Based on the amount of
8-bit games being played on the
GameReplays Ladder, it is safe to say that we are all back in love with 8-bit again! To celebrate the huge increase in multiplayer activity, we would like to announce our very first
8-BIT LADDERWARS!

Prize
Each player gets a
Tournament Participation Award 
for participating in the tournament. The winner will also receive a lovely
Tournament Winner Award
