“We’re thrilled to once again work with Brian Knapp and the amazing team at Ventrilo to give the world’s most passionate gamers their chance to win $30,000 in prizes,” said Tim Willits, studio director at id Software. “It is the passion of the gaming community that continually sets QuakeCon apart, and we’re excited to be able to give back to the fans who make this event possible year after year.”

“We’re excited to have the opportunity to show our appreciation to the gaming community that helped make Ventrilo what we are today,” said Brian Knapp, president of Flagship Industries. “The Ventrilo team is honored to once again return as a QuakeCon sponsor, and offer fans the chance to win this year’s Ultimate Power Up prizes.”

The “Ultimate Power Up” winners will be randomly selected on Saturday, July 19, as part of the QuakeCon tournament finals event on the Ventrilo Main Stage. A total of 100 coveted tickets will be awarded to attendees throughout each day of the show through QuakeCon contests, random drawings, and other events.
