What is it?
The NEO GEO World Tour is a global tournament where the winners of each region will win a flight to Hong Kong for a final tournament! There are in fact TWO seasons (at least), which means two chances to win a flight to Hong Kong; the first stop of season 2 is already confirmed for Gamescom Germany! There is also prize money to win!
Which games are in the tour?
- KOF 98
- KOF XIV
- Metal Slug score attack
- Other games too, depending on demand!
Note: only KOF 98 and KOFXIV are qualifiers for the finals in Hong Kong. For the other games, there are prizes to be won! The highest scorer overall for Metal Slug might get another prize (TBC)!
