Last year we began the Rivals Championship Series (RCS) and brought a developer supported circuit to our dedicated community. As the series grew, we needed a special finals event to cap it off, so we ended the first season at Genesis 4.
We were thrilled with the reception and Rivals players were too. People came from all over the world for the competition and camaraderie. With a 120 person bracket and a prize pool of over $11,000, players took away some amazing stories and friendships from the event.
Now the second RCS season is underway and already blowing last year’s numbers out of the water. We’re excited to announce that the finals will once again take place at Genesis – this time at Genesis 5 in Oakland, CA! Rivals registration was just announced yesterday with the main lineup of games and is now available here: https://smash.gg/G5
We’ll have players from all over the world attending our season 2 finals, including our newest RCS region in Australia. Make sure you sign up to be a part of this amazing event celebrating our community. The first 500 people to register for Genesis 5 also get $10 off and a free shirt so make sure you get in early.
