Over the past 16 months, Astralis has grown to become a major eSports brand, and we are continuously investing to develop new and unique content around the brand. This is something we will exploit further with eSports.com who has shown a great commitment to the partnership by contributing to the biggest ever partnership for both Astralis and RFRSH Entertainment.

It will be the future hub of exclusive eSports content with updates, tickets, tournaments and merchandise all in one place. We just started the platform and will see a lot of new features on eSports.com over the coming months. We decided to announce the partnership now, as we want to bring attention to the site and invite every fan of eSports, every player and every organization to be a part of the journey.
