eSports is the next frontier in international sport and SuperSport plans to be there every step of the way.

Also known as electronic gaming, eSports are mind sports driven essentially by video games. Although the genre is fledgling in South Africa, there is already a sponsored local professional league.

Overseas, it is much different, as was the case in Poland this past weekend where 100 000 fans crammed in for the IEM World Championship to watch professional gamers play on giant screens. A dozen countries were represented and 10 different games featured in the competitors’ chase for a share of the $500 000 prizemoney.

Highlights of the event will be broadcast on SuperSport this week.

Last year, the League of Legends world championship was broadcast in 19 languages by 40 broadcast partners.

Local research indicates that eSports will soon become ubiquitous, especially with Generation-Zers who grew up on gaming devices and cellphones.

Highlights of the event in Poland to be broadcast as follows:

have to say, while alot more fluid than streaming, I'd have preferred if it was HD too, struggled sometimes with reading some of the text they were showing.

Otherwise was fun to watch some Highlights of Katowice, and the infamous Overpass awp boost hehehehe
