadi, Nage, Koike, N-O, Yoshiki, Tsujikawa, Tetsuwo, Konan, Dora, Ao, Nobi, Yuu, Take, OZ and many more battle it out their respective games, you definitely want to catch this.

Day 1 events include DFCI, UNI[st], P4U2, GGXrdR and BBCF. Day 2 events included CC, KOF XIII, DOA5, NPBZ, Tekken 7 and USFIV, with the finals for each title taking place in the listed order.
