GEICO renews ELEAGUE sponsorship

MCV Staff 6th April 2017 Business News

American insurance company GEICO has renewed its sponsorship of ELEAGUE, after a successful first year working together. 

GEICO was one of the first non-endemic brands to sponsor Tuner’s eSports competitions, and was featured heavily during all of the different events that ELEAGUE ran over the past 12 months. 

While there were reports at the turn of the year that some partners were not impressed with the viewing figures for the competition, it seems like GEICO was more than happy, as they have renewed the deal for a further 12 months. No financial terms were mentioned but reports from last year suggested a year’s sponsorship could set you back $2 million.

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
