Intel UK and UK-based community gaming and esports organization EPIC.LAN announced on Monday that they will be working together for another year.

Financial terms of this renewed partnership were not disclosed.

For the fifth consecutive year of collaboration, Intel will continue to work with EPIC.LAN to be a key partner to promote grassroots gaming and esports in the region through sponsorships, giveaways, activations and more.

As part of the renewed partnership, Intel will serve as the lead partner for EPIC.LAN’s three planned flagship events in 2025 at Kettering Leisure Village, offering participants and fans activations, hands-on demonstrations of Intel technology, community tournaments and prize draws. Intel will continue to support unique activations such as the Intel Community Championship Belt, which gives fans of all skill levels the opportunity to compete in various games, earn points and have a chance to be crowned the ultimate champion.

“We have all seen the challenges the events industry has faced in recent yearssaid Jon Winkle, Managing Director of EPIC.LAN. “One of the reasons EPIC.LAN has been able to continue offering world-class gaming events is the strength of its partnerships and the way these partners understand our community-first approach. As we enter our fifth year of collaboration with Intel, it is clear that they fully understand the importance of supporting these grassroots gaming and esports communities with us, and we look forward to another year of strong collaboration.”

EPIC.LAN’s EPIC44 will take place February 20-23 at the Kettering Conference Center. For further details and ticket information visit www.epiclan.co.uk.
