A Complete List of Olympic Esports Games

Esports and competitive games have blown up over the years, and organizations like the International Olympic Committee are starting to take an interest. With Asian Games opening the floodgates and announcing eight esports titles as medal events at the upcoming September Asian Games 2022 (being held in 2023 due to COVID-19), it seems the International Olympics Committee also wants to try its hands on it, announcing an esports series. However, while Asian Games featured some of the well-known, legacy esports titles as the medal games, the Olympic Esports lineup is strange in itself. Let’s take a look at what we mean in this in-depth guide about the Olympic Esports Series 2023 games.

The Role of Sports in Climate Change

The magnitude of climate change is arguably best depicted in the fact that most, if not all, aspects of life are altered by it. The sport industry, one of the most popular forms of entertainment across the entire world, is no different.

With the sport industry significantly contributing to global warming, it also has a large potential to be a part of the solution. However, its positive contribution has still not been maximised. We take a look at organisations that have found a way for sports to join the fight against climate change and continue to pave the way for others to follow.
