“Bringing our inclusive gaming events to more people, from casual games to top tournament play, is a joy,” said Daniel Chlebowczyk, Strategic Director at CouchWarriors.
“With Cospendium, we have a rare opportunity to broaden the pop culture gaming experience. The CouchWarriors Gaming Zone will be amazing for new fans and old, whether learning to play, showing your skills or checking out cool new games.”

Esports analytics platform NewZoo predicts that the number of casual viewers of competitive gameplay will balloon to 307 million.
“We’re honoured to team up with one of the country’s finest Esports and gaming institutions for these tournaments,” said Philip Rainford, director of Cospendium.
“CouchWarriors’ expertise will ensure that the Gaming Zone tournaments are smooth and satisfying experiences for game lovers of all ages. There’ll also be great food on offer and plenty of gaming and pop-culture entertainment for everyone while waiting for their matches.”
