Last year was a huge succes for the Danish fighting game scene with around 60 Scandinavian fighters battling it out for pride and glory.
In the battle of the vikings last year, the Norwegians came out strong in both Super Street Fighter IV and Marvel vs Capcom 3 and the Swedes showed their dominance in Tekken, Third Strike and Super Street Fighter II Turbo. This year we all get a chance to prove who are the real kings of the Nordic!
Therefore we proudly announce a new Headstomper Tournament and once again we ask you to join us. This year we have a new game in the mix and there are more memorable prizes at stake, than just money.
