EA has announced the launch of the EA Sports Challenge Series, a sports video game tournament which will determine which gamers are the best at Madden NFL 12, NHL 12 and FIFA 12.
The tournament is powered by Virgin Gaming and exclusive to PlayStation 3 gamers in the US, Europe and the UK.
Participants will compete to win their share of over $1 million in cash and prizes, the largest prize money of any console-based sports gaming tournament ever.
“Virgin Gaming is earning a reputation for hosting the biggest gaming tournaments, but our members have been asking for even larger prize pools. That’s what drove the creation of the EA Sports Challenge Series; the idea came from them,” said Rob Segal, CEO of Virgin Gaming. “This is also the perfect opportunity to bring our unique tournament format to the masses, giving gamers the freedom to compete whenever they want, instead of according to a set schedule. Those who make it through the online qualifier phase will then earn a seat to play in the live finals for huge cash prizes and true e-sport star status.”
