Attendees can immerse themselves in all things Summoners War with action-packed tournaments, thrilling amusement park rides, cosplay competitions, meet and greets with leading influencers, award-winning cuisine from local food trucks and live musical performances featuring world-renowned artists and DJs. Fans outside of Los Angeles can also tune into the Summoners War action in real time via live stream on the official Com2us Twitch and YouTube channels.

“With more than 90 million downloads worldwide, Summoners War continues to grow and attract new fans on a massive scale as we observe the game’s fourth anniversary,” said Casey Lee, CEO of Com2us USA. “Partnering with Ultimate Media Ventures for this year’s World Arena Championship Americas Cup will further solidify Summoners War as a global brand committed to its passionate fan base. We’re proud to work alongside a dedicated partner that understands our gaming community and can deliver an unprecedented fan experience to a diverse audience.”

To qualify for the Americas Cup, 16 players, also known as “Summoners,” have been selected based on their scores from the World Arena Season 5 and last year’s finalists from New York and Los Angeles to compete on July 14 in a twelve-round online tournament that will be live streamed on Twitch and YouTube. Only the top four Summoners will advance to the Semi Finals and Finals at Americas Cup in September, where the first and second place winners will earn their spot in the World Finals in Seoul on October 13 against finalists from the Asia Cup and Europe Cup for a grand prize of $110,000.

“Since launch over 4 years ago, the incredible growth of Summoners War is primarily attributable to the strength of its community,” said Chris Mann, President of Ultimate Media Ventures. “Working with Com2us, our mission is to translate the experience beyond the screen into a memorable fan event that will mark an important milestone for the Summoners War brand. The event provides the opportunity to connect and share our passion for gaming and esports by getting to know the people behind their Summoners and celebrate the Com2us community.
