G2 Esports, the most entertaining esports organisation in the world, has launched a ground-breaking collaboration with Jägermeister, marking the spirit brand’s first step into the world of gaming.

As a leading entertainment brand, G2’s partnership with Jägermeister was a no-brainer. Sharing a breadth of core values, the brands will combine their authenticity, creativity and shared love for pop culture references to expand beyond its core product offering. Jägermeister’s mission is to “enable the best nights of your life – today and tomorrow”. The partnership will help awaken the magic of esports to a new audience, while giving G2 the chance to celebrate its successes bigger and better than ever before. This partnership will see both brands create magical moments for esports fans across the globe while truly turning G2’s successes into the best nights on and off the server.

A partnership that puts the fans at its very core, G2 will look to enhance the experience for members of the G2 Army by taking community activities to the next level. This includes, elevating and enabling great nights for gaming enthusiasts, rewarding fans and giving them access to special moments and their favourite talents.

And the brands are wasting no time, kicking off the announcement with a Jägermeister x G2 Party on the 12th of May in London.

The event will take place at the award-winning bar, 26 Leake Street, with a full day of tailored activities for fans. Throughout the day, there will be an opportunity to interact with the staff. Fans can play games in G2 gaming booths, whilst enjoying live music from the likes of headline act and North London’s climbing rap riser, JBEE and more!

As part of this partnership, the brands will team up to create a new and exciting content series to be released later in the year. Fans also will have the opportunity to buy limited-edition apparel where the brands will blend their innovative design experience to create unique pieces.

Sabrina Ratih, COO of G2 Esports comments: “We are thrilled to be announcing this partnership and to lead Jägermeister’s first venture into the world of gaming. Jägermeister is a giant and iconic brand that has nurtured brand love far beyond the product. Seeing us jointly work on creating better experiences for our fans and celebrating the best nights in esports is a dream come true for everyone at G2 and we cannot wait for our fans to see what we’ve got coming up.”

Sven Schindler, Head of Global Brand & Digital at Jägermeister SE comments: “We are excited to be announcing our partnership with G2 Esports, a powerful collaboration that marries our iconic brand with the dynamic world of competitive gaming. Jägermeister brings you the best nights of your life today and tomorrow, while G2 Esports brings people together for joyful and celebratory moments.

Meanwhile, in the entertainment space, G2 marked its latest expansion with the release of its latest alt-rock single ‘Detonate’.

GRID, an in-game data infrastructure platform trusted by the leading game publishers and sportsbooks, has unveiled GRID Insights — a new AI-driven product delivering real-time, predictive context to live esports broadcasts and betting experiences.

GRID Insights transforms raw gameplay data into dynamic, predictive insights in milliseconds — surfacing real-time narratives like player streaks, weapon stats and record chases, all tailored to the stream’s brand and audience.

“With GRID Insights, we’re building the storytelling engine of live esports, powered entirely by official data. We use official in-game data and real-time pipelines to generate predictions, contextual stats, and behavioral patterns that previously required an analyst team. Now it’s automated and scalable, enabling our partners to create more immersive, informative, and engaging experiences that today’s digital-native audiences expect,” said Moritz Maurer, CEO of GRID.

Thanks to GRID’s deep partnerships with top game publishers and tournament organisers, Insights is built on structured, official data, enhanced by large language models (LLMs) and available via plug-and-play SDKs or APIs. The product supports major esports titles including CS2, Dota 2, League of Legends and VALORANT, with full customisation across branding and output formats.

GRID Insights made its live debut during the Champion of Champions Tour Season 3 (CS2), with broader adoption already underway. Among early adopters is the European Pro League (EPL), now integrating GRID Insights into its tournament broadcasts.

“GRID Insights is a game-changer for how fans engage with the action. At EPL, we’re always looking for new ways to elevate the viewer experience—and with GRID Insights, the instant, story-driven context keeps fans both informed and immersed. Whether you’re a dedicated follower or a casual viewer, it makes every moment more exciting,” said Oleksii Krasnikov, CEO of EPL.
