CGNY will bring their vast array of gaming technologies and tournament infrastructure to the ACE Gaming Zone that will host an exciting selection of competitive tournaments throughout the weekend featuring top games such as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Mario Kart 8, Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite and Rocket League. Attendees will also have the opportunity to play Beat Saber using the Oculus Quest for an immersive VR experience. Prizes and raffle items will be available throughout the weekend.

"CGNY has built an incredible reputation as a fun and inclusive environment for gamers to come together and compete," says Stephen Shamus, ACE Universe President. "At ACE, we are committed to giving fans top-notch experiences and memorable weekends. CGNY is going to give gamers and attendees just that through their wide selection of tournaments and events."

GA tickets also provide access to ACE Comic Con Midwest's star-studded roster of celebrity guest panels, featuring the biggest names from Marvel Studios, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina as well as 60+ world-renowned comic book writers & artists, 125+ hand-picked vendors & exhibitors, three full days of live panel programming and free children's activities.
