Scotland’s largest gaming festival, Resonate Total Gaming, is partnering with esports specialists epic.LAN and Curry’s PC World to provide a weekend of competitive gaming across two arenas for visitors at SEC, Glasgow on 19-21 October 2018.
Visitors can compete on esports titles CS:GO and Rocket League to win prizes. Curry’s PC world will have a separately branded arena where players can compete on titles like Fortnite and Black Ops 4. The weekend timetable of esports competitions includes a mixture of on-the-day bookings and pre-registered tournaments for visitors.
