Daybreak Games har afsløret i dag at de vil tilføje en såkaldt Elite Series til H1Z1: King of the Kill, som bliver en eSportsliga med fire stor begivenheder i Europa, Nordamerika, Asien og Latinamerika. Hver af disse har en præmiepulje på $250.000.
"The Elite Series shines a spotlight on the skill and passion of our players from around the world, bringing the community closer together through online programming and in-person competition. It's an arena for the best head-to-head H1Z1 action and will undoubtedly have viewers and players on the edge of their seat. There is nothing that can match the scale or intensity of an H1Z1 tournament where everyone is dropped in together, competing amidst the mayhem to be the last one standing, and we are excited to continue to develop this new genre of esports." fortæller Mark Tuttle fra Daybreak Games.
Serien starter ved DreamHack Atlanta fra d. 21 juli til d. 23 juli, hvor der både afholdes en turnering for hold på fem spillere, samt en soloturnering.
De har sågar udgivet en trailer for initiativet. Hvad synes du?
