Whether you’re gearing up to be a competitor or just interested in what the best of the best for both PvE and PvP content has to offer then you’ll be excited to hear that the AWC and MDI for 2023 are being officially announced!
This is not just a game, it’s a serious competition now with over $1.5 million in prize money on the line. Both will be following the same seasonal format players are familiar with in the game, which is a bit of a change of pace for the AWC.
Make sure to check it out on the official Warcraft Twitch and Youtube channels! Read below for the full details.
The Arena World Championship and Mythic Dungeon International return in 2023 to dive into all that Dragonflight has to offer.
With more than $1.6 million (USD) of prizing on the line, 2023 is bound to be another great year for the Arena World Championship (AWC) and Mythic Dungeon International (MDI). In addition to the quest for immortality and taking home a share of the prize pools, all players across both programs will be able to earn the new in-game Thundering Banner of the Aspects. Registration is now open for the first events, which will all be broadcast live on Twitch and YouTube!
ARENA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
With the launch of Dragonflight, we’re taking a new seasonal approach to the Arena World Championship.  The AWC will consist of two full seasons of competition tied directly to in-game seasons, with each culminating in epic Season Grand Finals boasting a $300,000 (USD) prize pool and the chance to be crowned that season’s Dragonflight Champions.
Each in-game Season will feature a full competition of qualifier Cups, with the top three teams per region advancing to the Grand Finals, while teams placed 4-8 will move to the all-new AWC Gauntlet. The AWC Gauntlet is a single-elimination bracket tournament with the last standing team from each region securing the final spots at the Grand Finals!
SEASON 1
Beginning today, teams in Europe and North America can sign up on GameBattles for the Dragonflight Season 1 Cups, where they’ll earn the new in-game Thundering Banner of the Aspects as they battle for their chance at advancing to the Grand Finals. There will be four open Cups divided per region, where teams will compete for points as well as $20,000 (USD) prize money per Cup. After all the Cups and the AWC Gauntlet, the remaining four teams in each region will face off in the Spring during the Season 1 Grand Finals for their share of the combined $300,000 (USD) prize pool!
We can’t wait to get the Dragonflight competitions underway, so be sure to sign up on GameBattles. Stay connected and on top of the latest news by subscribing to our Twitch and YouTube channels and following the WoW Esports Twitter.
