1000 new communities a day from 300+ games are adopting the platform, making game.tv the hangout place for amateur gamers

game.tv mobile app, launched just six months ago, is scaling rapidly to become the world’s #1 mobile eSports platform. In this short span of time, it has clocked 11 million tournament registrations, and now hosts one tournament every minute! It has very quickly become the go-to place for amateur gamers to play and sharpen their gaming skills through community-driven participation, backed by gaming vloggers, influencers, and huge prize pools.

game.tv hosts tournaments across hundreds of communities worldwide for an impressive 300+ top game titles such as Garena Free Fire, Brawl Stars, Clash Royale, and Call of Duty Mobile. They also host unique women-only weekly tournaments like Free Fire Diva Scrim Wars, to support emerging female players in the gaming and eSports space.

Aside from being able to compete in community (guild)-based tournaments for top game titles, gamers utilize the platform to become a part game.tv’s rapidly expanding network of 100,000 guilds, connect and interact with teammates via text and voice chats, enjoy video content from professional gamers and top influencers, and win amazing rewards from huge prize pools.

“This is an extremely exciting time for the eSports industry. The number of new people playing games has vastly increased, and so has the time that they spend gaming each day. A lot of players are amateur gamers with no guidance on sharpening their skills in eSports. Through our platform, we can support them by creating a path to pro for mobile eSports while fostering a grassroots community,” said Rosen Sharma, CEO game.tv.

“By partnering with game.tv, we give opportunities to many young gamers to start their journey with a mentor every step of the way. The live stream tournaments have seen high engagements from amateur gaming audiences. We hope to welcome many such young and ambitious players into our community,” said Ritik Jain, YouTuber and Founder of Two-Side Gamers.

game.tv is powered by an AI-based eSports assistant, ‘Tourney’, that can effortlessly run automated tournaments from start to finish. The eSports assistant helps communities, streamers, and content creators to create community tournaments. Large game developers are integrating with Tourney to help create vibrant communities around their game.

“Mobile eSports is fast evolving where the focus has shifted from a few big tournaments to organising thousands of tournaments a day for all types of gamers. We use Tourney, our AI-powered eSports assistant for hosting 1600+ tournaments a day,” Sharma added.

LEC Introduces Sporting Financial Regulations

To support the long-term financial stability and competitive balance of the LEC, the league is going to introduce new financial regulations – known as Sporting Financial Regulations (SFR) – for the start of the 2024 LoL Esports Season.

The LEC SFR will encourage teams to maintain the total sum of its five highest-paid player salaries below a certain threshold, with teams exceeding the threshold having to pay an excess fee (SFR Fee).

In doing so, the LEC seeks to create a financially sustainable environment for its pro players, partnered teams, and the league itself, allowing all parties to grow at a healthy and scalable pace, and protect the ecosystem from unsustainable spending practices. In addition, the framework will support the league by creating a better competitive balance and more engaging competition, further enhancing the experience for players and fans.

“In the current economic climate, we are dedicated more than ever to creating a sustainable future for our players, teams, and the LoL Esports ecosystem in EMEA as a whole. The LEC SFR, which will come into effect from the beginning of the 2024 Season, is one way in which we’re continuing to work towards our goal of long-term financial sustainability. By doing this, we aim to encourage teams to operate more sustainable businesses to provide job security for players and ensure we serve our fans for decades to come,” said Maximilian Peter Schmidt, Director of League of Legends Esports EMEA.

SFR will encourage each team to maintain the total sum of salaries (known as SFR Spend) paid to the top five highest-paid players in a team within a certain range. The range includes both an upper spending threshold (SFR Threshold) and a lower spending threshold (SFR Floor), with the lower spending threshold amounting to 50% of the SFR Threshold. Meanwhile, the SFR Threshold is calculated based on a number of considerations, including LEC player salaries, League Revenue Pool of the current and forecasted years, team financial data – such as revenue and expenses – and other market indicators. Teams that exceed the SFR Threshold will be imposed with an SFR Fee.

An exception will be made to teams if a player enters into a contract with the team either during or before the end of the 2023 LEC Season Finals. In this instance, the SFR Spend will be reduced by one-fifth of the SFR Threshold or the actual salary amount; whichever is lower.

The policy will be introduced starting from the 2024 LEC Global Contract Start Date (21 November 2023), with the first cycle running until the 2024 LEC Global Contract End Date (18 November 2024).

The Global Esports Federation (GEF) has attended the 10th Commonwealth Youth Ministers’ Meeting (#10CYMM) in London and the United Nations 78th General Assembly (#UNGA78) in New York City. The GEF actively supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (#GlobalGoals) and emphasises its commitment to youth empowerment and a more connected world.

At the UN Headquarters, the GEF engaged with global youth, world leaders, and organisations showcasing its dedication to the #GlobalGoals. It underlined the opportunity and role in empowering youth and making a societal impact.

As a partner of #SDGdigital, and alongside the ITU Secretary General, Doreen Bogdan-Martin, the GEF presented the GameChangers Award, recognising youth-led organisations with innovative solutions for societal challenges.

“Sharing the messages of our community from London to New York City this week has been truly inspiring. Meeting world leaders and members of our global community, we conveyed the message that gaming and esports can be a powerful force for positive change in society, particularly for our youth. While many of us are connected, there are still 2.6 billion people who are not connected and therefore are left behind. The GEF is committed to working with partners worldwide to unlock the full potential of esports for a brighter future for all in our global community,” Paul J. Foster, CEO of the Global Esports Federation, said.

The GEF Vice President, Adrian Lismore, joined the Commonwealth Secretary-General, Rt Hon Patricia Scotland KC, at the 10th Commonwealth Youth Ministers’ Meeting in London. The Ministerial Outcome Statement included the acknowledgment of the “economic value to the member states and welcome partnership with the Global Esports Federation and other stakeholders to further develop initiatives and projects.”

The summit brought together over 400 delegates, including Ministers, Government and Senior Officials as well as young leaders, to ratify the Marlborough House Commitment, inspiring hope among Commonwealth youth.

The Commonwealth Youth Ministers acknowledged the potential of esports in driving youth engagement, innovation and economic growth, welcoming partnerships with the GEF. They also recognised the role of start-ups, including esports, in employment generation, innovation and technological advancement, pledging support for their growth.
