SINGAPORE, 3 October 2024 – After a five-year hiatus, Campus Game Fest (CGF) 2024 returns bigger and better, re-establishing itself as Singapore’s premier community gaming festival in Southeast Asia. From 26-27 October 2024, 10 AM to 9 PM, CGF will take over ITE College Central, offering two days of non-stop excitement for gaming enthusiasts and creatives alike.
The Campus Game Fest, along with its associated events, aims to highlight the importance of esports education, with a focus on regional expansion and national recognition. In collaboration with various educational institutions and community associations, these initiatives help build a sustainable esports ecosystem that nurtures students’ interests, unlocks their talent and provides access to educational opportunities.
With esports rapidly growing in the ASEAN region, Campus Game Fest serves as a key platform for regional talent to shine. The Asia Pacific Predator League will feature the Singapore Qualifier with a S$10,000 prize pool, while the Campus Legends Invitational: Southeast Asia’s best collegiate teams, represent their college and their country, compete for the highest honor and glory in Street Fighter 6 and Mobile Legends.
The Mobile Legends: Bang Bang tournament will also see champions from six Southeast Asian nations competing for national pride. As a highlight, Tencent will host a live watch party for the Honor of Kings Community Day, uniting fans for a unique viewing experience at CGF.

Predator Gaming is dedicated to empowering the next generation of gamers and fostering a vibrant, competitive community. We look forward to witnessing the intense competition and camaraderie that CGF is known for.”
Dennis Ooi, President of SCOGA and Co-Chairman of Campus Game Fest: “Campus Game Fest has always been more than just a celebration of gaming; it’s a platform where students can immerse themselves in the world of esports, media production and content creation. By involving students in different areas of the event, we’re fostering hands-on learning experiences beyond traditional education.”
