Will Creolophus win his fourth consecutive The Gathering tournament win? On April 4th the 15-year-old event kicks off.




This man has won The Gathering three times in a row. Time for the fourth?
The 15-year-old LAN party The Gathering will in about a month open up their doors at Vikingaskipet Olymic Arena in Norway. Last year a total of 5500 visitors attended the event which makes it the second largest LAN party in the world, losing only to the Swedish DreamHack LAN.
