Shadowverse Open 2025 - the competitive gateway to Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond - is here! We hope everyone is excited for the series of events we have planned. We’ve received a variety of questions from the community and have put together this FAQ.
- All countries and regions where Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond can be officially downloaded via Steam, Epic Game Store, Google Play or Apple App Store are allowed to participate. The only countries/regions not allowed to join SVO are Japan, China, Korea, and Taiwan.
- SVO tournaments are not region locked, players from any eligible country/region can join any tournament.
- Please see the Tournaments page for the dates and details.
- Please see the Tournaments page for format details and links to the rulesets.
- You will need your Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond account, Start.gg account, Discord account, email address, and a government issued ID.
- You can register for tournaments at our Start.gg hub.
- Players who have already qualified for Shadowverse World Grand Prix 2025 can compete in Shadowverse Open 2025 tournaments for cash prizes, in-game prizes, and SVO Grand Finals qualification slots. If they win or achieve placement for a WGP slot, the slot will be awarded to the next highest placing player.
- The tournament cap is 512 players.
- Tournament Mode will be available for SVO Tournaments. You will need to submit your decks in Tournament Mode in order to participate in SVO Tournaments. All cards currently available in game will be also available in Tournament Mode, so you can submit decks that contain cards that you do not personally own.
- Battlefy currently does not support Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond. Start.gg has the features required for running a Shadowverse: Worlds Beyond tournament and additional tools to help ensure a smooth tournament experience for participants.
