On May 7th 2017, sixty-four of the worlds rising FIFA 17 stars will descend upon Wembley Stadium connected by EE, as they collide in the much-anticipated Emirates FA Cup gaming tournament, Every Gamer’s Adventure.
Players of all abilities are invited to register for the one-day eSports tournament, as each participating professional football club randomly selects one player to represent them in the competition.
In announcing the tournament, Lucy Roberts-Hartley, The Emirates FA Cup, senior brand manager said: “We’re incredibly excited to announce the return of Every Gamer’s Adventure to Wembley Stadium in 2017. Last year’s tournament was action-packed and saw the likes of Bury FC reach the quarter finals, showcasing – much like the real Emirates FA Cup – that truly anything can happen.
“We want to invite gamers from across the world to register for a chance to take part and descend on the home of football, raising the stakes even higher in 2017 to see if anyone else can cause an almighty Emirates FA Cup upset.”
The competition will take place in a variety of iconic locations within Wembley Stadium connected by EE, including the players’ tunnel and the changing rooms. In addition to this, the winning player will also fulfil their childhood dream, by lifting the Emirates FA Cup at Wembley Stadium, while also securing a VIP experience to The Emirates FA Cup Final on Saturday 27 May 2017.
