Predator, NVIDIA and PC Gamer teamed up for the fourth straight year to host the Predator Gaming After Party at PAX East 2019. PAX VIPs, press and partiers all left the PAX convention center behind for the House of Blues Boston and a Friday night filled with esports matches, music, cosplay, dancing and multiplayer games on the latest Predator rigs.
Once the rest of the eager crowd entered the club, many attendees lined up to live out their esports fantasies, live on stage. Regular Joe gamers played against pro members of Team Envy in 4x4 matches commentated by MC Bil “Jump” Carter. Winners walked away with the pride of winning an “official” esports match against real pros - and with a Predator-branded hat for their trophy.
The rest of the party goers crowded around the Predator demo pods for more casual gameplay action. On laptops and PCs like the Orion 9000, Nitro 5, Triton 700 and Helios 500, guests could play Fortnite, PUBG, Rocket League, Gears of War 4 and other demos on the club floor.
Meanwhile, partiers looking for a fun, chill night off from gaming could simply enjoy drinks on the dance floor, expert cosplay from host VickyBunnyAngel, and music from house DJ MissNinja. And after the esports matches ended, the stage was cleared for a headline performance from beloved EDM DJs Pegboard Nerds.
If you plan on attending PAX next year, or you’re just a Boston native who likes gaming and winning free stuff, we recommend you stay tuned for details on Predator’s fifth-annual gaming extravaganza in 2020!
