CynopsisESPORTS

It’s Thursday August 29, 2019 and this is your weekly early morning Esports briefing. For additional longer-form esports news plus jobs, a team directory, glossary, calendar and data, check out our new esports hub updated daily: http://cynopsisesports.com.

Mobile esports are poised for a breakout, according to Niko Partners, which announced research projecting that mobile esports will become the fastest growth sector in the esports industry and that a mobile esports boom is poised to propel mobile esports from a niche industry to the mass market. The reports, titled The Evolution of Mobile Esports, explores the evolution of mobile esports, compared to PC esports, globally, with a focus on Asian markets.

According to their data, mobile esports will precipitate a shift from a limited number of high-profile, spectator-focused esports productions toward a much larger number of open tournaments carried out regionally and locally. In 2018, mobile esports games generated $15.3 billion (25% of total mobile game revenue) with $5.6 billion from China alone, and another $450 million from Greater Southeast Asia.

“Mobile esports tournaments will engage consumers not only as spectators but as participants. This will create mass market participation and engagement, growing a far larger audience for esports and generating new opportunities for revenue,” said Lisa Hanson founder and managing partner of Niko Partners. “We will see esports transition from fewer large tournaments to the addition of large numbers of smaller tournaments that are open to everyone who wants to compete.”

COMPETITION AND VENUES

Interactive entertainment media publisher and developer BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment America unveiled a new esports tournament built around the melee weapons-based fighting game, the SOULCALIBUR World Invitational.

Offering a record $34 million in prizing, Valve officials announced that The International 2020 would take place in Stockholm, to mark the first European TI since the first International that was held in Cologne. This year’s event saw Team OG walk away the winners with over $15 million in winnings and marking the first time that The International has been won back to back.

ESL announced plans to bring the 77th edition of IEM to Beijing-Haidian to celebrate the company’s 10th-year anniversary in China on November 7-10, 2019. The event will host eight teams at Beijing University Students’ Gymnasium of Capital University of Physical Education and Sports to compete for the total prize pool of US$250,000 and a victory towards the Intel Grand Slam. The competition marks the first time that IEM is hosted in a standalone location in China.

The GIRLGAMER Esports Festival, organized by Evoloop and presented by Grow uP eSports, cemented a strategic partnership with Meydan One – a lifestyle and retail destination currently under development in Dubai, United Arab Emirates – and Galaxy Racer Esports to host the GIRLGAMER Esports Festival World Finals at the venue. The World Finals will be held from Dec. 12-14. “We are very enthusiastic about bringing our event to Dubai and incredibly happy to have found such amazing partners to join us in the mission towards inclusivity. Diversity is at the heart of everything we do, and the GIRLGAMER World Finals will help bring global attention to the incredible gender equality work being done in the region. We also hope to inspire the young generation to grow up more inclusively and parents to develop better relationships with their children,” said Fernando Pereira, organizer of the GIRLGAMER Esports Festival.

Riot Games announced that it had settled a class-action lawsuit that alleged claims of “gender discrimination in pay and promotion, sexual harassment, and retaliation against women working at Riot offices in California.” In a statement the company writes that “We made a commitment to Rioters that we would be willing to take the steps necessary to build trust and to demonstrate that we’re serious about Riot evolving into an excellent place to work for all Rioters. Under these circumstances, we’ve had to look critically at our litigation approach to the class action lawsuit. While we believed that we had a strong position to litigate, we realized that in the long run, doing what is best for both Riot and Rioters was our ideal outcome. Therefore, rather than entrench ourselves and continue to litigate, we chose to pivot and try to take an approach that we believe best demonstrates our commitment to owning our past, and to healing the company so that we can move forward together. As such, we’re pleased to announce that we’ve come to an agreement in principle to settle the class action lawsuit against Riot.”
