About Us

We know you’ve got choices for esports & gaming content. So we’re not gonna say “stay up to date”, or “discover the world of esports” or any of that jazz. All we’re gonna say is this: Gaming and esports is vast and complicated....but fun and our passion.

There are too many leagues, too many scenes, too many news… it’s hard to stay up to date and a one-stop-shop is quite convenient. Well, well, well, what do you know: We’re that one-stop-shop. Videos? We got you. Opinion pieces? Check. Guides? Yes! Highlights, top whatever lists and tier lists? You know we got that. Stay up to date with EarlyGame and you stay up to date with gaming. And, yes, that was a slogan. Couldn’t be helped. By the way, should you not like any of the games we cover, we got a couple more brands that might be more your style, like MobileMatters! You should check it out!

EarlyGame is part of EarlyGame Group - everything we do, you'll find on our group website!
