A Friendlier Place To Play!

At GamePad we highlight the fun, team-based spectacle of esports. It’s not about destroying the competition or being the absolute best at any game. This is the game show for players and makers alike, so bring your team and a positive attitude to make it a great experience for all!

The spring Friendly Fire competition will take place at GamePad Online on Saturday 9th April 2022. The three games are as follows:

Round 1: Brawlhalla
Round 2: Rocket League
Round 3: Knockout City

Teams will compete on a 2 v 2 best out of 3 in each round. If you would like to submit a team (minimum of 2, maximum of 4 players) to be considered for the event, please take some time to read through the competition guidelines and register your interest today.

Please note: Submitting a team does not guarantee entry but allows us to review your application before confirming you for the next event. We will then make the final selection and we reserve the right to deny entry to any teams at our discretion. If you have any question, suggestions or concerns, please get in touch with us ASAP, we’re here to help!

Win Fantastic Prizes

Prizes are on offer for all teams, you just have to play for them! For starters, we will provide teams with copies of the games that aren’t already free to play. This will let you take part in the competition and enjoy some new games after the event is done.

For each match you win against another team, you will get to choose a gift card prize. That means a choice of Steam, PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo gift cards.

An example: If you win one match in Rocket League and one in Brawlhalla, you will still get TWO gift card picks even if you don’t have the most wins overall.

The team with the most wins after all games have been played will be crowned Friendly Fire Champions! In addition to your gift card prizes, each member of your team will be sent a winners medal and a copy of the latest mayamada manga.

Keep an eye on event announcements for news on more prizes from Gamepad Online supporters and sponsors.

If your team is selected for the Friendly Fire competition, you will receive two copies of Swimsanity. Brawlhalla and Rocket League are both free to play games and all Friendly Fire competition games are cross-platform.
