In two complimentary announcements, Xbox has announced a tournament system that will better cater to its gaming audience.
A partnership between Microsoft and ESL has brought on a tournament system that is integrated into the Xbox live tournaments platform. This allows players to take part in ESL events using their home consoles and allows "third party video game developers and publishers to add a competitive layer to their games." The company has also introduced 'Xbox Arena' -- an esports tournament platform that can work on a variety of consoles and devices, making it much more comprehensive in its reach.
The new tournament system that Xbox is offering works to make the process of gaming and competitions more convenient.
