Britain's Prince William played in an e-sports tournament in Riyadh as part of the second day of his trip to Saudi Arabia.

He was joined by the Chairman of the Saudi Esports Federation and the Arab Esports Federation, Prince Faisal bin Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud, at the Saudi Esports Federation SEF Arena.

The visit comes at the request of the UK government as it seeks to strengthen relations with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

During his trip, Prince William also met young footballers in the Saudi capital.
