Became a sponsor of Orix Buffaloes (eBASEBALL Pro League team)
2020.12.01
Beyond Co., Ltd. has signed a sponsorship agreement with the Orix Buffaloes (eBASEBALL Pro League team).
Along with this, the Beyond logo will be displayed on the chest of the uniforms worn by players.
Beyond also created the team's "eBASEBALL Pro League Orix Buffaloes Support Site."
What is eBASEBALL Pro League?
“eBASEBALL Pro League” is a professional baseball e-sports league that uses “eBASEBALL Powerful Professional Baseball” and will start on Saturday, December 5th.
Twelve teams form teams of four players, and, like professional baseball, they are divided into the Central League and Pacific League, competing to be the best in Japan.
The "eBASEBALL Pro League Orix Buffaloes Support Site" produced by Beyond is the first eBASEBALL Pro League support site for 12 teams, and supports Orix Buffaloes players.
How I became a sponsor
As opportunities to meet face-to-face with people are decreasing due to the effects of the new coronavirus infection, demand for e-sports is increasing as a form of entertainment that allows people to connect with people around the world online from the comfort of their own homes.
In addition, in 2019, "professional e-sports player" was ranked second as the job that middle school boys want to be in the future, and its popularity is increasing year by year.
Our company builds and operates game servers and develops game APIs, and while supporting the game industry from behind the scenes, we want to contribute to the development of esports. Based on this idea, we became a sponsor of the eBASEBALL Pro League Orix Buffaloes, which is based in Osaka, and we also cooperated in the creation of a support site.
