Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls and Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game both hit the big stage recently, and they have more plans to support their pro scenes moving forward too.
Arc System Works revealed today Marvel Tokon’s details for joining the Arc World Tour 2026-2027 while Avatar is getting its own circuit.
While Marvel will be joining Guilty Gear Strive at the Arc World Tour Finals next year, they’ll be handling things much differently for the new title.
Instead of a leaderboard and points structure, Marvel Tokon is going to be limited to eight finalists determined over the coming months.
Seven of those spots are going to qualifier events where Evo France 2026 moves two players forward as well as Evo Singapore, Frosty Faustings and then Battle Coliseum receives one while the final slot is determined by a last chance qualifier.

No prizing has been confirmed yet, and though SonicFox just won Marvel Tokon’s first major at CEO 2026, they won’t qualify for the finals without topping another event again.
Avatar is going to be holding their own Pro-Bending Circuit with supported tournaments all over the world though we don’t know which events will count yet there either.
They are offering over $100,000 in prizes for the circuit with a world finals taking place sometime in 2027 though we’ll have to wait for more details on that.
Can you master all four elements and become the world’s true Avatar?

The Arc World Tour Finals with just Guilty Gear and Marvel Tokon is set to take place March 5–7, 2027 in Manhattan, New York since Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising and Under Night In-Birth 2 won’t be included this time.
More information for both circuits are coming at a later date.
