Today, Ubisoft announced a partnership with Twitch to host the ‘Twitch Rivals : Hyper Scape APAC Showdown’ on Thursday, August 27. The event will be the first cross-region event held in the Asia-Pacific region, inviting 60 creators from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and Hong Kong to participate.
Four teams from each region, comprised of Twitch creators, will compete in a 3-hour point race, and the top-ranking team from each region will advance to the Finals where they will participate in a separate, 1-hour kill race to determine final placement. The prize pool is up to $50,000 USD with extra bonus prizes.
Viewers of the competition will be given the opportunity to influence their favorite streamers’ gameplay by taking part in pop-up voting events that instantly impact the battlefield via Hyper Scape’s Crowncast extension, a unique feature that Twitch offers exclusively.
