Globe Esports Center, ayuda sa eGamers
BILANG pagkilala sa naging ambag para mapagwagihan ng Team Philippines ang overall championship sa katatapos na 2019 Southeast Asian (SEA) Games, may bagong venue na magagamit ang Pinoy eGamers – ang Esports Center (ESC) sa Eastwood Mall sa Quezon City.
Sa pangangasiwa ng Globe, sa pakikipagtulungan ng Mineski, Megaworld, at Logitech, ang bagong pasilidad ay magagamit ng Pinoy eGamers para higit na mahasa ang kahusayan sa sports na unti-unti nang niyayakap ng sporting community.
Isinagawa sa unang pagkakataon bilang regular sports ang eSports sa katatapos na SEA Games. Nakatakda rin itong isagawa sa 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
Higit na humatak sa masang Pinoy ang sports nang magwagi ang
Team Liyad ng gintong medalya sa biennial meet.
