The first MCV Industry Pub Quiz, sponsored by Xbox 360, will take place on Wednesday May 30th, featuring publishers, retailers, media… and big prizes.

At the swanky setting of London’s AKA Bar, Holborn, the MCV Industry Pub Quiz is open to 20 teams of up to five and will see the official crowning of the games market’s brainiest team.

As well as the massive prestige that goes with the title, the winners will also get a bumper pack of prizes from main sponsor Microsoft – whilst there will be spot prizes on offer courtesy of various round sponsors, including Activision, Nindie.com, Gem, Vivendi Games and Ubisoft.

“The MCV Pub Quiz will be a cracking night of fun and competition, with friends from all sectors getting together for some serious socialising and deadly serious trivia,” MCV publisher Stuart Dinsey said.

Microsoft’s head of entertainment and gaming Stephen McGill added: “We’re very happy to join MCV in hosting the first Industry Pub Quiz. It will be a great evening, with some top prizes on offer but, more importantly, the title of Industry Quiz Champions will be up for grabs for the first time.”
