Tekken World Tour Masters events kick off with this weekend's EVO Japan

Bandai Namco has been really, really pushing Tekken as of late. Not only has the games company shared a boatload of trailers for Tekken 8 over the last few weeks, but it has shared a ton of details about the Tekken World Tour for 2023, which is being played on Tekken 7.

While we still don't actually know when Tekken 8 will arrive, we do at least know what the schedule looks like for the Master events this season, and it all kicks off at EVO Japan this weekend. Here is the schedule.
