Team House of Blood, the winner of Free Fire Pakistan League III, the highest-level ESports tournament in Pakistan, landed a spot in the play-ins for FFWS 2022. Faiq Ahmed, the Head of Media and Production at NGES, was officially invited to attend World Series as a representative from NGES and coordinate the media representation and photoshoots for Team House of Blood.
NGES was also in charge of broadcasting the event for the Pakistani viewership on Youtube and other social platforms and also organized the match screenings at multiple locations across Pakistan for the local fan base. A huge crowd from the gaming community showed up to support House of Blood.

This was the first time a Pakistani team represented the country on an international platform, making it a breakthrough for the ESports ecosystem in Pakistan. Unfortunately, due to a lack of experience, the Pakistani ESports team couldn’t make it to the finals and got eliminated in the playoffs. The FFPL winner brought home a prize money of 8 million PKR.
