Samurai Shodown will launch by August and will be one of the main games at EVO 2019

Today came the announcement of the list of games that will be part of the main tournaments of EVO 2019, the world’s biggest fighting game championship.

And as a surprise, SNK dropped a new trailer for its upcoming release, Samurai Shodown:

Besides the new trailer shown, it was confirmed that the game will launch worldwide in the American summer and that it will be one of the main games at EVO 2019.

And since EVO 2019 will be held on August 2, 3 and 4, SNK “kind of accidentally” confirmed that the game will launch before that date.

At the end of the trailer, we also have confirmation that Samurai Shodown is playable at the PAX East 2019 event, to be held on March 28 to 31.

Samurai Shodown is being developed in Unreal Engine 4 and for now has a confirmed release for the PS4, but it is quite likely to be released for other platforms.
