I didn’t hear no bell…
Japan’s fighting game heavyweights will be climbing back into the ring this weekend, as an array of developers and publishers gather for yet another Japan Fighting Game Publishers Roundtable presentation — the third iteration of the live stream event is scheduled for Sunday, March 21.
The stream will see representatives of studios such asGuilty Gear‘sArc System Works,Fighting EX Layer‘sArika,TekkenandDragon Ball FighterZ‘sBandai Namco,Street Fighter‘sCapcom,Virtua Fighter‘sSega, andThe King of Fighters‘SNKall in attendance, so it will be an all-star roster for this particular rumble.
The live-streamed event will see the publishers discuss the current state of the fighting game scene, detail future plans for competitive events, and, hopefully, show off a surprise or two for their respective releases. In addition, each studio will be spotlighting its own collection of fighting franchise memorabilia as part of a fun “Treasure Appraisal Project.”
While previous Japan Fighting Game Publisher Roundtable events have not exactly been known for hostingany major reveals, we often receive tidbits regarding patch dates,online connectivity plans, and occasionally the odd character trailer. So while viewers would do well to keep their expectations in check, you can rest easy that we’ll be reporting any pertinent news right here on Destructoid.
