A lot of the big drawing titles are not in a great state (SF6 is just becoming stagnant with how dry the game is with its updates, Tekken 8 still hasn't recovered from one of the worst balance patches of all time)
Prices are too expensive even for some domestic players, let alone anyone who would want to fly in for it.
On that note, there are more iterations of Evo coming with Evo France. I think players will be more interested in going to the Evo closest to their region in the state the world is in at the moment
