James Dean and Mason Grove from ESL UK visited us at OcUK and we asked them a few questions about the new ESL studio. We also visited to take a look ourselves, and it is extremely impressive!

We have also asked ESL about the future of esports, how to get started in esports, VR and esports, and loads more, so keep your eyes peeled as we have a full interview video that is 19 minutes long, giving you everything you need to know about ESL and esports!

*Edit*

Here is the full 19 minutes video!

Umm... that was dreadful. Who are ESL, what do they do, where are they, etc, etc? Maybe I'm an aging fogey but that video left me thoroughly confused. Are they a bar which caters to esports and selling alcohol is their USP or what? Some background would have helped a lot. And the guy on the left looked like he was high.

The main video which will explain all is coming, which will also answer all of your questions

That's rather better, thank you. Though I must confess I got thoroughly bored and stopped watching at 6:43. At almost 50, I'm just not the target market.

It must be something that is not of interest to you. However, it is an extremely fast growing market right now, so I am sure there will be a lot of people interested in ESL and esports in general.

Do you have any links for the leagues/tournaments that are running?

I want to see what I can sign up to myself, with my team.

Depends what games you play, but ESL run their own tournaments here: http://play.eslgaming.com/uk there are other companies like FaceIt, and I am sure there are loads more. But these are probably one of the most popular leagues.
