With a collection of wholly-owned young gamer properties in Super League’s Minehut and Mobcrush’s Mine Ville, a roster of gaming influencers who generate almost two million hours of content annually, and Super League Arena, a compelling esports tournament broadcast series featuring top amateur and semi-pro players, the companies are in an exciting position to provide brands, advertisers, and other consumer-facing businesses access to the highly prized, highly engaged esports audience they crave.
“It is a fantastic year to be presenting alongside Mobcrush at this year’s Newfront,” says Matt Edelman, Super League’s Chief Commercial Officer. “The continued growth of Super League’s community, in tandem with Mobcrush’s remarkable audience reach, allows us to provide partners with exactly the right content-driven and digital-to-physical activations that entertain and delight gamers throughout their player journey.”
