Returning to TwitchCon for its second year is Daybreak™’s H1Z1
Invitational
. In this spectator-friendly, fast-paced tournament
event, participants compete in large-scale PvP shooter spectacles of
skill and wit, where everyone must fight to the death to stand alone at
the top of the podium. At last year’s inaugural H1Z1 Invitational,
more than 356K unique viewers tuned in to watch 60 of the most popular
broadcasters and players compete in Battle Royale matches to win their
share of over $173,000 in prize money.

Daybreak is kicking off their Road to TwitchCon with King of the Kill™
livestreams from PAX East all weekend long from 4/23-4/24. Fans can tune
in to watch some of their favorite participants from last year’s
Invitational fight it out in intense Battle Royale matches. Visit the
game’s website
and follow King of the Kill on Twitter
where they will be revealing information about the prize pool,
competitors, community contests, on-site TwitchCon qualifiers, and more
throughout the summer.

TwitchCon 2016 will take place September 30-October 2 at the San Diego
Convention Center in San Diego, CA. To assist with accommodations,
Twitch has negotiated travel discounts and secured a limited number of
reduced-rate hotel rooms near the convention center. Since rooms at the
group rate are limited and available on a first-come, first-served
basis, book early for the best selection and price through Twitch’s online
booking system
.
