The hunt begins at PAX East!

Giant monsters are invading PAX East this weekend as the competitive multiplayer shooter, Evolve, makes its way to the convention with the Evolve ESL Pro-AM Tournament.

The tournament begins on Friday, March 6th from 10:00am to 7:00pm ET and eight teams comprised of "Hunters" and "Monsters" will be participating in these best of three single-elimination style match-ups right on the ESL Arena Stage. Mastery Bonus boosts, Character Perks and Elite Wildlife will be turned off for the tournament in order to provide a more competitive experience. The teams making up the tournament roster consist of Pro gamers, YouTube content creators, Twitch streamers and aspiring competitive players in the Evolve community.

If you're unable to make it to PAX this weekend–or you're simply avoiding the wintry Boston weather conditions–you can watch the full tournament live at Twitch.tv/EvolveGame. As the week continues all eight participating tournament teams will be revealed, so be sure to check out the Evolve Tournament Blog post for more details.
