Gamers 8 Club Awards is a new innovative rewards format which uses a point-based system for awarding eSports teams participating in multiple tournaments. Additional rewards will be unlocked depending on the success of clubs throughout the eight-week Festival.
The Gamers8 Club Awards are part of Saudi Arabia’s mission to invest more in the eSports industry. They will help the Kingdom to increase the opportunities for everyone involved with eSports. This innovative format, which breaks down barriers and encourages investment, will pave way for unprecedented collaboration among clubs, teams and organizers.

* Teams that compete in more than one Gamers8 title will earn points for their respective finishes, unlocking additional performance-based rewards and opportunities.
The Chairman of the Saudi Esports Federation Prince Faisal Bin Bandar Bin Sultan said, “This latest announcement demonstrates our commitment to realizing eSports’ full potential and providing development opportunities for everyone as the industry’s evolution unfolds.” As the world’s top eSports players return to Gamers8 for a battle of glory and global dominance, they do so with the knowledge that this new concept is going to elevate the competition, expand gamers’ horizons, and open up a new world of opportunities in the coming years. We are thrilled to share this news with you and we look forward to announcing this new format this summer.
Organizations competing in this year’s Gamers8 are required to participate in two competitions. Even though some clubs won’t be taking part in multiple tournaments this year, the format is a great way to show eSports teams around the globe that it’s time to start preparing for the new era of eSports where they can earn rewards like never before.
Prince Faisal stated that the “Gamers8 Club Awards” is a great opportunity for clubs to view tournaments holistically rather than from the perspective of an individual team and to play a significant role in the growth and development of their club and the global esports industry. The world’s largest gaming and eSports event is the perfect place to introduce this format. We can’t even wait until July, when the action starts.
Gamers8 will return on July 6, 2023 under the theme “Gamers8 – The Land of Heroes” with a total prize pool of more than $45 million. All titles will be revealed in due time.
The Club Awards will take place at the Next World Forum at the end the eight-week Gamers8 Season. This gaming forum will bring together industry leaders and experts around the globe. The ceremony, which will be live-streamed on the Next World Forum and Gamers8 Twitch and YouTube Channels, will award the top teams as well as additional awards in individual and team categories.
The Gamers8 channel and the weekly tournament streams will keep fans updated on all the competitions during the festival. The event website has all the information you need about Gamers8, including ticket sales.
