Bayes Esports Partners with Krafton

Bayes Esports has entered into a partnership with video game publisher Krafton.

As per the deal, Bayes Esports will supply live data to Krafton, specifically for players of PUBG: Battlegrounds.

Krafton is a South Korean company that has developed or owns the rights to several notable video game titles. These include TERA, The Callisto Protocol and the popular, battle royale game PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, or “PUBG” for short.

“We aim to support Krafton in laying the groundwork to streamline data access for its global community and scale their official data offering both for esports and community use cases,” Amir Mirzaee, COO and MD of Bayes, said.

“That will include enabling a broad variety of digital applications, including live and historic game data access, statistics and data visualisations, and many more.”

The collaboration will expand Bayes’ coverage, and in particular, build on an existing partnership with Riot Games for major esports titles, such as League of Legends.

“However, we’re still in the early days of enabling the esports industry,” emphasised Mirzaee.

Yi Min-ho, Krafton’s Head of PUBG Esports, said: “Krafton always seeks to provide a wider variety of entertainment to its PUBG Esports fans and audience.

“By working with Bayes, Krafton is thrilled to be providing numerous meaningful and insightful data to our fans, allowing them to dive deeper into the world of PUBG Esports.”
