The Grand Final was held on the 20th of March in Karachi at Ramada plaza. Last year, Free Fire had announced Pakistan’s first-ever Esports Scholarship, under their Campus Challenge competition, which took place across 9 different universities in Pakistan.

The winning team receiving PKR 700,000 was from City University Peshawar, with the team from Comstats following up.

The winning teams went on to represent their University on the National Stage where they compete for a scholarship worth up to PKR 700,000 each. The Grand Final event mesmerized spectators with an incredible light show and performance featuring the famous Young Stunners.

Commenting on the occasion, Zafeer Khan, Esport & Community Manager said, “I’m glad to see FFCC garner such a great response at these Universities. These grass root efforts provide us extreme motivation when we’re able to see the passion students have for Esports in Pakistan first hand. We saw this during the overwhelming response from our Campus Challenge and how much these Scholarship opportunities really meant to these Students. We’re here to stay- our community is growing everyday, the future for Esports in Pakistan is bright”
