Razer has announced the next stop for its global esports series with the Razer Invitational Middle East. Following the global success of Razer Invitational Season 2020, the tournament series is now making its debut in the Middle East. Welcoming competitors from across the region and of all abilities, players can compete in four separate week-long tournaments pitting their skills against the best the region has to offer. Happening for the very first time in the Middle East, this will be the largest MENA-based open tournament of its kind.
The Razer Invitational Middle East will kick off on August 8th with what promises to be four days of hotly contested Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War tournament play, followed by some intense VALORANT action from August 15th to 19th. The focus then shifts to mobile play between August 22nd to 26th with PUBG Mobile before the event closes out with some classic MOBA action in League of Legends from August 29th to September 2nd 2021.
Razer Invitational Middle East is the second event in the Razer Invitational Season 2021 calendar after the North America event which was concluded in June.
