Under the ESL Gaming and FACEIT merger that occurred in early 2022, Esports Engine has flourished as a key cog within one of the largest esports ecosystems in the world. With production and broadcast operations for major esports competitions like Dreamhack, ESL Pro Tour, Intel Extreme Masters, and more, the esports outfit is excelling in new ways as the calendar flips to 2024.
