6pm prize: Star Wars: Destiny

From 6pm you’ll be entered into a draw for a chance to win the Star Wars: Destiny tabletop card game. 

The PC Gamer Weekender features a heck of a lot of PC games (obviously), but there’s also plenty of table top gaming to be had as well, with a special area where you can kick back and play games such as Cortex Challenge, Age of Conan, Star Wars: Destiny, Potion Explosion, Ticket to Ride: Rails & Sails and Raise Your Goblets amongst others.

Fancy a beer while you play? Head over to the Fireside Bar for a refreshing drink (alcoholic or otherwise) while you play a few rounds of Hearthstone.

The PC Gamer Weekender is sponsored by Omen by HP, and is being held on February 18 and 19 at Olympia, London, in the UK. For more details see the event website, and follow on Twitter for up-to-the-minute news. Tickets are available now from £12.99.

In the past hours we’ve given away…

5pm prize: For Honor

At 5pm you could win a copy of For Honor, the action fighting game that everyone is talking about.

And, if you fancy a career in e-sports, then  head over to the Tournament Gaming area run by EGL and test yourself in a series of casual tournaments including the first For Honor competitive match up! 

Other games you’ll be able to play competitively include League of Legends, Hearthstone, Rocket League and Mirage: Arcane Warfare.
 

4pm prize: Asus Strix Claw optical gaming mouse

From 4pm you’ll be in with a chance of winning the amazing Asus Strix Claw gaming mouse. This ergonomically-designed mouse is ideal for first-person shooters and features a high precision 5000 DPI optical sensor that’s been specially tuned for gaming.

If you want to know how to optimise the gaming performance from your PC or learn how to build your own gaming rig, then the Maximum PC Workshops powered by Intel and Asus will be for you.

These sessions will range from the basics to choosing the right components for your machine. If you’ve got a PC building problem or query, then there’s a drop in clinic where you can go and ask the experts.

3pm prize: Resident Evil VII Biohazard and Resident Evil book

The new Resident Evil is an absolute blast and a fine return to form for Capcom’s seminal horror series, so if you’ve not had the chance to play it, then you’ll love this new prize draw. You get the game along with a tie-in art book as well.

While we’re still waiting to play Resident Evil VII in virtual reality on our PCs (the VR mode is currently exclusive to PSVR), you’ll be able to fill your boots with virtual reality-goodness at the PC Gamer Weekender and its VR Zone powered by the Alienware Aurora.

At the VR Zone you’ll see some of the best VR games such as Fantastic Contraption, Job Simulator, The Gallery (on HTC Vive), Myst, CosmoTrip, The American Dream and Raw Data. 

It will also feature the first European showcase of Knockout League as well as the chance to play Serious Sam VR on the Omen by HP stand.

2pm prize: Fallout 4 Messenger bag

Get a bit of Wasteland chic with this awesome Fallout 4 Messenger bag, the third prize draw from the PC Gamer Weekender Wednesday competition.

If you love Fallout 4 as much as us, then this is an awesome prize, letting you carry around your bottle caps, scrap metal and stimpaks in style.

The PC Gamer Weekender plays host to some of the world’s most talented developers working on some of the world’s biggest games including the likes of Overwatch, Total War: Warhammer, Project Cars 2, For Honor, Yooka Laylee and Star Citizen.

They’ll be speaking at the event over two stages, the PC Gamer Stage and the Developer Stage.
