The H1Z1 Pro League (H1PL) is the first professional battle royale esports league created in which 15 charter teams featuring 75 of the best players in the world will compete every week for an entire season beginning April 21, 2018.
Redefining the current esports model, H1PL is the first professional esports league established as a partnership between a game publisher and an independent league operator – Daybreak Game Company and Twin Galaxies, LLC. The goal with H1PL is to take the leap from Esports 1.0 to 2.0 by establishing a first-of-its-kind league in which everyone – the fans, players, teams, and partners – participate in its success, explained Jace Hall, Co-Chairman of Twin Galaxies.
H1Z1 is a fast-paced and highly competitive battle royale shooter game, and Caesars Entertainment Studios in Las Vegas, NV is proud to be the official venue of the H1Z1 Pro League.
The H1Z1 Pro League is proud to partner with @CaesarsEnt to bring the first battle royale league to fans live on @Facebook and in-person from Las Vegas, kicking off on April 21, 2018!

“The combination of an intimate venue, like Caesars Entertainment Studios, and a jaw-dropping production set will deliver a unique experience for anyone who wants to see what competitive gaming is all about. This partnership further solidifies our commitment to esports and builds on our strategy to be at the cutting edge in all forms of interactive entertainment,” said Christian Stuart, Caesars Entertainment Executive Vice President of Gaming and Interactive Entertainment.
Having already hosted other exciting esports competitions such as the Gears Pro Circuit™ Las Vegas Open this past June, Caesars Entertainment Studios and the city of Las Vegas is perfect for what could be “the largest esports stage in the history of esports.”
“The H1Z1 Pro League will bring together the best players in the world to compete in the adrenaline-filled spectacle that is H1Z1, and we can think of no other city that matches the energy and excitement of battle royale than Las Vegas,” said Mark Tuttle, Director of Esports at Daybreak Games.
