SPOTLIGHT: LOGITECH G ADAPTIVE ESPORTS TOURNAMENT

Together with the AbleGamers Charity, Adaptive Action Sports and Mount Sinai, Logitech G provides gamers with disabilities with a professional series of esports tournaments featuring high stakes, bragging rights and USD50,000 in cash and prizes.

In continuation of the inaugural season, the Adaptive Esports Tournament (AET) series returned in FY23 with a new series of Rocket League 2v2 tournaments, events, and broadcasts. After each broadcast, Logitech G also invited AET Discord members to continue the party by playing games together in the new AET Community Game Nights, hosting a variety of titles and lobbies for the community to connect, chat about esports, and win prizes.

Logitech aims to grow the size and reach of AET together with it's partners, continuously seeking new opportunities to get more people playing. Adaptive Esports Tournaments are one of many ways that Logitech G uses its impact as a global brand to help people experience the joy of play.

I’m incredibly proud of the work we’ve done with our Adaptive Esports Tournament. We’ve always believed that life is more fun when you play, so whenever we have the opportunity to bring the joy of play to more people, it’s something we’re extremely passionate about.
