Gamers8 has made it abundantly clear that it is all in on Esports. From Gamers8 2023, set to be the biggest Esports festival ever with a $45 million prize pool, to their collaboration with other major Esports tournaments organizations like Dreamhack.
Their lineup of games is incredibly diverse. From CSGO, Rainbow Six Siege, and PUBG to DOTA2 and Starcraft 2. From Rocket League and Fortnite to Tekken 7 and Street Fighter 6, there's a competitive Esports at Gamers8 for almost everyone. Gamers8's investment and commitment to Esports are notable, and Esports organizations that have made similar investments in the space will have a chance for those investments to pay off big time.
The Top 8 Esports Clubs Will Win Big
Gamers8 has announced its first Gamers8 Club Awards. Beginning on July 6 and running through August 27, the Gamers8 Club Awards will track the performance of all Esports organizations competing in their upcoming tournaments. Organizations can earn points by placing high in Gamers8's Esports tournaments. Gamers8 will update the rankings daily throughout the summer.

The Gamers8 Club Awards competition has some important rules to keep in mind. All players must publicly and officially register as members of a qualifying Esports organization to earn points. If an organization makes any roster changes, it must notify the official tournament administrator before the tournament begins.
While not uncommon for Esports players to compete for multiple organizations in tournaments, the Gamers8 Club Awards discourages journeyman Esports shenanigans. If a team consists of players representing more than one Esports organization, points earned will be divided proportionately among all represented clubs depending on the number of players used.
With so many Gamers8 tournaments set to take place this summer, larger Esports organizations will have a significant advantage should they qualify for multiple tournaments. However, organizations will not be able to double or triple up in the same tournament. If, for example, an organization has three players competing in the Gamers8 Tekken 7 tournament, only the points of their best-performing player will count towards the organization's overall score.
To make things even more exciting, we're proud to announce the Gamers8 Club Awards Ceremony, which will be held on August 30-31 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
We can't wait to crown the very best esports clubs in the world! 👑 pic.twitter.com/3QFYIy22WQ

Good luck to all competing organizations, and here's to a brighter future for Esports!
