Dive Into VR Esports And New Experiences at EMFHK 2018

ZOTAC is taking virtual reality to the next level this year at the E-sports and Music Festival in Hong Kong. At the VIVE x ZOTAC VR Arena, visitors are guaranteed a one-of-a-kind, immersive VR experience spanning all three days including performances, competitive tournaments, and free-to-play fun.

Front Defense: Heroes, dubbed one of the most intense VR multiplayer war shooter games, is coming to EMFHK in VIVE and ZOTAC’s first co-hosted tournament. Watch as the five best teams from China, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam converge in Hong Kong for the first time to compete live on stage for the champion title after battling through the grueling rounds of qualifiers.
