Hyundai will sponsor the final event of the Red Bull Conquest tournament circuit.

The 2019 Hyundai Veloster N will be on site at the venue throughout the weekend.

Red Bull Conquest is a multi-title fighting game circuit featuring Street Fighter, TEKKEN, and Guilty Gear.

Energy drink brand Red Bull has added Hyundai as a sponsor for the finals of its fighting game tournament circuit, Red Bull Conquest. The 2019 Hyundai Veloster N will be on display outside the Entertainment and Sports Arena in Washington, D.C. throughout the event, and the automotive brand will also host a photo booth inside the venue.

Red Bull held regional qualifiers throughout the U.S. for Street Fighter V , TEKKEN 7, and Guilty Gear Xrd REV2 as part of the Conquest circuit. The winner of each game will represent their region as a three-man team this weekend in the finals event. Rather than awarding a large cash prize like most major esports competitions, the official Red Bull Conquest rules outline a unique set of prizes for the winning team:

A $4,500 monetary prize (split three ways among the winning team) Round-trip economy cabin air transportation tickets from each team member’s nearest major airport to Evolution Championship Series: Japan 2019. Entry into Evolution Championship Series: Japan 2019. Lodging for four (4) night(s) in a hotel room (single room, double occupancy) in or near the location of Evolution Championship Series: Japan 2019.

The Evolution Championship Series (Evo) is the largest and most prestigious fighting game tournament of the year, taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada during the Summer. Beginning in 2018, Evo expanded by adding a second annual event in Japan. Due to the persistent popularity of arcades, and the fact that most major fighting games are developed by Japanese companies, the majority of past Evo champions are from Japan, making it a natural fit for the tournament’s first expansion event.

Because many top players in less high profile games like Guilty Gear are not signed to an esports organization, these prizes will allow those players to compete at a major international event that they otherwise may not have been able to attend.

Red Bull Conquest’s list of partners includes Events DC, PlayStation 4, ZOWIE , SteelSeries , Hori, 7 Eleven, and Artechouse.
