About World Cyber Games 2019 Xi'an جشنواره ورزش‌های الکترونیک
مسابقات جهانی سایبر ۲۰۱۹ شیان یک جشنواره ورزش‌های الکترونیک است که طی چهار روز در یک مرکز نمایشگاهی در شهر شیان چین برگزار شد. این رویداد ۳۰,۰۰۰ متر مربع مساحت را دربر می‌گرفت و ۵۰۴ ورزشکار از ۳۳ کشور را گرد هم آورد. طراحی بر اساس فرم مکعبی لوگوی رویداد شکل گرفته است. نقاط، لبه‌ها و وجوه مکعب در صحنه، تابلوهای راهنما و محصولات جانبی به کار گرفته شدند. مکعبی که بر یکی از لبه‌های خود تعادل یافته بود، به‌عنوان یک بنای یادبود LED در میدان مرکزی ساخته شد. مسیرها، صحنه‌ها و امکانات به‌گونه‌ای برنامه‌ریزی شدند که جریان حرکت بازدیدکنندگان را هدایت کنند. برنامه شامل یک تورنمنت، مراسم افتتاحیه، جشنواره موسیقی و رویداد کاسپلی بود.

- Unique Properties
- For the WCG 2019, the main focus was consistent communication. Due to a 6 year absence, there were many challenges to overcome. To absolve these, we overhauled all wording related to design across various forms of documentation, from brand identity to event design, even operations. Consistent communication was required since WCG had evolved from being simply an esports tournament and had grown into an event that offered user engagement programs, a music festival, and conferences.

- Production Technology
- In production, we focused on effectiveness. All parts of the event space, including pathways, stages, facilities, and others, were planned out to create optimum flow throughout the event. Throughout the construction and application of structures and platforms, banner printing, and more, we maximized efficiency in costs and operations, sticking to the strategy of ‘Choice and Focus’ to maximize detail depending on location, applying the most detail to spaces that received the most attention.
- Design Challenge
- The return of WCG was the most difficult hurdle for us to overcome in this project. In the esports industry, change comes fast, in an ever-cycling world of tournaments and trends. Gamers were only familiar with the old, outdated style of previous events. Our greatest task was introducing a new WCG to viewers without erasing the fond memories of older fans. So we presented a show match, starring veteran players from previous WCG tournaments, while introducing new programs and designs.
- Research
- To ensure enjoyment, we conducted research, visiting the site location, interviewing gamers, running simulations and other methods to gather as much data as we could. Our conclusion was that we would have to provide communication design that consistently conveyed that this was a WCG that was here to stay. Consistency was defined by the WCG logo, the ‘cube’. After interpreting its shape multi-dimensionally, it was applied through various communication items like pamphlets and merchandise.
- Inspiration
- WCG 2019 Xi’an’s design’s biggest motif was the WCG logo, the ‘cube’. Our design team interpreted the aspects of the cube, its points, edges, faces, and outline, throughout design application. For example, to illustrate progress and opposition on our stage, the cube’s intersecting edges were used, and to signify harmony, the cube itself was balanced on one edge at the center of the main plaza as a LED monument.
- Project Duration
- January 2019 kicked off the tournament. The venue was already established at Xi’an, China’s “Xi’an Quijang International Conference & Exhibition Center”. That meant there were 7 months to plan out in detail the space design, communication design, event operations planning and more before the finals in July. The event took place from July 18th to 21st, 2019 over the course of 4 days.
- Operation Flow
- The World Cyber Games are the world’s first game Olympics who left the tournament scene 6 years ago. The goal now was to provide a Grand Finals that global fans with 504 athletes from 33 different countries could enjoy. Operations included managing the tournament for the 4 day event, user programs, and management of the Players Lounge for optimal communication and coordination of the athletes. Over the course of 4 days, there was also an EDM festival, an opening ceremony, and a Cosplay program.
