Millennial Esports’ Relationship with Amazon GameOn Leads to Greater Player Engagement and Retention for Gear.Club
24 Juillet 2018 - 3:12PM
Millennial Esports Corp. ("Millennial" or the
"Company") (TSX VENTURE:GAME) (OTCQB:MLLLF), is pleased to
announce that the Company’s relationship with Amazon GameOn
continues to bear fruit, as evidenced by a 20 per cent increase in
tournament player retention for the Gear.Club mobile racing game
when compared to average benchmark retention in other tournaments
run by Millennial Esports’ Eden Games in the past.
“We found the idea of rewarding tournaments with
physical products shipping from Amazon.com to be a very compelling
proposition for the mobile Esports ecosystem,” said David Nadal,
CEO of Eden Games. “There's obviously no better partner in the
world than Amazon to execute on that vision, taking into
consideration the logistics behind the scenes.”
Eden had been seeking to bring new users
to Gear.Club, while also increasing engagement with current players
to result in more driving time. To accomplish this, Eden
integrated Amazon GameOn to easily run cross-platform tournaments,
including leaderboards, and to award players with real-world prizes
fulfilled by Amazon.
In March of this year, Eden Games ran its U.S.
Series Tournament in Gear.Club, inviting players to race to the top
of the leaderboard for a chance to win an Amazon Echo device. While
big cash pools may be successful with PC games, David Nadal has
seen more success with real-world prizes in mobile games. And, with
shorter tournament cycles and more regular chances to win prizes,
players are incentivized to keep coming back.
“We are totally in love with the idea of
offering physical products to reward competitive mobile gaming and
Gear.Club players were quite excited about the prospect of winning
a device,” said Nadal. “Physical and tangible beats digital when it
comes to rewarding players for major achievement and real-world
prizing feels more playful than straight cash.”
