The evergreen «Counter-Strike: GO» was voted as tournament game for the second time. This means the signup pages are now open for digitec Playground on 6 November!

One cup, two tournaments

digitec Playground consists of two tournaments. One for you pros out there and one for amateurs. The fun edition is open to teams and individual gamers alike. The game is played in teams of five.

There are now two qualifier rounds for both tournaments in which two teams each will earn a spot in the finals. Due to time constraints, only one match will be played in the semifinals. The finals will be carried out in a best-of-three format.

The qualifiers will take place exclusively online. As for the final, we haven’t decided yet whether it will be online or on-site.

Schedule and sign up

Participants can only take part in one of the two tournaments. The number of teams admitted to the qualifiers is 64. If there’s a huge demand, the number may be increased.

Prizes

In cooperation with our partners Logitech G and AOC, we will present the winners with worthy prizes. More details will follow.

As a child, I wasn't allowed to have any consoles. It was only with the arrival of the family's 486 PC that the magical world of gaming opened up to me. Today, I'm overcompensating accordingly. Only a lack of time and money prevents me from trying out every game there is and decorating my shelf with rare retro consoles.
