Hyundai Motor Company is expanding its high-performance N brand into the mobile eSports arena through a collaboration with the mobile racing game 'Racing Master'. The company will host the 'Hyundai N x Racing Master Cup' offline finals on September 19 at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) in Seoul.
The competition is part of the 'Game eSports Seoul (GES)' event hosted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government.
