The event was open to gamers of all ages and featured a number of exciting e-sports tournaments, including the regional finals for both Warcraft III Battle.net Season 5 and the first season of World of Warcraft's Arena Tournament. Invitational StarCraft and Warcraft III tournaments will also pit some of Korea's finest players against tough international challengers.

"With a wide variety of themed activities and competitions, the Blizzard Worldwide Invitationals were a great way for us to show our appreciation to our players," said Mike Morhaime, president and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We're looking forward to creating another memorable show for them this year as well."

Outside of the e-sports realm, unique panel discussions were held by Blizzard Developers on various topics, and several hands-on attractions.
