Cancun, Mexico – Nordic Partners Gaming (NPG) will bring Counter-Strike 2 action to the Esports Zone at AffPapa Conference Cancun 2026, where attendees can play against Lukas “FreeZe” Hegmann.
FreeZe has years of professional Counter-Strike experience, having represented teams including BIG, BIG Academy, and ALTERNATE aTTaX. FreeZe brings extensive Counter-Strike experience to the Esports Zone, with nearly 8,000 matches played and a 57% career win rate. At the conference, he will take part in NPG’s Esports Zone activation, giving visitors the opportunity to sit down at the gaming setup and test their own CS2 skills against an experienced competitive player.
The activation is designed to make esports a hands-on part of the conference rather than something attendees simply watch. Throughout the event, visitors can challenge FreeZe directly, experience competitive Counter-Strike from the player’s seat, and interact with NPG at the Esports Zone.
“We want people to experience esports, not just hear about it. Bringing FreeZe to AffPapa Cancun gives attendees a chance to get behind the screen, challenge a professional player and see the competitive side of Counter-Strike for themselves. It’s also a great way to bring the esports and iGaming communities closer together.”
NPG will also run a jersey giveaway as part of the activation, giving participating attendees the chance to win an official Nordic Partners Gaming jersey.
The Esports Zone forms part of NPG’s presence at AffPapa Conference Cancun 2026 and follows Nordic Partners Gaming’s expansion into competitive esports this year.
AffPapa Conference Cancun 2026 will take place from 23–25 November in Cancun, Mexico.
