MLG Pro Circuit 2013 offers improved event experience
Major League Gaming has announced changes to its live events, introducing improvements for those who make the effort to attend in person.
The layout of the event floor has been completely redesigned, and split into General and VIP sections. A special theatre-style arena will cater to Call of Duty: Black Ops fans, and view screen size has been increased.
Casters will be visible front-and-centre instead of behind-the-scenes, and spectators will have more opportunities to go hands-on at gameplay stations.
Those who purchase VIP tickets will be welcomed with a reception before the event kicks off, will be given a tour of the facilities b MLGy co-founder Sundance DiGiovanni, and will score front-row seating for one event, among other goodies.
The first event to benefit from the changes is the Winter Championship in Dallas from March 15-17. Tickets go on sale at 5:00PM ET on February 5. Check out the details of the various pass below.
