A $100,000 LAN tournament is to be held the weekend following the March 25th release of SMITE, Hi-Rez Studios’ free-to-play MOBA. Over 2.5 million user registrations were created for the open beta.
March 29-30, 2014 is the date of the LAN tourney which will take place in Atlanta, Georgia before a live audience baying for virtual blood. It will throw the top four EU and US teams in the ring.
Those teams will be decided by the SMITE Weekly Tournament Series beginning January 4th, 2014. Hi-Rez confirms that all player progress from the open beta will carry over.
