    Hi,

    Just a general question really. Every now and again I hear about various tournaments going on across PS4, XBOX, PC etc.

    How do you get into this?

    Is there one major body or is each game handled separately?

    Basically, can you signup to a service i.e. MLG, setup/link your profile and then choose the game you want to compete in?

    Depends entirely on what game you're playing.

    https://play.eslgaming.com/uk is the ESL who are probably the biggest multi-game organisation in Europe.

    Varies hugely dependent on which game you want to play- there's no real governing body.

    ESL as mentioned above cover quite a few though.

    Really you should look into whatever local community exists for your chosen one too and see what's going on there.

    Usually you'd have to get high in the rankings of your chosen game to get scouted. Then you'll get invited to try out for a team.
