By Neha Rastogi July 13, 2017

VR Challenger League- the first competitive VR esports event- has finally kicked off. The league was officially announced last month by Intel, Oculus, and ESL during the E3. And now Intel has made an official declaration that the first brackets of the gaming series are now open online. 
 
The whole league will take place online at some key events with participants from all around the world. As of now, “The Unspoken” from Insomniac Games and “Echo Arena” from Ready At Dawn Studios” are open to teams across North America and Europe. As per the official claims, Echo Arena is one of the best VR games that have been tested. It will be released on Oculus Rift alongside Lone Echo on July 20th. 
 
A cash prize of more than $200K has been fixed for the Summer of Rift’s esports blowout throughout the league. Intel will be hosting the finals culminating at the 2018 Intel Extreme Masters, which is currently the longest-running global pro gaming circuit.
