Following the demise of the World Series of Video Games, IDG World Expo announced today that Major League Gaming will have a special event at the Entertainment for All Expo. MLG will create a special post-season tournament exclusively for E for All, which will take place after its championship tournament in Las Vegas. MLG’s E for All tournament will have pro and amateurs players, along with an interactive feature for the audience called “Get Better First,” and thousands of dollars in cash prizes. “We are thrilled about the opportunity to bring Major League Gaming to this high-profile event,” said Matthew Bromberg, CEO of Major League Gaming. “It’s important for all of us in the video game community to support this great new way of reaching consumers and to showcase the phenomenon of top-flight competitive gaming.”

“We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: E for All is about one thing – games, games and games. Competitive gaming is a central part of that game experience, and we couldn’t be happier to team up with Major League Gaming to allow E for All attendees to participate in the excitement and energy of competitive game play with some of the best, most talented gamers in the field today,” said Mary Dolaher, CEO, IDG World Expo. “Whether you’re a casual gamer or a seasoned player, the MLG tournament will keep you on the edge of your seat with incredible action and amazing game play.”
