SAN FRANCISCO – January 14, 2020 – POWER RANGERS: Battle for the Grid invites the best players from across the country to come together to see who reigns supreme! nWay, in partnership with Hasbro and Lionsgate, today announced the POWER RANGERS: Battle for the Grid League. Starting in January 2020, nWay is teaming up with local fighting game communities to discover who is the best POWER RANGERS: Battle for the Grid player in the country.
