My beloved ESGS, the Esports and Gaming Summit, now in its 7th year will continue this year as an online-only event. With the Philippine government still implement tight control over large gatherings, live events have yet to return. Last year, ESGS was held as an online event by organizer Gariath Concept and it will continue to do so this year with the announcement of ESGS 2021 happening this November 19 to 21 as an online event.
“Last year, because Gaming Never Stops, we refused to let the pandemic hinder us from creating an online version of ESGS. This year, we continue to build on that and aim to offer even better content and more tournaments that the ESGS fanbase has come to expect over the years.”
– Richard Brojan, CEO of Gariath Concepts
Today’s event content will aim to deliver the same experience with esports tournaments and segments from publishers as well as the sessions from professionals in the video game industry.
