EVO is the biggest fighting tournament in the world, and as expected, Street Fighter V is going to be a part of it. Today, they announced on Twitter that Capcom’s newest fighting game has broken the record for most entrants at EVO in a single game over the past four days.

If you need an idea of how big that is, eSports photographer Robert Paul breaks down how many entrants that could be. And the number is pretty dang big.
Good lord. For reference, that's at least 2227 entrants. https://t.co/ltqZKTqMoJ
