FINALLY, Filipino Tekken fans have something to look forward to as Timezone has announced the Tekken 6 Competition, the country’s first nationwide tournament for the highly-successful Tekken fighting game series.
What is more interesting about this competition is that the national champion will compete in the first international Tekken 6 contest to be held in Singapore, to face other players from Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, and India.
In an interview, Timezone marketing officer Anna Cardenas said there had been much clamor from the local Tekken player community for a nationwide competition. It was when the Singapore tournament was announced that they had a reason to come up with a local counterpart.
“Our players are already very skilled. They’ve honed themselves for years,” Cardenas said.
The game is open to players ages 16 to 22, with a registration fee of P150. The company is limiting to 32 the number of players per store.
Sixteen Timezone branches in Metro Manila will serve as venues for the competition, which will start with a pre-finals registration on August 16 to 22. This will be followed up by the pre-finals game on August 23. The grand final will be held in Market! Market! in Taguig City on August 29.
The second runner-up will take home a trophy, an Apple iPod shuffle, P1,000 worth of Timezone gift checks, and other items. The first runner-up will get a trophy, a digital camera, P2,000 worth of
Timezone gift checks, and other Timezone items.
The champion will win P3,000 pesos of Timezone gift checks, items, a Tekken 6 T-shirt, and a seat to represent the Philippines in the Singapore Tekken 6 competition on September 13.
