The Carolina Games Summit will be bringing both Halo and CoD 4v4 as well as Rocket League 2v2 and 3v3. If sports games are more your taste, there will also be Madden and FIFA 2K17. Last but not least there will be Smash Bros 4 and Melee.
In addition to the above mentioned tournaments, attendees can enjoy the arcade as well as virtual reality with both the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive. This year the board game area will be expanded with demos and contests run by Atlantis Games & Comics.
Come meet the Denial ESports Rocket League team members, watch our show matches on stage, or spend some time with our other special guests. Attendees can enter the cosplay contest to show off their craftsmanship and creativity or just choose to visit the many exhibitors and artist.
