King George to participate and so can you!
The Rainbow Six Siege Mexico Major is in full swing, and if it's giving you that itch to compete yourself then the Kings Cup will be right down your alley. King George's Kings Cup is a $1,000 free-entry event that is being held every third Saturday in August, September and October! Aside from the prize money, the beauty of the Kings Cup is it is open to PC players of all skill levels in North America.
The events are being organised by FirstBlood, who also ran the Near Warzone Showcase and the Slaystation Invitational Series. The Kings Cup is part of several initiatives by FirstBlood to grow the grassroots communities of titles such as Call of Duty: Warzone and Rainbow Six Siege. The first of three Kings Cups will take place on August 21st (sign-up details below).
“We are excited to expand our partnership with KingGeorge to build on the foundation of providing free events for the community that encourage players of all skill levels to compete and expand their esports horizons," said Emily Peel, Director of Business Development at FirstBlood.
