This year, the professionals from SMITE will compete at the Hi-Rez Expo. There will also be some matches with big prize money for Paladins.
Hi-Rez, the developers of SMITE and Paladins: Champions of the Realm, are organizing a fair again in 2017, where the professionals of the eSports scene will mainly gather. At the Hi-Rez Expo (or HRX, as the cool kids say), the final games of SMITE and Paladins will take place (with some juicy prize money). The participants on-site will also have the opportunity to experience the developers of their games up close.
