Active esports players and luxury guests are scheduled to appear.
Boat Race Mikuni, Boat Race Biwako, Boat Race Suminoe, and Boat Race Amagasaki (hereinafter referred to as Boat Race Kinki 4) will hold their first esports collaboration event.
Boat Race Kinki 4 will sponsor the tournament “RAGE Shadowverse 2022 Spring” of the competitive online TCG, “Shadowverse”, scheduled to begin January 14th.
In addition, a user-participation exchange event featuring players from the professional esports team “GxG”, who participate in the Shadowverse Pro League, will be held from February to March 2022 at a boat race track in the Kinki area. At the event, we will develop content that can be enjoyed by Shadowverse users who are not familiar with boat racing. These efforts include hosting game battles in which active esports players participate, as well as boat racing experiences with former boat racers.
In addition, we will hold a visitor lottery and social media campaigns where participants can win luxurious prizes and original goods.
