Our Mission
In short, our mission is to become the foremost esports news and betting resource online.
We can all agree that esports is more than a simple pastime – it’s a culture with a vibrant community and an even brighter future. At Esports News UK, we want to be a major driver of that journey by shining a light on every aspect of the scene.
Far too often in other sports and endeavours, we see wedges formed between grassroots players, fans, and championship winners. But ultimately, what makes Esports special is the relationship between the stars and the fans who fuel it all.
From breaking stories to betting insights, we go beyond headlines to capture what esports really means. By informing, inspiring, and connecting a global community through the lens of UK esports, we can do something that matters.
Our Editorial Process
Ask any of our editors and they'll tell you that accuracy is paramount at Esports News UK. Fact-checks aren’t optional – instead, they’re the foundation of everything we publish.
Whether it’s breaking news, fan opinions, esports betting coverage, or slots reviews, our readers trust us to get it right. We take that trust seriously.
To maintain the highest standards, we follow a strict in-house process. Our editors carry out intensive fact-checking, sourcing, and content reviews before any story goes live. We verify details, cross-check information, and ensure every piece meets our editorial guidelines.
No shortcuts, no guesswork – only reliable, accurate reporting.
A Brief History of Esports News UK
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.
Our New Ambitions
In 2025, Esports News UK was reinvented to serve a broader audience of UK casino and betting enthusiasts. Esports News UK 2.0, if you will, has even bigger, grander, and more ambitious goals.
We will keep you informed every step of the way about where we're heading to. We appreciate your support and hope you enjoy the new site design and features available!
