ABOUT WAR OF AWARDS:
"War of Awards" is a campaign and event designed to engage the entire gaming population in the otherwise elite horse race of video game awards season.

Tentative time and location is 7:30pm in the Bobcat Theatre (changed from Dragonfly).
War of Awards will be carried on the official PAX East 2019 live stream. Season updates will be announced on Discord below.
