The event will be held between 6 December and 8 December at the NSIC Exhibition Grounds, Okhla, New Delhi. DreamHack events not only contain gaming events, they also host cosplays, live music, streamer zones, comedy shows and more.

We’re going to take a look at what gaming events are being held in DreamHack 2019. Here are the different events DreamHack 2019 will entail.

#1 Who can participate?

Broadly speaking, there are two categories of tournaments that will be featured in DreamHack Delhi 2019. These categories are Gamer Participant and Casual Participant.

For Gamer Participants, you’ll need to BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) such as your console or BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer). Gamer Participants can earn a much bigger piece of the pie, depending on which tournament they are participating in.

Casual Participants won’t really be able to play in the invitational tournaments but they will have access to the Expo as well as table-top and retro games (these are classic games such as Mario, Metroid, and games from older generation consoles). Casual Participants can earn a share from a total prize pool of ₹1.5 Lakhs.

#2 Console/Mobile Tournaments (BYOD)

As part of the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) set of tournaments, players can bring their consoles or mobile devices to participate. For all the games, you can win ₹15,000 for prizing first place and ₹5,000 for prizing second. All you need is your device and your skills!

Here are the list of games available in this tournament category:

Mobile Legends: Bang Bang - MobileFIFA 20 - PS4/Xbox OneClash Royale - MobileDota Underlords - MobileBrawl Stars - MobileRocket League - PS4/Xbox One

#3 PC Gaming Tournaments (BYOC)
