Crossover Arc 2023
Crossover Arc 2023 is going to be taking place in New York at the Bowry, over March 24-26 for three full days of fighting games. Over these days, we’re going to see some of the best fighting games but also some more niche inclusions. These are the events that will be at the tournament.
Guilty Gear Strive
Guilty Gear Strive is one of the biggest events you’ll find at Crossover Arc. There’s a prize pool of $1,002 at stake here. It’s being played in a double-elimination bracket.
There are 35 players in the event, including bigger names like Nitro, Shine, Crocs N’ Socks and Buscar Luz. This event is mainly for the East Coast, but there’s another event running in March for other regions’ Guilty Gear players, Slashback.
Melty Blood: Type Lumina
As another of the top fighting games, Melty Blood is going to have a decent-sized event at Crossover Arc 2023. There’s a prize of $1,003 here for the 54 attending fighters to compete for. There are more recognisable players showing up for Crossover 2023, like Foxof42, Hyde, Safe, and OmniSScythe.
Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r]

Granblue Fantasy: Versus
GranBlue is going to be at the event. It’s a smaller tournament than some of the others with only 26 players attending so far. It’s still going to be worth checking out if you follow the game though.
King of Fighters XV
The last of the major tournaments at Crossover Arc 2023 is going to be King of Fighters. It’s got the smallest roster of players at 19, but some bigger names like Rikir and Aroo are attending There will be another prize pool of just over $1,000 here.
Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code
This is a more niche inclusion, a second game in Melty Blood at Crossover Arc 2023! It’s going to be played as a full tournament though, not a side event! There’s a full prize pool of $1,002 for the event and 36 players are coming up for the bracket.
Alongside all of these tournaments, there will also be a side event for yet another Guilty Gear game! This will be for Guilty Gear Xrd REV 2. It won’t be quite on the same level as Strive’s tournaments, but it’ll be a fun side inclusion.
How to Watch The Events
Crossover 2023 is going to be running all of these events across March. If you want to follow along with any of the games, there’s going to be a stream of the event. There are separate streams of each of the games playing on Twitch over the weekend. You can catch the final bracket of each of these tournaments.
