UK based tournament organisation Neo Empire (www.NeoEmpire.com) are running what promises to be one of the biggest and best tournaments ever seen in Europe. They have teamed up with Capcom Europe and EVO to put on a tournament which will see the best players in Europe duke it out to find the best 4 players to send to Las Vegas, who will then represent Europe at Evolution World in August. On top of this, they are also offering two incredibly cool opportunities at the event. The completed Arcade version of Street Fighter IV will be showcased at the event, running on back-to-back Vewlix cabinets. And if that wasn’t enough, the event will also showcase the latest build of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo: HD Remix running on Xbox 360 consoles provided by Microsoft. Both SF IV and HD Remix will be on freeplay over the entire the event, surely making this an event that no European player can afford to miss out on!

They are also promising players at the event a chance to take on a mysterious “new challenger” as advertised on the Battle of Destiny site. They haven’t revealed who it is just yet, but judging by the silhouetted figure, it looks like European players will be getting the opportunity to challenge one of the living legends of the Fighting Games World!
