UK esports organisation Endpoint have announced the details of their UK invitational, The Foundry Quake LAN.
This will take place in Sheffield on the weekend of November 4th to 5th 2023, Endpoint clarified after posting a date typo in the tweet below.
The prize pool for The Foundry Quake LAN is set at an initial £1,000, courtesy of Endpoint, with this potentially rising further based on crowdfunding.
On top of this, Endpoint is offering travel support up to £250 per player, as well as accommodation and food, with each LAN competitor also receiving a Noblechairs Hero Doom Edition.
Invited players so far include Endpoint’s Av3k and k1llsen.
An open qualifier for The Foundry Quake LAN will take place on Saturday October 7th 2023, with the sign up page for this now live on the Toornament website.
The news comes a month and a half after the Quake World Championship 2023 took place at QuakeCon, with Endpoint player Maciej ‘Av3k’ Krzykowski missing out due to travel and passport issues.
With Endpoint’s Sheffield HQ opening earlier this year, expect more events and LANs to take place there.
Earlier this year, UK & Ireland Circuit, a CSGO Faceit hub and tournament organiser run by Endpoint, announced its first LAN event. This will take place at Endpoint’s Sheffield HQ in December.
Endpoint, known for their Counter-Strike team, also reached the finals of the last ever CSGO ESL Premiership LAN earlier this month at Insomnia Gaming Festival, where they lost to Raptors in the final.
Elsewhere in the world of Counter-Strike right now, everyone is talking about the freshly launched game, CS2.
