Enthusiast Gaming and the NFL Announce Season 3 of ‘NFL Tuesday Night Gaming’
11 Juli 2024 - 1:00PM
Enthusiast Gaming Holdings Inc. (“Enthusiast Gaming” or the
“Company”) (TSX: EGLX), a leading gaming and media company, today
announced the continued partnership with the National Football
League (the “NFL”) for a third season of the popular video gaming
series, NFL Tuesday Night Gaming (“NFL TNG”), debuting in Q3 of
2024.
NFL Tuesday Night Gaming’s second season
generated major growth, totaling over 111 million total impressions
across all platforms, a 53% growth compared to the inaugural 2022
season. NFL TNG also worked with twice as many media sponsors,
growing from 11 in the inaugural season to over 24 throughout
Season Two. Media sponsors were integrated through a variety of
custom immersive content experiences such as Netflix’s ‘One Piece’
activation where creators debuted and played the ‘One Piece’-themed
custom Fortnite map while wearing straw hats as a nod to the show,
and NFL Family Game Night’s custom Lego Technic-themed episode that
featured a live Lego Master Builder on set with gaming creators,
NFL Athletes, and their families.
Season 3 of NFL Tuesday Night Gaming will
release a special episode on July 23, featuring content from the
upcoming NFL Flag Championships presented by Toyota, the world's
premiere youth flag football tournament, in Canton, Ohio. The
special flag-themed episode will air on July 23 on NFL
TNG's YouTube channel.
“The sports and gaming communities have become
even more interconnected since NFL TNG premiered two years ago,”
said Adrian Montgomery, Chairman and Interim CEO of Enthusiast
Gaming. “Our collaboration with the NFL showcases how two leaders
can come together to create the template for highly engaging user
experiences in a brand-safe environment, and we are thrilled to do
it again with the NFL for a third successful season. Having a
forward-thinking partner in the NFL opens up significant
opportunities to further enhance the fan experience and bring
additional operational efficiency.”
