Standard Reg is ending soon.

At CB2026 we're celebrating 15 years of NRS! As part of ALL IN TOGETHER I'm hosting tourneys for all legacy NRS games, each one with a pot bonus supported by NetherRealm Studios! We're also hosting a History of NRS exhibition & online tourneys with TNS! combobreaker.org/celebrating-nrs

15 years ago NetherRealm Studios released Mortal Kombat 9. The game inspired me to run consistent locals. Many sequels (and an Injustice franchise) later, bringing people together to play games I love is still what I want my events to be about.

The Indie Dev Gallery returns to CB2026! 10+ visiting developers are looking for your feedback on their latest home grown fighting games. Find out more at combobreaker.org/indie-dev-gallery!

Additional rooms for CB2026 have opened up at the following nearby hotels: • Residence Inn • SpringHill Suites • Courtyard by Marriott Direct booking links available at combobreaker.org/plan-your-visit.
