Leagues
The go-to platform for the new way of gaming.
Active Next round Seed Denmark SaaSGamingClubs and teams want to make it easier for players to find someone to play with and to play competitive, but this is not centralised in gaming. That sort of go-to space, where you can find someone to play with, communicate with people and play competitive in league formats, doesn’t exist in the same place within gaming. That is what Leagues are creating: a democratised go-to space, outside of the in-game solutions that exist on individual game level.
On their platform, people will be able to find teams to play with, competitive leagues to take part in, and communicate with each other.
