Kitamen started as a small community place for gamers to gather passionate gamers and eSports enthusiasts to connect with each other. With the tremendous growth in the reception of eSports in Malaysia, Kitamen has ventured into the event ecosystem to position itself as a lifestyle eSports brand and since then, has been working with global brands as a pathway to the elusive gamer community, and acts as a vehicle for brands to connect with an exclusive user segment.
As of today, Kitamen has 17 Licensed eSports Dojo’s nationwide with a growing community of 90,000 members and counting.
eSports is competitive gaming. Competitive gaming and organized tournaments have been around for decades. However, major innovations in the space over the past few years, such as streaming platforms, have enabled the space to see an explosion in viewership and interest. To give some perspective, during one match of the 2017 League of Legends World Championships, views peaked over 106m unique viewers at one time – more than the total number of unique viewers of the 2016 Olympics Opening Ceremony which was 30m viewers.
And this is just the beginning; Kitamen wants eSports to be mainstream and making it accessible to more than 14,000,000 gamers nationwide.
The importance and potential of eSports is greatly underexposed especially with the lack of eSports centres that house the facilities to provide the exposure and education to the industry. Centres that currently exist still promote the negativity stigma of video gaming among parents. It is difficult to consider this a healthy industry when the majority does not know the existence of eSports, and this greatly affects the drive that needed to grow the industry.
