It seems today is the day for making esports announcements, as the ELEAGUE made it official today that they will be hosting Tekken 7 tournaments live on Twitch and TBS, starting with Tekken Team Takedown that will kick off on March 3rd. Below are the complete details about the upcoming games via their press release sent earlier today, but it appears they're going to aim to go head-to-head against tournaments like Dreamhack as a primary broadcaster for Tekken.
