Giving Wings to the Japanese Gaming World. What is Red Bull 5G?
Red Bull 5G " is a gaming event that started in 2012 with the aim of giving wings to the Japanese gaming world.
Each year, a different game title is chosen from the five genres of SPORTS / RACING / FIGHTING / PUZZLE / FREE, and the top players from each genre compete in the preliminary rounds and in the East and West regional representative rounds. The top players who have won the games have been divided into two teams and clashed with each other.
The format of the tournament, in which players from genres with which they do not normally interact form teams to compete, has attracted a great deal of attention, with many players working hard to master the titles selected for the tournament from scratch in order to participate. This event, which is slightly different from other game tournaments, is attracting a lot of attention in the game industry.
Recently, the aspects of games as a "sport" and "profession" have been emphasized, but the event also focuses once again on the "fun" and "enjoyment" inherent in games, and asks the question, "Why do we play games? Why do we play games? The 6th Red Bull 5G will be held for the first time in five years, and will return to the roots of why we play games in the first place!
Please check out the article on Saiga NAK for more information on the titles selected for this year's competition and an overview of the event!
