The ‘NAVINATION Hub’ subscription service will enable players based in the CIS region to compete and win a variety of prizes alongside the opportunity to be noticed by NAVI’s talent scouts. The leagues will be using FACEIT’s servers and anti-cheat to ensure a level playing field is maintained.
Cristian Duca, Senior Partnerships Manager at FACEIT, spoke on the partnership in a release: “Our partnership with NAVI is a perfect example of how organisations can use FACEIT tools to create bespoke experiences for their communities, increase fan engagement, and find new ways to scout the next generation of talent for their teams.
“Partnering with and supporting esports organisations is core within our mission, being esports organisations is a key element for the whole ecosystem and we are particularly proud to enter into an official partnership with NAVI, an internationally renowned brand with one of the most impressive legacies in esports.”
