Breakout Gaming launches new e-sports platform
Costa Rican online gaming company Breakout Gaming has expanded its service offering with the launch of a new e-sports platform.
Working in partnership with e-sports wagering platform Gaimerz, Breakout PVP will enable players to take part in contests and tournaments on games such as ‘Dota2’, ‘Minecraft’ and ‘League of Legends’.
While all games can be accessed for free, players in regulated jurisdictions will be able to take part in real-money competitions using Breakout Coin or other international fiat currencies.
“We’re enthusiastic about adding e-sports to our gaming portfolio; it is a great fit with our current poker site and fits well with our pending sportsbook and fantasy sports products coming this fall,” Breakout Gaming director Gian Perroni said.
“The games offered on our new site are best of breed, and each one has tens of millions of players engaged.”
Martyn Denny, co-founder of Gaimerz, added: “Breakout Gaming will be giving its players the opportunity to compete against each other, for cash prizes, via some of the world’s most popular e-sports titles.
“As a result of our partnership, instant verification of every game outcome will now be possible, allowing players to focus solely on winning challenges.”
Breakout is also planning to launch an AI-based skill poker training software in association with Neo Poker Lab on its upcoming Breakout Skill Poker platform.
