C'est officiel, Nintendo a retiré Super Smash Bros. Nintendo a retiré Super Smash Bros 2022

Comme vous vous en souvenez peut-être, last March – Sony Interactive Entertainment and esports business RTS jointly acquired the fighting game tournament Evo. Nintendo at the time said it would continue to “assess” Evo, as it planned for future Super Smash Bros. tournament activity.

It seems now a decision has been made. According to an announcement from the team at Evo, Nintendo has decided to withdraw Super Smash Bros. from the event. It’s admittedly a massive blow, as the series has been featured at the fighting game tournamnet since 2007.

Here’s the full statement from Evo:

“Since 2007, we’ve seen historic Super Smash Bros. moments created at Evo’s events. We are saddened that Nintendo has chosen not to continue that legacy with us this year. Dans l'avenir, we hope to once again celebrate the Super Smash Bros. community alongside them.”

As noted above, the Evo 2022 announcement show will take place on March 8.

Nintendo previously mentioned how it “enjoyed engaging with fans at past Evo tournaments” and wished the show organisers all the best in their new venture. Plus récemment, Nintendo has been hosting its own tournament events in partnership with Panda Global.
