Earlier this year, we saw the biggest open bracket video game tournament conclude – Evo 2024. With over 16,000 tournament entrants and many spectators alongside them, Evo made clear to the Las Vegas crowd that it’s not going away any time soon. Or, well, you could argue it said the opposite! Not in terms of a permanent goodbye, but more of a holiday abroad, as Evo international events in France and Signapore were announced live during the Sunday finals.
I wanted to learn more about this planned escapade beyond the shores of the USA and Japan, about how the countries were picked and how this’ll change the event for better or worse. To do so, I sat down with Rick “The Hadou” Thiher to chat about the announcement, and what this means for the Evo brand.
