The 5th Topanga Championship is about to take place in Japan, and it’ll be the first one for Street Fighter 6 so the hype is big.

The format is the traditional Round Robin style that Topanga is known for, and with so many players they have been divided up into 3 groups of 9 players each where they will fight it out in first-to-3 sets amongst themselves in an online setting.
Out of these 3 leagues, a total of 7 players will advance into the finals which are then played in-person offline over a weekend in a first-to-7 format to truly prove who is the best of the best.
The total prize pool for the event is a whopping 4 million yen ($25,366) so you know all of Japan’s finest are going to be bringing their absolute A game in order to claim the biggest chunk of that money.
