Champion of Champions Tour to be featured on DAZN
Berlin, February 14, 2023 — Champion of Champions Tour partners with DAZN, bringing the CCT’s professional CS:GO content to the platform.
For the first time, DAZN will be offering official Champion of Champions Tour (CCT) content via the Tour’s international Counter-Strike: Global Offensive competitions. This partnership expands upon the readily available esports content and adds to the long list of titles that DAZN features.
All of the CCT Playoffs action will be available for streaming on DAZN, the global sports-entertainment platform, starting February 16, 2023. The Central Europe Malta Finals will kickstart this initiative, with future CCT content coming to DAZN as the Tour progresses.
Fabian Logemann, Head of Tournaments at GRID Esports, on the expansion:
“Partnering with DAZN to bring CCT to their platform has been a key milestone for us. DAZN is synonymous with the best in sports broadcasting, and we believe the addition of esports via the CCT is a perfect fit. This is another important step towards showcasing the increasing importance of esports amongst all forms of entertainment, and we couldn’t be more excited than to join forces with DAZN in this venture.”
Additionally, DAZN hosting CCT streams will expand the reach of the tournament, creating an esports presence alongside the world’s most enjoyed traditional sports. This adds to the already impressive title portfolio of the streaming platform. Putting CS:GO next to traditional sports like football, Formula 1, boxing, and many more is another step forward for the industry.
