==Official Game Lineup==
The official game lineup for EVO 2015 was announced on January 20th, by Joey Cuellar, during a live stream on Twitch.tv, with Mike Ross as host. Notably for this year's edition was the inclusion of two ''Smash'' games on the official lineup, for the first time, with the return of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' alongside {{forwiiu}}. The decision to include both games was made after continued interest in ''Melee'' was noted by the staff, following the release of  ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', with the record breaking numbers for [[Apex 2015]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjiscOndons&feature=youtu.be&t=35m51s |title=Evolution 2015 Games Reveal |publisher=Twitch |accessdate=2015-06-23}}</ref>
