This weekend sees the second XP Cup in our first season of Mortal Kombat action. We've already revealed the R30,000 cash prize pool, a trip overseas,and our LAN final venue partner. Today we are pleased to announce that thanks to local distributor Apex Interactive, both Razer and Turtle Beach have jumped on board.

A variety of products from the two brands will be up for grabs across both the online cups and to the winners at the LAN finale at the Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott. Razer and Turtle Beach will also assist with headsets and other peripherals for the event on 27 July. Players will be able to qualify for the LAN finale via the online cups or via the open bracket on the day. Additional details will follow on ticket pricing and how to register, but for now get competing online and secure a spot that way.

Razer and Turtle Beach will be sponsoring the following prizes for the online tournaments and LAN finale:
