The one-day competition will take place on 25 April 2026, bringing together teams from around the world to compete remotely in Apex Legends, a fast-paced, team-based battle royale game.
Following its successful launch in 2025, Incap Legends returns as part of the company’s continued efforts to engage the next generation of talent and create new connections between education and industry. The tournament combines competitive gaming with skills that are highly relevant in engineering and electronics, including teamwork, strategic thinking, and fast decision-making.

Esports offers a natural environment to develop skills that are directly applicable in technology and engineering. I’ll be joining again this year, so I’m looking forward to seeing how the competition has developed and whether I’ve managed to keep up.”
The tournament is organised in collaboration with Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group (NSCG), a leading general further education college in Staffordshire, known for its strong esports programme, experienced specialists, and state-of-the-art facilities.
