The TWT 2024 is a really exciting tournament format that has been designed to cater to players at all levels of competency without jeopardizing the competitiveness of the tour. There are three tiers in the tour: Master+ Events, Master Events, and Challenger Events. These three tiers provide different points-gathering opportunities for players in their respective ways to climb up the rankings across the Global and Regional Leaderboards.

Master+ events are the top-level tournaments where the best-competing players are given a chance to play based on good performances that they have had in previous tournaments. Such events have significant points up for grabs through placings; that is, fierce competition among elites. In comparison with Master events, indeed, there is another level of competition to an even slightly lesser amount of points on stakes still attracting skilled participants aimed at proving themselves on a bigger scale.

Challenger tournaments serve as a strategy for stimulating grassroots participation within the Tekken community. These challenges tend to be small, community-led, or small organizations and provide a means for rising talent to expose themselves in competition with fellow developing players. It encourages and opens channels for engagement in all directions of the community while helping identify those who might eventually rise through the ranks with time.
