ST. MARY’S, Antigua, Dec. 03, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (GMBL:OTCQB) (or the “Company”), a licensed online gambling company with a specific focus on esports wagering and 18+ gaming, is pleased to announce the signing of an Affiliate Marketing Agreement with Global Speedrun Association (“GSA”), which hosts and administrates races on a broad variety of speedrun games, most notably Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Odyssey, across their three Twitch channels.  As the first platform to offer wagering for speedrunning, this agreement is another milestone for vie.gg, the world’s first and most transparent esports betting exchange.

GLOBAL SPEEDRUNNING COMMUNITY GROWING RAPIDLY

GSA is a relatively new company dedicated to pushing speedrunning into the mainstream and helping speedrunners achieve the same success that esports athletes now enjoy.  Despite its relatively recent entrance into the speedrunning space, GSA has generated impressive traffic with 860,000 views from 3 Twitch.tv channels over the last 30 days.  More importantly, GSA is growing rapidly and this partnership with VIE.gg will only serve to help accelerate that growth.

The global speedrunning community is growing at a very fast pace, with single events raising over $2,000,000 for charity in 2018, and is expected to continue growing at a very rapid pace for years to come. As the premier P2P betting platform for speedrunning, VIE now gives fans the ability to be on their favourite players, which will serve to broaden the fan base and their attention times, as well as, help attract the top players in the world, including top esports players with an affinity for speedrunning.

Brian Cordry, Head of Esports at Esports Entertainment Group, stated, “Groups like GSA help raise the standard of production quality and push speedrunning forward. We love speedrunners and we love what GSA is doing. I expect speedrunning to grow exponentially and that is why it is so important for Esports Entertainment Group to partner with the likes of GSA for the long term. Together, we will help push speedrunning to the heights that esports is currently achieving.”

Steven Adams, Chief Executive Officer at Global Speedrun Association stated, “GSA is the premier organized speedrunning league and our goal is to increase the consistent quality of our broadcasts and competitions by working with VIE in 2018 and beyond.  The key differences this relationship will make are being able to fund larger prize pools for our leagues and tournaments to catalyze higher levels of competition, as well as, attracting and compensating key people that make our broadcasts so entertaining, such as great commentators, video editors and other GSA staff who will be able to increase the output and quality of their productions. Working together will help push speedrunning to new heights and help grow this budding sector of the video game industry, which will lead to betting growth on VIE. Looking forward to the future!”

VIE is now positioned to become the P2P betting platform for speedrunning and expects to announce further agreements in this space.

SpeedGaming Founder Feasel stated “SpeedGaming is proud to be partnering with Vie.gg. We have built the largest competitive speedrunning network, broadcasting over 50 tournaments per year on 9 channels. We are happy to be giving our users the ability to bet on their favourite players. We expect that this, along with substantial cash prizes for upcoming tournaments, will serve to broaden the exposure of both SpeedGaming and Vie, as well as, continue to attract the top players in the world to join these events.”

Brian Cordry, Head of Esports at Esports Entertainment Group, stated, “SpeedGaming has been home to every important speedrun game for the past 3 years across its collective English Twitch channels, as well as, a handful of broadcasts in other languages. SpeedGaming is truly a speedrun authority and we look forward to supporting their community by sponsoring two tournaments and taking bets on several more they will be hosting to close out 2018. We are especially excited to build a long-term future with SpeedGaming and help push speedrunning to the heights that esports is currently achieving.”

ST. MARY’S, Antigua, Sept. 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Esports Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTCQB:GMBL) (or the “Company”), a licensed online gambling company with a specific focus on esports wagering and 18+ gaming, is pleased to announce Affiliate Marketing Agreements with 42 additional esports teams as the Company continues to ramp up affiliate marketing activities in support of its recent launch of vie.gg, the world’s first and most transparent esports betting exchange.

SIGNIFICANT ACCELERATION IN ESPORTS TEAM ADOPTION OF P2P WAGERING MODEL

This announcement, along with the announcement of 36 additional esports teams earlier this week, signifies a significant acceleration in adoption of the company’s P2P esports wagering platform by global esports teams. Teams are overwhelmingly pointing to the P2P model as highly desirable for their fans due to the fact “at VIE.gg a fan always wins”, as opposed to pitting fans against the “bookie” in the traditional model where the odds are heavily stacked against fans.

The addition of these 42 esports teams brings the total number of esports team affiliates to 176 since the Company’s first announcement on April 5^th, representing a major milestone for Esports Entertainment Group.  The Company anticipates many more Affiliate Marketing Agreements with esports teams throughout 2018.

NEWEST ESPORT TEAM AFFILIATES FURTHER EXPAND GLOBAL REACH INTO SOUTH AMERICA

The addition of the 42 esports teams below represents further significant geographical penetration into the South American market.  The geographical distribution of our most recent esports team affiliate partners is as follows:

• Brazil: 26
• Peru: 6
• Chile: 2
• Venezuela: 2
• Colombia: 1
• Bolivia: 1
• Mexico: 1
• Guatemala: 1
• Paraguay: 1
• Dominican Republic: 1

Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group, stated, “The acceleration of our esports team affiliates is quantifiable and unequivocal validation that our VIE.gg P2P model is best suited for esports teams and their fans.  I want to thank these new esports teams for their support and I look forward to working with them as VIE.gg affiliate partners.”
