The Evo 2023 Friday Showcase appears to be shaping up to be quite the spectacle. In a post on the Evo website (https://www.evo.gg/news/evo-2023-schedule-friday-showcase), the full schedule for day one of Evo 2023 has been revealed.
The fun starts at 10:00 a.m. with what Evo calls a surprise-filled panel featuring Arc System Works. The developers are absolute monsters?in a good way?when it comes to fighting games, responsible for the Guilty Gear franchise and the popular 2022 release DNF Duel.
At 12:30 p.m., a surprise developer will go on-stage for an "exciting announcement." No details yet, but the blog say it's a first look at a special reveal. Evo co-founder Seth Killian will host an interview with Street Fighter pro MenaRD, discussing their history with the Street Fighter franchise.
Hidden Variable Studios will then show off what's next for Skullgirls at 1:10 p.m. At 1:45 p.m. we'll get a look at the upcoming Rivals of Aether 2 followed by a rapid-fire reel of indie fighting game trailers at 2:00 p.m.
Rounding out the first part of the showcase is a look at Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3's history at Evo. This looks like it's going to be a blast, especially with the host, UMVC3 Evo champion Justin Wong.

Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, Killer Instinct, and Mortal Kombat 11At 3;00 p.m. Capcom will take the stage with a Street Fighter 6 developer panel. I'm sure there will be a focus on the recently released Rashid (https://www.destructoid.com/rashid-makes-his-street-fighter-6-debut-on-july-24/) as well as what we can look forward to in the future for SF6.
Next up, Bandai Namco will show off the upcoming Tekken 8. T8 will also be playable at Bandai Namco's booth through Evo 2023, so be sure to swing by and check it out.
As the Friday Showcase winds down, four of the best players in Killer Instinct history will face off. The KI 10-Year Anniversary Invitational will have the players compete in a special exhibition to celebrate a decade of KI.
Finally, Mortal Kombat 11 will get a proper final chapter at Evo. MK11U will be the first Top 6 of Evo 2023 as it closes out Day 1 of the event.
