The Titans series isn’t the first time that the two parties have joined forces to host events. In December 2020, Trovo selected Allied Esports to produce a series of mobile battle royale tournaments were $30,000 (~GBP21,580) in prize money was up for grabs.
Allen Chan, Senior Operations Manager at Trovo, also commented: “The best way to celebrate our first anniversary is to provide more opportunities to play, compete, win and share that experience with our community across the globe.
“With a variety of games to play and an engaging esports format, Trovo Titans provides something for everyone in the gaming community, and I look forward to watching this amazing entertainment platform grow all year long.”
Esports Insider says: Considering Allied Esports and Trovo’s previous collaboration, it doesn’t come as a surprise to see the two parties join forces on a new project. With multiple grassroots esports tournaments appearing in recent months, it will be interesting to see how the Titans programme stands out in what is an incredibly competitive area of the industry.
