Ukraine-based esports viewership analytics platform Esports Charts announced Thursday that it has teamed up with betting company GG.BET to launch a new web-based product called Esports Map.
Financial terms of this new partnership were not disclosed.
Esports Map is described as an interactive map that offers data on the most popular esports tournaments in 110 different countries around the world, utilizing Esports Charts viewership and other tournament-related data. The data provided through Esports Charts includes the most popular tournaments by country, as well as data on peak viewership, winners, and prize pools dating back to 2017. Esports Map also details the most popular games in each country, and for the United States,m provides a breakdown by state.
For its part on this project, GG.BET supplemented the information from Esports with “interesting facts about participating teams,” including “historical breakthroughs by underdogs and unexpected losses by tournament favorites.” Much of this information is provided using past outright betting data.
“Esports Map is a new project from Esports Charts, which we’ve launched alongside GG.BET as our first partner. We aimed to create a tool that would be interesting and useful to both fans and industry professionals,” said Esports Charts in its announcement. “At its core lies Esports Charts’ analytics, supplemented by betting insights from GG.BET—covering everything from peak viewership and prize pools to discipline trends and stories of unexpected victories. When combined, this data turns into a live snapshot of esports that can be tracked by country and region.”
This is not the first time the two companies have worked on a project like this: in 2024 Esports Charts and GG.BET created a project for the BLAST Premier 2024 season, which showed data on views, game data, bets placed, and an analytical breakdown of the season.
