Last Wednesday, February 3, CAPCOM Unity Brasil held a pre-launch tournament of Street Fighter V for the press.

It was the first time we had the chance to play as FANG, and to experiment the finished version of the game (although this did not have the day 1 patch yet).

Keoma Pacheco, one of the top players of Street Fighter in the world was at the event serving as an advisor for the players.

Here are some of the battles of the tournament captured on direct feed, 720p 60 FPS.

When you say "Brazilian press tournament", do you mean a tournament featuring only Brazilian game journalists as competitors? Because I'd actually watch that.

As a service for all my fellow GAFers who do not understand portugues, I would just like to inform that one of the finalists is known as PleasureDragon (DragaoDoPrazer)
