Nikko Acosta, SVP and Head for Content Business Group of Globe have explained that the ESC is the first of its kind in the Philippines created to support various esports communities.
The ESC is an experience hub in which Filipino gamers and gaming enthusiasts can participate in competition, creation of live streaming content, and interaction with other members of different esports communities. We want to bring together different communities of popular games like Arena of Valor (AOV), Rules of Survival (ROS), League of Legends and Tekken among others in one venue to upgrade their knowledge and gauge their skill levels with others through peer learning of new strategies and techniques, he said.
