Akihabara News (Tokyo) — PSG eSports is competing in the Japan’s Rainbow Six Siege League for the spring season, bringing the firepower of a highly successful international outfit into domestic Japanese competition.
The new PSG team debuted on March 26, and it is composed of the entirety of the former Yoshimoto Gaming Lamy lineup
Paris Saint-Germain, more recognizable by its acronym PSG, is a professional football club with its headquarters located in Paris, France. The club competes in the top division of French football and is very successful.
The overwhelming success and brand recognizability of PSG has prompted it to expand into other areas, one of which is the esports market, resulting in the launch of the PSG eSports division in 2016.
PSG has fielded several rosters in different countries, playing a number of popular esports titles, including a Thai roster in Arena of Valor, a Japanese and Singaporean duo in Brawl Stars, and a Chinese-French roster in FIFA.
Additionally, PSG’s partnership with Hong Kong esports organization Talon eSports fostered a League of Legends squad that consistently dominates the Taiwanese league and makes regular appearances in international tournaments.
Moreover, LGD, a Chinese esports organization, formed a joint venture with PSG to create PSG.LGD for Dota 2. Like its League of Legends roster, its Dota 2 team also regularly competes at a high level.
