Amazon is celebrating Prime Day next month in a rather big way, as the company is putting on a headliner in Las Vegas: The Ultimate Crown tournament will see two celebrity heavyweights, MrBeast and Ninja, go head to head at the HyperX Arena in a League of Legends tournament.
The tournament will be hosted live in Las Vegas at the HyperX Arena at the Luxor on the Vegas Strip. The event, which will be held on July 9th at 4pm Pacific/7pm Eastern, will also be streamed on Amazon's Crown channel on Twitch.
The event will see popular streamer Tyler "Ninja" Blevins go against YouTuber Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson in a head to head battle in League, aided by teams of "all-star" gamers. Who the teams are haven't been announced just yet.
The event will be streamed live on Amazon's official Crown channel, as well as simulcast on Amazon's video streaming app, Prime Video.
