We’re coming up on possibly the biggest in competitive fighting game events this year, EVO 2024. The event will see the largest western tournaments for all the major titles, but EVO 2024 will also show off some smaller games with a devoted following. The tournament is held this summer, and registration has been interesting so far. It’s even gotten so high that it’s broken a record.
Looking at early registration numbers is a great sign of how each game is doing lately. Street Fighter 6 has pretty much dominated sign-ups since the game came out. Lately, Tekken has been attracting a lot of attention too though. The allure of the Tekken World Tour this year has meant even more players are joining up. Not mention a second round of the Capcom Cup for SF 6.
The early registration numbers for EVO 2024 have been a particularly interesting batch. In total, it seems the total numbers of attendees have already passed what we saw the year before.

What’s the Most Popular Game at EVO 2024?
The EVO 2024 Registration numbers have just been released! We’ve known for a while that this is going to be a record-breaking event, with it having the most competitors of any esports tournament. What’s interesting is how it weighs out between the different games though. Which titles are leading the pack?
No surprise in the leader here, it’s Street Fighter 6. Lots of players want to take part in this year’s Capcom Cup. Next up we have Tekken 8. Another title that’s recently released and seeing tons of attention from players. Third is a little more surprising, Guilty Gear Strive. This title just doesn’t see to go away, it’ll be topping EVO registrations for years to come.

After that, we have a few more surprises. One that’s particularly shocking is Mortal Kombat 1. It’s a new release in the big three fighters, but it’s sat at just over 600. Under Night IN-Birth II has had a decent showing too. SF 3 is another major surprise, getting more than 1 ,000 sign ups this far from its release!
Clearly a few titles are leading EVO 2024. It’s interesting to see that most games across the board have increased numbers this year though.
EVO 2024 Breaks Record
EVO 2024 has just broken a new record, it’s officially the largest esports event in terms of participation. We’ve already seen EVO 2024 registration numbers get particularly high. However, it’s now clear participation is going much further than we thought. The tournament will officially have the largest participation out of all esports events we’ve seen in the past.
How has EVO managed to hit this new record? A big part of it is down to the nature of EVO. As the mecca of fighting games, it offers tons of different titles. With new fighting game releases bringing attention to so many different games, each is getting tons of registrations for 2024.
EVO 2024 Registrations
EVO 2024 registrations have been open for a while and there are only days left to get your names in and take part. Organizers have begun releasing snipes of information about how the registration weighs out too. For a start, this event has already gone past EVO 2023’s sign-ups!
EVO has grown year on year, and 2024 is going to be bigger than 2023. That year was already over the line in setting registration records, which has been broke again.

We’re not sure just yet what titles have the most sign ups though. This time that is in being held back until closer to the time. In terms being out ahead, Street Fighter 6 feels like the safest bet right now. Although, Tekken 8 will probably be pretty far ahead too. Out of those, anime fighting games like GGS tend to do well, and Mortal Kombat 1 will still be pretty new when the event takes place.
