This is the first Africa Community Cup, with more to come in the future. Since it is an online invitational event, we might only see invited teams participate. Details on the particulars, including if the event will be streamed, is still unknown at the time of writing.

We do know, however, that the first event features teams and players from four countries, namely:

  • Zimbabwe
  • Ghana
  • Nigeria
  • Zambia

While the first event doesn’t include South Africa, we hope to see the event expand to our local shores sometime in the future. Regardless, it is always great to see esports grow and new initiatives take place on the continent.
