Natural smart drinks company Go Mate has partnered with international esports platform Challengermode for a series of launch day esports tournaments for Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0. This partnership builds on the existing work that Challengermode has done with Go Mate to promote its healthy energy drink alternatives to an international audience of grassroots esports competitors.

Coinciding with the release of Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, Go Mate will officially be launching its line of all-natural smart drinks aimed at the gaming and esports community. Starting the day after the game drops, aspiring esports hopefuls around the world will be able to compete in Warzone 2.0 for real money prizes provided by Go Mate. Weekly duos tournaments will run from November 16th onwards – with Go Mate being the first brand to provide Warzone 2.0 tournament gameplay on the Challengermode platform.

Healthy All-Natural Smart Drink for Gamers

Go Mate is a 100% natural no-added sugar drinks company that allows consumers sustained energy and mental focus to boost in-game performance, as well as to help them wind down and recharge. Rich in antioxidants and nutrients, Go Mate’s “Awake” and “Relax” drinks are designed to improve cognition and physical performance. Above all, Go Mate aims to reshape how the esports space connects with the drinks industry.

Phil Hubner, CBDO of Challengermode said: “We are incredibly excited to be working with Go Mate on the first Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 tournament on the Challengermode platform. We see Go Mate’s work in encouraging healthy drinks alternatives and healthy approaches to play in the esports space as a positive for players. We think there is huge potential for Go Mate to redefine how players approach drinks that level up their gameplay in a healthier way, and we are pleased that we have been able to help them in reaching the competitive gaming audience at large in an authentic way.”

Frank Mertens, Co-Founder of Go Mate Drinks: “Challengermode has been super helpful for us to connect with audiences in the esports space in a way that resonates with them. We are glad to be working with them to spread the message of the positive effects that Go Mate drinks provide when it comes to increasing mental performance and clarity, and to encourage a more balanced approach to energy within the gaming community. Partnering with Challengermode on the Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 tournament in conjunction with our own official launch is the perfect time for us to start re-shaping the narrative around energy drinks in the esports world”

Warzone 2.0 launch day esports tournaments mark an expansion in how Go Mate and Challengermode work together, with tournaments and events for League of Legends, Rocket League and Valorant also available on the platform via Go Mate’s dedicated Space. This partnership builds on previous work that Go Mate has done in the esports scene with Danish team Astralis and Argentinian team KRU earlier in 2022.

Esportes Gaming Brasil, the owner of Onabet and Esportes da Sorte, is making its debut at the 58th Parintins Folklore Festival with an interactive project that blends cultural promotion, economic development, and social responsibility.

The brand becomes the first regulated betting operator to offer institutional support to the event, which welcomes around 120,000 visitors and generates BRL 184 million in local economic activity, according to the Amazonas State Government.

This cultural commitment comes on the back of Esportes Gaming Brasil sponsoring 31 São João festivals during June in 27 cities across the Northeast and Southeast regions. This initiative strengthens the brand’s strategy of connecting with the public through the appreciation of Brazilian cultural expressions.

Esportes da Sorte’s focus was creating memorable experiences as each event featured scenography by Pernambucan artist Perron Ramos. Another notable element was the Vila Junina (June Village), a themed area blending traditional elements with interactive experiences. Classic games such as Pescaria da Sorte (Fishing of Fortune), Barraca do Beijo (Kissing Booth), and Argola da Sorte (Ring Toss) bring nostalgia to the festivities.

For the three-day Parintins Folklore Festival starting today, the brand will be energising Parintins with a series of experiences celebrating local culture. These include a panoramic lounge with a special view of the Bumbódromo, the Truck da Sorte — a space combining karaoke and free hydration — as well as a Social Arena installed in the Garantido and Caprichoso neighborhoods, featuring artistic performances, rest areas, free water distribution, and Instagram-worthy spots. Festivalgoers will also be able to get their hands on custom giveaways throughout the festival. All elements of the visual project are inspired by Amazonian art. The graphics feature illustrations by Curumiz, a Parintins-based duo formed by Alziney Pereira and Kemerson Freitas.

Sofia Aldin, CMO of Esportes Gaming Brasil, the group behind the brand commented: “Esportes Gaming Brasil cares passionately about regional values and strengthening Brazilian popular culture. It’s more than simply showcasing our brand, we want to create value for the people who live for events like the Parintins Folklore Festival and the São João festivals. Being part of these events backs our strategy of supporting traditions that drive local economies and celebrate regional identities.”

Red Bull Home Ground, the pro VALORANT invitational, is set to make its return with a blockbuster fifth edition, bringing together the world’s top teams to New York City, for one of the most exciting showcases in the esports calendar. From November 13–16, the iconic Hammerstein Ballroom at the Manhattan Center will host four electrifying days of competition, as global giants and rising stars fight to claim the title of 2025 off-season champions.

This year, Red Bull Home Ground will feature a stacked lineup of elite contenders. Returning champions T1 are ready to defend their crown, joined by two-time VCT Global Event winners Fnatic and fan-favourites G2 Esports, Sentinels, and ZETA DIVISION. Joining these giants will be the two top teams who earn their place through the Play-In Stage and an additional team to be revealed – a gauntlet of global qualifiers open to all in India, USA, Spain, Turkey, Chile, Egypt, Belgium, Germany, South Africa, Netherlands, Japan, and EMEA qualifiers, giving players around the world the chance to earn a spot to go against the best-of-the-best on the main stage. The final main stage slot will be revealed at a later date.

For the first time, the Red Bull Home Ground World Final will be hosted in the United States, taking place at the legendary Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan. Known for its grand Beaux-Arts architecture and storied history hosting icons like The Grateful Dead and Guns N’ Roses, the venue offers a perfect blend of classic New York legacy and modern spectacle for this high-stakes tournament.

At last year’s Red Bull Home Ground in Berlin, fans were treated to an unforgettable grand final as T1 stormed to victory over Cloud9, clinching the championship title with a dominant 3-1 series. With every edition, Red Bull Home Ground has elevated the VALORANT off-season calendar, known for its fast-paced format, jaw-dropping plays, and international flair. Red Bull Home Ground continues to be a staple tournament for pro teams looking to compete against the best competition and for fans ready to witness thrilling match-ups.
