All-new open and inclusive multi-divisional team league offers players more opportunities to compete, with USD $170,000 prize pool and a chance to qualify for the inaugural Esports World Cup
ESL FACEIT Group (EFG), the leading esports and video game entertainment company, today announced the launch of FACEIT League, an Overwatch® team League operated by FACEIT, the world’s leading online platform for competitive gaming. The all-new open circuit invites players of all skill levels across six regions to compete for their chance to win a share of the $170,000 prize pool and secure a seat at top regional slots in the inaugural Esports World Cup (EWC) taking place this summer.
FACEIT League builds on the success of the platform’s long-running Counter-Strike model, which fosters gaming communities through always-on, consistent, and rewarding structured competition and an emphasis on teamwork. An extension of ESL FACEIT Group’s multi-year agreement with Blizzard Entertainment to drive the growth of Overwatch Esports, the new community platform offers players opportunities to go from grassroots play to the world stage.
“The response from Overwatch players on FACEIT has exceeded our expectations and illustrates the need for the robust, sustainable structure that we’re building with FACEIT League,” said Warren Leigh, Senior Vice President of Product, Digital Platforms, ESL FACEIT Group. “With over 50 seasons of Counter-Strike experience building some of the most successful grassroots esports ecosystems, having the opportunity to support the Overwatch community with a bespoke program is incredibly exciting.”
FACEIT League will offer multiple seven-week seasons each year, maximizing the number of opportunities for players in North America; EMEA (Europe, the Middle East, North Africa), Oceania, and South America to compete. The circuit caters to all levels of players, from fledgeling first-timers to experienced teams, presenting more opportunities to showcase raw talent and help them practice, improve, and qualify for in-person events with substantial prize pools. The Regular Season 1 takes place from April 29 to June 9, with the winning teams progressing to the Playoffs happening from June 10-23. Teams will then compete for a coveted $170,000 FACEIT League cash prize, as well as higher division promotion and a seat across EMEA, North America, Oceania and South America slots at the Esports World Cup taking place this Summer 2024.
Divisions for each region will be split into Master: Road to Esports World Cup; Expert, Advanced, and Open, with an Advanced division available for players from EMEA and North America.

COSY UP WITH WILD WINS AND MAGIC MULTIPLIERS IN LUCKY CUSHIONS BY BOLDPLAY
Get ready to put your feet up and ease into a world of cascading wins in Lucky Cushions by Boldplay – the brand-new cluster pays slot where perfect pillow placement can result in players landing consecutive wins on each and every spin!
Played across an expanded 8×8 gameboard, action takes place in front of a cosy backdrop littered with colourful cushions and players will need to put together clusters of matching icons to trigger a symbol cascade. Whenever this happens, all cushions featured in the cluster will be removed from play as new ones drop from above to fill their place, potentially creating additional payouts.
What makes Lucky Cushions comfortably stand out from other cluster pays slots, however, is its exciting bonus features. Firstly, on each new round, players will notice that one non-wild icon will be selected at random to receive an additional multiplier. Any cluster wins that this special symbol appears in will see the regular win boosted by the multiplier value for even better rewards.
On top of that, the game’s wild symbol not only substitutes for all regular icons to complete winning clusters, but when it does, all matching cushions elsewhere on the reels will also be removed, potentially triggering an improved cascade. This effect can also stack after each new cascade, with players able to land consecutive wins on each game round.
To make those well-furnished wins even easier to come by, whenever a spin takes place where no clusters appear and there’s a matching symbol in one of the adjacent reel spaces, it will magically swap positions to complete a cluster and give players an additional chance to start a cascade.
Speaking on this cosy new addition to the Boldplay slot catalogue, Head of Design, Marcus Taylor said: “With its cascading reels, wild wins and big-money multipliers, Lucky Cushions is comfortably the most exciting cluster pays slot we’ve developed so far and we think players are going to love settling in for a session where multiple prizes are available on each and every spin.
“Featuring an expanded 8×8 gameboard, second-chance wins and a pair of rewarding in-reel bonus features, Lucky Cushions is an innovative addition to our line-up that’s perfectly optimised for mobile devices, making it’s a must-have title for all online operators who offer Boldplay slots.”
