Mad Catz is partnering with local fighting game outfit Standing Fierce to bring a fighting game tournament to Digital Nationz.

The Mad Catz Mightiest Fighting Game Tournament will take place over both days of Digital Nationz, and see gamers battling it out in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition 2012, and Street Fighter X on Xbox 360.

“We remain focussed on bringing as much content as possible to our expo, and the partnership with Standing Fierce and Mad Catz is another example of us trying to ensure there is something for everyone to watch and engage in,” event organiser Peter Hall said.

Registration for the Mad Catz Mightiest Fighting Game Tournament is free. Attendees interested in taking part in the tournament can sign up on the Standing Fierce forums, or Facebook page.

Digital Nationz takes place on September 28-29 at Vector Arena in Auckland.
