Press release:
Barcelona, Spain – October 29, 2020.
U-Play Online and Raiser Games are today very excited and proud to announce that their MOBA manager/sim “Esports Life Tycoon” is now avaible for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop.
Carry your team throughout the season and relive the best moments of the tournament on-the-go. Can you replicate the success of your idols and achieve the ultimate goal of becoming World Champion?
Esports Life Tycoon is a fun, casual MOBA manager/sim that reveals the inner workings of the competitive gaming scene. As the CEO of a professional esports team, players will have to train their squad, counsel them, analyze their opponents, deal with unexpected emergencies, expand their gaming house, participate in MOBA simulated matches… And defeat legendary names like Fnatic, TSM, PSG, Heretics, or G2 Esports, to become the best team in the world.
“Esports Life Tycoon players have the opportunity to create, manage, and lead their own MOBA squad, from initial non-professional matches to the highest division.”, says Sergio de Benito, Head of Marketing at Raiser Games.
“The standouts of the season, which include current Worlds Semifinalist G2 Esports, will test their esports knowledge and management skills, until only one team remains at the top.”
Esports Life Tycoon brings players closer to their real-life counterparts, simulating the professional careers of esports managers with accuracy. They will have to take into account consequential aspects like group moral, rival knowledge, and team tactics to succeed in their seasons. Other day-to-day moments involve hyping fans, trading players with other teams, or developing individual skills, among other cornerstone activities.
Acting as the spin-off to the bestselling franchise Youtubers Life, which recently reached 1.5 million copies worldwide, Esports Life Tycoon launches on Nintendo’s hybrid console after graduating from Steam Early Access, and two weeks before its Xbox One and PS4 premiere on November 12.
