Players can play the qualifying songs on any Single difficulty. EX score across all 6 qualifying songs will be combined, with the top 48 earning a spot in the tournament. The top player from each of the following regions will be automatically invited regardless of overall placement:
In the event a qualifying player is unable to attend, their slot will be offered to the next best player.
Additionally, each region listed above will receive 1 additional guaranteed slot for every 10 players from that region in the top 200. Players from any country not covered by the above groups (Africa, Europe) will be considered to be a single additional region, and can gain a guaranteed slot this way.
Lastly, the top player from the state of Colorado will receive a slot if there would otherwise be no player from the state.
You may qualify on any arcade DDR hardware running A20+ or newer, including machines that are offline, in local mode, or not connected to eAmusement. The following are strictly not permitted:
All qualifying song scores must be submitted no later than January 16, 2023 at 5pm (17:00) UTC. Players that qualify for the tournament will be contacted at that time via their profile information on this website.
Yes! You can submit improved scores any time before the cutoff on January 16, 2023 at 5pm (17:00) UTC. Use the same account on the Upbeat 2023 website.
All competitors will have hotel and local transportation covered for the duration of the tournament. Competitors from outside North America will have airfare partially reimbursed; the exact amount available is still being determined.
