Mobile esports tournament, Jamir All Star to take place this weekend
GTarcade, the publisher of popular mobile RPG game Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac, are announcing the return of their 2-day invitational online mobile esports event, the Jamir All Star, that will take place between April 10th and 11th in partnership with Huawei.
In this highly competitive tournament, eight of the world’s best Saint Seiya Awakening PvP players from Europe and Americas will go head to head for a prize of $10,000. The turn-based game that takes inspiration from the popular manga series Saint Seiya has proved extremely popular since its release in 2019 with over 30 million downloads worldwide. Last year’s first Jamir Championship Final livestream saw 350,000 viewers across all streaming platforms.
In Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac, players can relive the epic saga of the manga series and play as their favourite characters called Saints. Every character from the series brings unique skills to the table and a player’s strategy is extremely important when deciding the outcome of a battle against another player. The game has found great popularity in Europe and Latin America and there is a strong PvP community of Saint Seiya Awakening players that hone their strategic skills to compete in top tournaments.
The Jamir All Star, themed Road to Master, will bring together the strongest PvP players for a chance to earn the title of the world’s best Saint Seiya Awakening: KotZ player. Seven matches will be livestreamed in 4 languages, English, French, Spanish and Portuguese, across Facebook, YouTube and Nimo TV. The lineup also features some unseen encounters between highly popular players from Server E (Europe) and Server A (Americas).
The Jamir All Star will also kick off a larger Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac 2021 esports program. To support existing champions as well as up and coming players, official training camps for esports commentators and players will be available later this year, with more details to be disclosed in fall 2021.
Event schedule:
- Server E Time (GMT+1): Starts at 18:00 on April 10th & 11th
- Server A Time (GMT-5): Starts at 12:00 on April 10th & 11th
Supporting this event will be Huawei, who will be sponsoring giveaways during the streaming. Electronic products including smart phones, smart watches and earbuds totaling $20,000 will be given away when the number of concurrent viewers reaches certain milestones. There will also be a number of exciting reveals and announcements for other GTarcade games arriving in 2021.

Iveda, a global leader in AI-driven video surveillance and smart-city technologies, announced that Subic Sun Development Inc. has chosen the IvedaAI platform as the video surveillance solution for the soon-to-open Subic Sun Resort, Convention & Casino. IvedaAI was selected early in the build-out to inform camera placement and ensure frictionless integration with future-ready, AI-powered analytics. Located on the former U.S. naval base in the Subic Bay Freeport Zone—a special economic hub that hosts thousands of international and local businesses—the resort will feature 500 guest rooms, a state-of-the-art convention center, a luxury casino and two Accor-brand hotels, Ibis Styles and Mercure, scheduled to open in December 2025.
The decision comes as global resort operators sharpen their focus on safety, service and operational efficiency. The global resort market generated $347 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach nearly $945 billion by 2030, an 18.5% CAGR. IvedaAI’s AI-enabled video analytics will help property staff lower security costs, respond to incidents faster and unlock data-driven insights that boost both guest satisfaction and bottom-line performance.
“Iveda being selected as a premier security and surveillance provider before the first Subic Sun Resort guest ever checks in is a powerful endorsement of our commitment to providing state-of- the-art monitoring technology. By designing camera layouts around IvedaAI’s real-time analytics, Subic Sun can optimize coverage, reduce blind spots, and deliver safer, smoother guest experiences—without a costly equipment overhaul. We expect more ground-up projects to follow this blueprint,” said David Ly, CEO and Founder of Iveda.
Iveda Philippines—Iveda’s joint venture focused on nationwide smart-city deployment—secured the Subic Sun contract and will oversee the on-site rollout. The win represents the team’s first major hospitality project and advances its plan to generate US $3 million in smart-city revenue by FY 2026, building on the broader initiative it announced last year.
