The Esports Federation of India (ESFI) has opened the registrations for the upcoming National Esports Championships (NESC) 2024 which will lead to the World Esports Championships (WEC) scheduled to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Organised by the International Esports Federation (IESF), the WEC 2024 will have a total of 609 teams representing their countries across five game titles – Counter-Strike 2 (Open and Female), Dota2, eFootball series, Mobile Legends: Bang Bang (Open and Female), and PUBG MOBILE.
The tournament will kick off on November 11 and boasts a massive $1 million prize pool, distributed among the top 8 teams in each category.
