Finnish game developer Supercell has announced that the largest yearly competitions of its mobile titles Brawl Stars, Clash of Clans and Clash Royale will culminate at SuperFest.
The inaugural edition of the multi-title esports event will run from November 1st-3rd, uniting the Brawl Stars World Finals 2024, the Clash of Clans World Championship Finals 2024 and the Clash Royale League 2024: World Finals.
SuperFest is set to take place at the Helsinki Exhibition and Convention Center in Finland. During the event, mobile esports fans and content creators can watch some of the world’s top players compete for the lion’s share of their respective prize pools — $1m (~£761,000) for the Brawl Stars and Clash of Clans circuit and $900,000 (~£685,000) for the Clash Royale league.
Each day will feature matches from all three games, which can be viewed either in person or on the Supercell event website. Moreover, fans may comment underneath the SuperFest announcement video for a chance to win tickets to the event.
Founded in 2010, Finnish game developer Supercell specialises in the creation of mobile games, including Hay Day, Boom Beach and Squad Busters. In 2019, Chinese technology conglomerate Tencent took a majority stake in the developer by increasing its previously owned 50% stake by another 1.2% for $40m (~£30.8m).
Supercell’s multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) shooter Braw Stars, in particular, has been one of the more popular mobile esports among Western audiences. Despite a viewership decline between the 2022 and 2023 World Finals, the creator announced an increased prize pool for the game’s 2024 season.
Shortly after, Supercell partnered with ESL FACEIT Group (EFG) to continue operating the circuit under EFG’s Snapdragon Pro Series tournament series on a larger scale than before.
