Competitive video gaming is a rapidly expanding global phenomenon with millions of followers and billions of dollars on the line. Casual gamers have been transformed into earnest stars, with seven-figure wages and enormous corporate sponsorships thanks to streaming services and live events.
Esports is entering the sports scene faster than you think. The game "Valorant" peaked at 16.6 Million viewers during the broadcast. That is on par with the NFL with an Average of 16.9 million viewers last year. We can definitely expect Esports to become one of the top things as the year goes on. The more people who watch will appreciate the pro players skills and respect this category of this sport.
It's cool to see college are introducing Esports too and a whole other playing field to video games as a whole. It brings a lot more variety in college sports and allows more people to participate in sports. It also introduces more sponsor ideas as you can see Mercedes hopped on the trend with the picture above.
