Enthusiast Gaming (EGLX.T) has signed an integrated and strategic partnership deal with ESPAT TV, a full-service collaborative production house.
“ESPAT TV is a strong producer of gaming and entertainment content across multiple distribution channels, and we are thrilled to enter into such a like-minded partnership that brings new storytelling possibilities to our platform of fan communities…With the unique advantage provided by this Creative Collective, we aim to further the production of premium gaming content across social-video and entertainment platforms,” commented Adrian Montgomery, CEO of Enthusiast Gaming.
Through this partnership, ESPAT hopes to leverage Enthusiast Gaming’s reach into the Gen-Z and Millennial demographics via the Company’s integrated platform of fan communities. That’s great but it sounds a little one sided doesn’t it? What exactly does Enthusiast Gaming get out of this partnership? Well, Enthusiast Gaming will now have access to and will be working together with ESPAT TV’s Creative Collective, consisting of Ridley Scott Creative Group, Petrol, PRG, and Movers and Shakers. Ridley Scott Creative Group was founded by, you guessed it, legendary film director and producer Ridley Scott.
ESPAT partnered with the Ridley Scott Creative Group in December, 2020, with the intent of creating a group capable of delivering a wide range of premium gaming and esports content. With this in mind, Enthusiast Gaming will be working with a massive collective of visionaries hoping to push the boundaries of gaming content. Reaching over 300 million monthly video game and esports fans worldwide, Enthusiast Gaming is already recognized as the largest gaming media company in North America. The Company’s latest partnership will push that growth further.

This partnership is about growth, aligning with the largest gaming community in North America. ESPAT TV team continues to exceed my expectations with their ability to develop stories and relationships.

Overall, it appears as if Enthusiast Gaming is amassing an army of recognized brands to solidify its position as North America’s leading gaming media platform. Having caught the attention of both ESPAT and TikTok, the Company’s influence is sure to grow in the future.
