Welcome to the homepage for the UFG, the first ever UK university fighting game league! Working with NSE and featuring multiple games, we aim to produce a competitive online environment for university students in the UK, to allow for the development of the scene and its players as a combined body. We also encourage content production, discussion, and a nationwide community of like-minded competitors.

In 2018, we launched our Discord community (now over 900 members!), and began running online events for Street Fighter V, Dragon Ball Fighter Z, Tekken 7, Mortal Kombat, Smash Ultimate, BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle, Under Night In-Birth and more. At the beginning of 2019, we hosted our first multi-game Winter Season split, complete with prizes. We’ve since gone on to host many more Seasons of competition, fostering storylines and connections within the University Fighting Game Community. 

2022 Spring Season

UFG is back for the new year, alongside 4 titles in our Spring Season! We’ve got one more Split for mainstays Street Fighter V and Tekken 7, together with the explosive Guilty Gear Strive and Melty Blood: Type Lumina!
Tournaments begin week commencing 21st February, and run for seven total weeks. Note that we’ll be trialling a new tournament start time of 7:30pm.
Our competition is open to all students with an NSE account, so good luck! You should join our Discord community for updates and to keep up to date with our other tournaments: http://unifight.games/
