APAC Predator League 2020 to be postponed to 2021

As previously announced, the Asia Pacific (APAC) Predator League 2020 will be postponed, to spring 2021 in the Philippines due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The health and safety of the gaming community remains Acer’s primary concern, with the company working closely with public health authorities and their advisories.

The same qualifying teams from the local preliminary competitions will attend the finale in Spring 2021, and the event has been renamed as Predator League 2020/2021 with a prize pool of US$400,000.

“The postponement of the Asia Pacific Predator League, instead of a cancellation, demonstrates Acer’s commitment to the gaming community.”

“With the ongoing Covid-19 situation, we made the decision to move the competition to Spring 2021 for the safety and best interests of the tournament’s competitors, fans, spectators and staff.”
