Immutable X, the leading Layer 2 scaling solution for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on Ethereum, announced a partnership with ESL Gaming, the world’s leading esports company, in a bid to power carbon neutral and gas free trading of ESL Pro Tour NFTs on its upcoming esports platform.

ESL Gaming has been shaping the esports industry since its foundation in 2000 and leading innovation in the space.

Their mission is to create a world where anybody can be somebody. While they have provided life-changing opportunities through their legendary esports leagues and tournaments, the company plans to evolve their audiences’ experience by developing NFTs through Immutable X.

ESL Gaming will introduce a robust NFT platform enabling esports enthusiasts and supporters around the world to buy, sell, and exchange NFT assets on ESL Pro Tour. The core partnership with Immutable X will ensure ESL is provided with the needed scaling infrastructure, and esports fans can access carbon neutral and gas free minting and trading of NFTs. Plus, users are able to trade with their mind at ease since Immutable X’s hyper-secure protocol directly inherits the Layer 1 security of Ethereum.

“The Immutable team has gaming in their DNA and we share the same vision for the future of NFTs. In combination with a deep passion for the community, this is the only way to forge meaningful innovation in the space,”

says Bernhard Mogk, SVP Global Business Development at ESL Gaming.
