Esports News UK started in 2015 with one goal – to put UK esports on the map. From match reports and team interviews to analysis across League of Legends, Rocket League, and Valorant, the site built its reputation as the go-to place for UK and Ireland esports coverage.
In 2025, we expanded our coverage. Alongside our esports news, we also provide online casino and sports betting updates for the UK market. Whether you’re looking for the best slots, low-stakes live tables, or fast-payout betting platforms, our mission is the same – to help you make informed choices with honest, detailed insights.
We still celebrate our roots. Our archive of UK esports stories remains online, and we continue to champion the same clarity and community-first mindset that defined our early years.
Why the Shift?
The UK online gambling space is packed with options, but not all are worth your time. Our team reviews casino and betting sites with a UK-first approach, covering game variety, licensing, mobile usability, and fast withdrawals.
We don’t do fluff. Every review is written with care, tested firsthand, and aimed at helping you find the platforms that deliver a top-notch gambling experience every time.

A Brief History of Esports News
The idea for Esports News UK was first recognised in 2007, winning the ‘New Magazine Concept’ award from the Periodicals Training Council. It became a reality in 2015, launching as a site covering UK esports with a spotlight on League of Legends.
By 2018, the site had earned industry recognition, including a ‘Highly Commended’ mention at the UK Blog Awards. In 2024, we received a small grant through Bournemouth University and Santander to fund more freelance contributions.
In 2025, Esports News UK was reinvented to serve a broader audience of UK casino and betting enthusiasts.
