Johannesburg South, it is your turn. The MTN SHIFT Gaming Experience is the country’s only gaming tournament staged at malls nationwide, making competitive gaming accessible to established players, first-time entrants and curious spectators. The eight-mall series carries a total prize pool of R350 000, with winners earning prizes and the chance to compete in the national finals.
The action begins with an EA FC 26™ online qualifier on 21 June, where the top four players secure a direct place in The Glen Mall Final. Players can also enter one of 12 in-centre heats during the event weekend. The Mall Final winner will receive a R2 500 mall gift card and qualify for the National Football Final, where a R50 000 prize pool is up for grabs. Second and third place will win gift cards worth R1 500 and R1 000 respectively.
