Xborg launches $100K web3 esports league, Xtreme Championship Series

Xborg, the web3 gaming organization from Swissborg, announced on Feb. 1 that it is launching a web3 esports league entitled Xtreme Championship Series with a $100,000 USDC prize pool.

The league will include web3 games Axie Infinity, The Harvest, Gods Unchained, Spider Tanks, and ev.io with no sign-up fee or other barriers to entry. Three rounds of monthly qualifiers will be followed by a championship round which will be live-streamed on Xborg’s Twitch channel.

The esports league will be accompanied by a 15-episode behind-the-scenes series following the players, organizers, and developers as they battle through each round.

XBorg CEO Louis Regis said,

“For those outside of Web3, the general perception is that there are no high quality Web3 games to play. With this tournament we intend to change that perception. We strongly believe competitive Web3 gaming has arrived and is here to stay.”

The tournament starts on Mar. 6 and runs until late July. Player sign-ups are live now via the Xborg website.
