One of the things we keep getting asked about is re-introducing our costume contest as part of the social side of the events. The last one was way back at epic.SEVEN in Uttoxeter, so we felt it was about time to bring it back!
So on the Friday evening of epic.SIXTEEN, just before the pub quiz, we'll be encouraging as many of you as possible to put together your best costume efforts to really get into the spirit of the LAN.
The very vague theme is general 'geek' culture, so can be anything from movies, TV and of course gaming.
Let's see what creations you can come up with for epic.SIXTEEN in just over 4 weeks!
It's acrobatic, rocket-powered cars playing football, what more could you want from a game?
Rocket League will be joining our epic.SIXTEEN lineup with the winning team taking home free tickets to our following event in February.
The game is growing in popularity, so we'll be seeing how it goes in October and then considering it for our eSports lineup in February 2016. The 3v3 tournament (using the PC version) will take place after the main eSports groups have finished to give more people the chance to take part.
The final four teams have now been selected for our EGX DOTA2 Challenge, sponsored by SCAN Computers.
Winners of the first June Heats: UK Rejects
Winners of Julys Heats: XENEX
epic.FIFTEEN qualifiers: CHOKE Gaming
Winners of Augusts Heats: Barry Li Fanclub (BAZ)
We will see the above four teams in action live from EGX in September - All teams have secured themselves not only access to the tournament but also thanks to EGX they will all also recieve full weekend passes so they can check out and enjoy the event!
But the pressure is on now, as all four teams look to prepare themselves for the finals which will take place on the 27th of September. Stakes are high with over £1000 with of SCAN Credit up for grabs!
More details to follow soon!
