The eSports culture here in Singapore is growing at a steady pace, with plenty of gaming enthusiasts in the scene for popular and competitive games like DOTA 2, League of Legends, FIFA Online, and of course, Street Fighter, which boasts our very own World Champion pugilist Xian. Now, the first-person shooting genre is pushing up in gear, with last year’s Overwatch Champions PC Tournament at GameStart 2016 an opening salvo for Blizzards’s amazing team shooter.
