Organized Gaming is partnering with BOLT+ to create a new global esports channel

TORONTO/LONDON, CANADA/UK, August 7, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Organized Gaming, a subsidiary of Amuka Esports, has signed a new licensing agreement with BOLT+; the live, interactive and rewarding streaming platform operated by BOLT. Under the agreement, BOLT+ will host a new esports channel featuring the entire Organized Gaming library of content. Organized Gaming has spent the past 5 years developing a unique catalogue of media that showcases some of the most compelling stories from esports teams, tournament organizers and fans across North America.

“Our passion is telling the stories behind the headlines from the people that are developing the esports scene here in Canada,” said Alex Kim, Co-Founder of Organized Gaming. “With BOLT+, we can now reach esports fans in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe. Esports is global, and now we are too.”

“Esports is the new frontier of sports, and its attractiveness lies in the fact that everyone can be an esports athlete,” said Jamal Hassim, Founder and CEO of BOLT. “Organized Gaming’s holistic approach to esports coverage is compelling for both gamers and enthusiasts. This partnership is an important one for us, and it certainly resonates with our goal to make BOLT+ the top platform for live streamers to be rewarded for their work and passion.”

Esports streaming has seen explosive growth over the past year. According to Stream Hatchet, a data analytics firm, viewership has increased 98% in Q2 2020 compared to the year before. This has clocked up over 7.6 billion hours of streaming in 2020 alone.

The Organized Gaming channel will be premiering on August 7th on BOLT+. The BOLT+ platform is available on both Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.
