Tencent and the Olympic Council of Asia will collaborate for the development of esports – With the gaming industry growing exponentially every year, the professional esports scene has also risen up to become an exciting and entertaining sporting event. While the western world has almost fully embraced the esports environment, it is still a challenging task to implement and spread esports in Asia. It is because most countries here are developing and despite the large population, few people have access to the latest equipment and services required for gaming.

Still, it looks like the esports scene in Asia will see a huge boost as Tencent, the largest gaming company in the world, and the Olympic Council of Asia have reached an agreement that will help to develop and promote esports in the region.
