Abstract

The phenomenon of eSports is not a recent development, despite popular opinion being that it emerged just in the last years. The roots of competitive gaming in fact date back to the beginning of computers. Since then, eSports has been part of the evolution of computers and first rose to popularity in the arcade era. With the internet, the current iteration of eSports emerged, and the eSports industry experienced several hypes and crises. Still, there was always space for business, and many existing stakeholders appeared in the early 2000s. The recent years, however, have indeed been a time of exponential growth as well as potential business opportunities.
