A TREASURE chest in a secret location in Bournemouth will have prizes worth up to £1,000.
Residents across the town should keep their eyes peeled for clues this Sunday, November 5, to locate a chest featuring an array of gear from consoles and games to accessories and tech.
Part of an annual celebration for Game Day, four of the UK’s top gaming streamers Lewis Brindley, Pedguin, Geestar Games and BrionyKay will kickstart the treasure hunt live on Twitch this Sunday.
Once the coordinates are unveiled by organisers EE, gamers up and down the country will race against time to reach the chests and claim their contents.
Players who can’t make it in-person to the treasure hunt will have the chance to battle it out online for three digital chests during the livestream.
Christian Thrane, managing director of marketing at EE, said: “We are thrilled to launch our inaugural Game Day with a mixed reality gaming treasure hunt, bringing the excitement of video games to life for players all around the country.
“Whether online or in real-life, gamers can take part in this unforgettable experience and join the race for a chance to win some of the latest games and consoles.
“New EE is committed to providing our customers with the best gaming experience.
“Our first Game Day is open to everyone across the nation and is the next step in our journey to becoming the UK’s number one destination for gaming.”
