Ooredoo has announced the launch of the Ooredoo Gaming Cup, a new mobile e-sport tournament to bring together gamers in the community in an exciting new challenge.
Ooredoo has joined forces with Free Fire (Garena) to bring customers the Ooredoo Gaming Cup, its new online tournament that lets gamers pit themselves against fellow gamers in a Solo mode series, at the end of which will be a Solo qualifier to create a Leaderboard.
The top 48 players on the Leaderboard will then go on to form 12 squads and compete in a grand championship for great prizes. Free Fire is one of the top grossing games currently being played, with more than 500mn active users across the globe.
Sabah Rabiah al-Kuwari, director, PR at Ooredoo, said: “We’re excited to launch this new online tournament for our customers. We know many are keen gamers, and, being able to rely on the speed and reliability of our networks, they’re always looking for fun new ways in which to challenge themselves.
“These past months have shown us all a new way of connecting and interacting, and this new tournament is the ideal way for our gaming customers to both connect with fellow gamers and experience the best our networks have to offer. We wish everyone the best of luck.”
Techninier CEO Dato’Lion Peh said, “e-sports have risen in popularity during the ongoing pandemic situation, as people are spending more time at home and looking for alternative entertainment. Our aim with the Ooredoo Gaming Cup – powered by Techninier - is for it to be a platform via which gamers can form connections based on their shared love of gaming, and enjoy an enhanced gaming experience at home.”
The Ooredoo Gaming Cup is open to all Ooredoo subscribers for QR3 per day.
