omni arena

eSports tournaments are gaining traction all over the globe. Not just limited to popular PC games like CS: GO, Rainbow Six Siege, Fortnite, and several others – but it is now a thing for mobile games as well.

In other words, no matter what the platform is – the competitive scene for gaming (in general) is improving a lot.

Now, HP and Virtuix have joined hands to sponsor a virtual reality eSports tournament with a cash prize pool of $100,000 excluding the additional goodies.

For a VR-based competitive event, this is a very good prize pool to start with.

In case you are wondering, Omni Arena will be utilized for the tournament developed by Virtuix Inc. It provides a free-roam experience while you play a VR game (as you can see in the image above).

It may not be the most common VR experience that you will get elsewhere – so it is definitely interesting to see the demand for a unique VR-based eSports tournament.

These motion-based VR experiences shall provide a fun experience for both the players and the spectators in the tournament.
