First Ever E3 Arena at E3 2017
Saturday 10th June 2017, 10:06 | written by: Gabriel SciberrasWithout anybody really noticing, Electronic Entertainment Expo has been shortened to Esports Entertainment. This change was probably induced by the agreement between T-Mobile and Twitch. Celebrating this collaboration, the pair will host a first E3 Arena at E3 in which gamers will smack their way through Injustice 2, Street Fighter V and Tekken 7. According to the schedule, the beginning day will host Street Fighter, the following with Tekken and the final day to finish off with Injustice 2.
Not any stars have been said to appear officially, probably implying that the public will have a chance to show off their fighting game fury. Such an event will definitely help boost the impressive performance of Tekken and Injustice 2, while perhaps catalysing more sales for the struggling Street Fighter V. With three huge fighter games released in close vicinity, one of them is expected to struggle.
Twitch has obviously been focusing on fighting games for the past few months, formulated partnerships with Netherrealm, Bandai Namco and now, T-Mobile. All of this benefits us viewers, as streaming has never been easier.
