Hello, Codeforces!
We are excited to announce the second Cambridge Battlecode event this year with £15,000 in prizes!
Cambridge Battlecode is a 4 week long programming competition, where players compete to write autonomous bots that battle head to head in a strategy game.
This time we are trying something new and have taken inspiration from MOBAs such as League of Legends, Dota 2 and Heroes of the Storm and are planning to release with 12 unique champions! We've revealed 7 of them so far with more to come over the upcoming weeks!
The competition kicks off in under a month, on the 12th of October, and will run across three weekly sprints, culminating in our in-person finals on the 18th of November. Finalists will also have the opportunity for an office visit at HRT for recruitment and networking, with flights and 4 days of accommodation fully covered by us!
We're also incredibly grateful to the sponsors supporting us this year as this event would not be possible without them:
- Platinum: HRT
- Gold: Citadel and Citadel Securities, G-Research, Jane Street and QRT
- Silver: QuantCo
- Bronze: Anthropic and Pareto
Registrations are now live! You can sign up and find out more on our website:
As well as on our discord server: https://discord.gg/KaNZWaHtxX
To add, we are supporting C++, Python, Rust, OCaml and Kotlin this year!
We're really excited for what we've got planned, please do spread the word, and we hope to see you competing!
