The Capcom Pro Tour will see players from across the world fight it out to become the Street Fighter V world champion. This year will see the tournament expand worldwide, visiting the most amount of countries ever seen in a Capcom tournament.

The Pro Tour will span 19 territories and 32 separate events. It invites potential competitors to register on the Capcom website if they feel they have what it takes to compete globally.

There’s a $5,000 prize pool up for grabs in each individual tournament. That’s not a huge reward in esports, but it’s also not exactly what players are competing for. The real reward is a chance to qualify for Capcom’s even bigger tournament.
