Speaking on the event, the Co-Founder of Esports Africa Tournament, Gabriel Sikanku urged all game enthusiasts from all over Africa to join the live event on Saturday, he said these competitions and tournaments are the backbone of a sustainable esports ecosystem in the African region.
He mentioned that “Esports competitions have the potential to bridge the gap between Africa and Western world and promote cross cultural relationships. With increasing number of people around the world having access to gaming consoles such as PS5 and Xbox, it is becoming easier for gamers in Africa to compete with their peers in Western countries,”
“Furthermore, improved internet bandwidth has made it possible for African gamers to participate in virtual reality gaming tournaments. This has enabled African gamers from Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, etc., to compete with other players around the world.”
He concluded that another exciting aspect of these competitions are the opportunity for gamers to experience different cultures when participating in international tournaments and teams travel to other countries. These events will also help promote gaming culture across Africa, as well as provide an avenue for African gamers to showcase their skills on a global stage.
Given that most African countries have limited access to high-speed devices and internet, virtual or online tournaments could be used to bring these two worlds closer together.
This would allow African gamers to compete with their Western counterparts without having to worry about bandwidth issues or latency issues that are often associated with online gaming. By leveraging modern technology, esports competitions between Africa and Western countries could become revolutionary.
