Capcom Pro Tour 2023 has been announced: Street Fighter 6. The prize pool is $2 million. First prize is a 1 million USD.
The next Pro Tour, which will consist of numerous qualification events around the world, will culminate in Capcom Cup X, with its large prize, according to a tweet posted on the official Street Fighter Twitter account.
"The winner of Capcom Cup X will receive a whopping $1,000,000," the tweet reads, adding, "Who wants to be a millionaire?"
The prize money was announced over the weekend at Capcom Cup IX, where it was also revealed that the total prize fund will be more than $2 million.
The next Capcom Pro Tour and Capcom Cup X will highlight Street Fighter 6 as the major game for the first time.
Street Fighter 6 will be available on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and Steam on June 2.
One of the game's more remarkable new features is the World Tour mode, which allows players to create their own character, explore a number of open-world locales, and pick up moves from existing Street Fighter characters.
