Turner and IMG’s ELEAGUE, in partnership with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, will offer fans the first-ever ELEAGUE “Injustice 2” World Championship presented by PS4. The event, featuring NetherRealm Studios’ critically-acclaimed, super-powered fighting game, began Friday, October 27, with the Championships scheduled for November 10.
The World Championship features the game’s most accomplished players competing for $250,000 in prize money. Live TBS coverage will follow the Championships at 10.00pm ET on Friday, November 10.
ELEAGUE will present a rotation of fighting game experts and former pro players to cast each match and break down all the live action from ELEAGUE Arena. Richard Lewis will return as studio host, joined by ELEAGUE newcomers Joshua Gray (reporter), Bryant “Kitana Prime” Benzing (commentator) and David “Ultra David” Graham (commentator). ELEAGUE will also bring back popular casters Stephen “Sajam” Lyon, Steve “Tasty Steve” Scott, Reepal “Rip” Parbhoo and Zhi “Zhieeep” Liang Chew from the ELEAGUE Street Fighter V Invitational.
Will this be a yearly tournament or is it just a one time only show?
