There will be two tiers of Premier Tournament for Arc World Tour 2020: Platinum and Gold. Each type of Premier Tournament will have different amounts of Arc World Tour Points (AWTP) available. Details of the AWTP awarded are shown in the table below.





Daredevil Events

Daredevil Events are community-organized tournaments that are eligible to award AWTP. Events that have registered to be a part of the Arc World Tour 2020 through Smash.gg will be able to give out AWTP based on the number of entrants for each game at their event.

The DAREDEVIL tournament is scheduled from April to October 2020.



Please see here for the Daredevil Events Application Process.



For an event to qualify as a Daredevil Event, it will need to meet the criteria listed below.

Any tournament wanting to be a part of the Arc World Tour 2020 will need to do the following on Smash.gg:

1) Post tournament information, and adhere to Arc World Tour Tournament Regulations

2) Open sign ups/tournament registration

For approved Daredevil Events, the number of AWTP that will be allotted will be based on the size of the brackets reported on Smash.gg.

Arc System Works (ASW) is not involved in and assumes no responsibility for Daredevil Event and the organizers for said events will be wholly responsible for all decisions connected to the administering and running for their respective event.

Players entering Daredevil Events acknowledge that ASW does not sponsor, endorse, or are involved in the administration of said events and that by entering a Daredevil Event, players release ASW of any liability arising from the player’s participation in the applicable Daredevil Event. Any complaints, comments, or concerns regarding a Daredevil Event should be directed to the organizer of the event and not to ASW. ASW reserves the right to disqualify ranking points earned by players at a Daredevil Event if it is suspected that the event organizer has incorrectly calculated the AWTP, engaged in match fixing or manipulated the final outcome, misrepresented entry numbers, or other circumstances that cause ASW to question the integrity of a tournament’s results.

Online Tournaments

The PlayStation®4 version of BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle will be updated to include Sony’s new online tournament feature, allowing players to enter events directly from the game’s main menu. Sign up for tournaments and get notifications for upcoming matches all from within the game.

For Online Tournaments, players are restricted to entering the online season dedicated to their region.

Entering online seasons that do not correspond with their region may result in the disqualification of points earned at the sole discretion of ASW.
