The work

In July and August 2025, the second ever Esports World Cup took place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia – a celebration of the competitive side of gaming, featuring some of the globe’s most elite pros and teams.

I worked with the team behind the huge event to provide copywriting services throughout the event.

For the Esports World Cup Foundation, I worked with the PR team to provide copywriting services across a wide range of press releases, email newsletters, and LinkedIn posts throughout the duration of the event – which lasted seven weeks.

Many of these press releases were sent out to journalists just mere minutes after a game’s final had concluded, and as a result, I was required to edit, proofread, fact check and ensure clarity across each press release I was assigned with speed and dexterity.

In a nutshell:

  • Copywriting services for press releases across a number of titles and games
  • Editing, proofreading, and fact checking on multiple newsletters sent out throughout the event
  • Working as part of a tight-knit team to firm and fast deadlines across multiple time zones
