This year will mark the first time that esports is included as a medal event in the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou, China, running from September 10th to the 25th.
“We urge all esports athletes to participate in large numbers and become a part of this historical event where esports is making its debut as a medal event in Asian Games,” said Vinod Tiwari, President of ESFI.
There will be competitions in Dota 2, Hearthstone, FIFA 22, Street Fighter V, and League of Legends. Professional esports athletes, as well as enthusiasts from across the country, can register themselves. The last date for the registration will be April 1st.
