With the easing of COVID19 restrictions globally, an in-person gathering of players gives us an opportunity to bring back the glory of LAN tournaments.

Together, we look forward to bringing the much-needed LAN experience to every esports lover in the country,” said Akshat Rathee, MD & Co-Founder, NODWIN Gaming.

Commenting on the association, Anirudh Pandita and Ashwin Suresh, Founders of Loco said: “LAN tournaments have always been the soul of the gaming experience and we, at Loco, are pumped to provide the Indian gaming community with the first major LAN event post the lockdown.
