In June 2020, WePlay! Esports hosted its very first publisher-affiliated Counter-Strike: Global Offensive event, WePlay! Clutch Island. While the competition took place online due to COVID-19 restrictions, the broadcast was conducted in a studio environment with a familiar roster of commentators, analysts and – of course – WePlay! Esports’ unique set design.
