Wait, prizes?
That’s right, just like the last MC5 tournament, there are going to be prizes for the winners of the different brackets. On iOS these prizes are going to be cold hard cash, while on Android and Windows devices players can compete to earn in game rewards.
Every month on iOS there will be weekly cups and a monthly final. Weekly events carry a prize pool of €100/$100, while the final amasses the victors a pot of €500/$500. There are ESL Go4 cups for both Europe (the Go4MC5 Red Cup) and North America (the Go4MC5 Blue Cup), ensuring there is an event for you.
If you play on Android or Windows then you get the same event brackets. However, prizes here are in-game credits to help you upgrade your guns and armor. You also get to win unique skins for your weapons and suits to really increase your bragging rights.
Six months of competition
These tournaments kicked off last week. But don’t worry if you missed it - this was just the first week in a six month season. To catch up on that Go4MC5 Red Cup match, check out this video:
