What is eSports?

Some of you might have an ambiguity; what is eSports?

The eSports is a modified form of sport competition using video games. There are appropriately organized teams in eSports, and the teams compete with each other. Most of the time, they compete in such games that we play in our homes.

However, the craze and charm of eSports have made it a brand sport, and its players are also no less than that of any celebrity as they have a huge fan base. What is more, YouTube and Twitch have been the leading platform in promoting eSports as a brand.

Meanwhile, if we talk about the scope of eSports, you will be stunned to know that only in 2018, more than 350 million people watched eSports either online or in-person. This rapidly emerging popularity of eSports has made stakeholders arrange eSports tournaments and events on the scale similar to the other traditional games.

On the other hand, revenues associated with eSports have also increased now, as it has become a brand. Now people pay for their ads, and spectators buy tickets to watch the tournaments.

In short, eSports has gained ground as a profitable business.
