Not only did Gamescom feature a stunning announcement of a $1,000,000 Halo 5 tournament called the "Halo World Championship", it was also the location of the first invitational and pre-launch event for the game.
Today at Gamescom it was announced that the next step in the Halo Championship Series, a league that has run since the launch of the Master Chief Collection, would take the form of a new tournament known as The Halo World Championship.

Although not in an official capacity Rivals of Aether, the new Smash-esque fighting game, was present at Evolution 2015. The tournament was rather small, but what can you expect from a game that still hasn't even been fully released?
This weekend, from July 24th to July 26th, we'll see the end of the second season of the Halo Championship Season. It will also most likely be the last we'll see of Halo 2 Anniversary, although you can never know for sure.
Earlier today Valve, the developer of many extremely popular online games such as DotA 2 and Counter Strike, released their breakdown of how they intend to distribute the prize pool for their annual DotA tournament, The International.
