In a impressive move for esports sponsorships, FaZe Clan, a dominant name in competitive gaming, has announced a multi-million dollar partnership with Rollbit, a crypto gambling platform. This sponsorship primarily supports FaZe Clan's Counter-Strike 2 team, currently leading Valve's global rankings.
While the specific financial terms remain under wraps, the scale of the deal is huge. FaZe Clan President Erik Anderson named it one of the largest in the history of Counter-Strike and esports. This partnership enables Rollbit to engage with the extensive, globally dispersed fan base of esports.
FaZe Clan, renowned for its high-caliber teams in titles like Call of Duty and Rainbow Six Siege, has recently undergone substantial corporate changes. Acquired in 2023 by Gamesquare, which is supported by Jerry Jones, owner of the Dallas Cowboys, for $17 million, the organization had previously debuted on Nasdaq with a valuation of $725 million.
