Summary

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 1000 members!), and began running online events for Street Fighter, Dragon Ball Fighter Z, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, Smash Ultimate, and more. At the beginning of 2019, we hosted our first multi-game Season, 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.

2024 Winter Season

A new academic year brings another round of UFG Leagues! Our big three returning games are Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8 and Guilty Gear Strive! As new DLC drops for each game, we can’t wait to see how the level of play continues to evolve!

Tournaments begin the week commencing October 14th, and run for a total of 7 weeks!

Our competition is open to all students with an NSE account! You should join our Discord community for updates and to keep up to date with our other tournaments: http://unifight.games/
