On May 15, the gaming bar and club Pixel Bar was burgled at its Manchester venue, with the intruders taking nine of their gaming PC rigs from their downstairs PC Gaming Arena.
The team, who also have a venue in Leeds, shared the news on social media and revealed that they won't be able to host any of their esports events until further notice.
While Pixel Bar Manchester has been forced to dramatically increase its security to ensure this doesn't happen again, it's likely to make a pretty big loss from this burglary.
The video shared on the Twitter account shows brief glimpses of the perpetrators, and the team has shared with us the police reference number that you should contact if you know anything that could help.
