For the first time ever, players of Blizzard Entertainment's popular real-time strategy game StarCraft® II: Wings of Liberty™ will come from around the world to join an all-star Halo: Reach line-up at the next Red Bull LAN in Santa Monica, California from September 30 - October 2.
Twelve of the world’s best StarCraft II players (four from each of the game’s races -- terran, protoss, and zerg) will join three of the league’s most dominant Halo: Reach teams in one of competitive gaming’s most sought-after training programs. For 10 hours each day over three days, some of the sharpest minds and fastest fingers in the world will gather at an innovative training facility developed by Red Bull to broaden their skills and prepare for their upcoming professional gaming competitions.
While the Red Bull LAN is closed to spectators, the event will be streamed live each night for six hours. Fans of eSports competition in both StarCraft II and Halo: Reach will be able to get an up close and personal view of their favorite gamers’ progress throughout this extensive training weekend with individual point-of-view options for each participating player.
Broadcast on RedBullUSA.com/LAN and Twitch.tv/redbullgaming, the live show will be hosted by none other than Sean “Day9” Plott, a well-known StarCraft II commentator, and Danish “Dmaq” Maqbool for Halo: Reach commentary.
