The event will also see the presentation of the Community of the Year award and, for the first time, the MVP title for the Valorant final.
The Uniliga Finals will be the first major esports event to be held at the new Xperion Hamburg, which is the largest venue of its kind in Germany at 3,500 square metres.

The Uniliga is the largest university esports league in Germany and a project of the start-up company UNI E-Sports GmbH, which was originally founded by students. The Uniliga currently has more than 4,000 active players in over 600 teams at around 200 locations. This makes it a stepping stone for tomorrow's esports professionals and the foundation for amateur esports throughout Germany.
