Daejeon City announced that it will host the "Eternal Return Masters Season 4 Finals" at the Daejeon Esports Stadium in conjunction with the 0si Festival from August 9 to 10.


"Eternal Return," serviced by Kakao Games, is a Korean game that has ranked first in popularity in the Korea region on the global game distribution platform Steam. Daejeon City secured the entire season of the regular league this past February.


This tournament will be held as a "Daejeon 0si Festival Special Tournament" through a partnership between Nimble Neuron, the developer of "Eternal Return," and Daejeon City. During the tournament, 0si Festival promotional banners will be displayed within the game screen to promote Daejeon City, and a cheerful event will be held for spectators to support Daejeon City.


Additionally, to make it easier for esports fans to enjoy the 0si Festival, a shuttle bus will operate between the esports stadium and the festival site. Nimble Neuron will also run an experience booth at the 0si Festival venue to promote "Eternal Return."


During the tournament period, Daejeon City will sign a business agreement with Nimble Neuron to jointly cooperate in revitalizing esports in Daejeon and building the image of "Daejeon, the Mecca of Korean Esports." The agreement includes the exclusive hosting of the finals of the region-based league "Eternal Return National League" and the regular tournament "Eternal Return Masters" finals in Daejeon for the next five years, a first for domestic esports.


Daejeon Mayor Lee Jangwoo said, "To vitalize the esports industry, we will actively foster and develop region-based esports so that they can grow into global tournaments like the LCK."


Meanwhile, in December, the "Eternal Return Masters Season 5 Finals" and the "Eternal Return National League Finals," the first region-based club league finals in Korea, will be held at the Daejeon Esports Stadium.
