Electronic Sports, or eSports for short.
Fighting games, FPS, TPS, puzzle games, TCGs, MOBAs, racing games, sports games, etc... e-sports competitions are taking place in a truly wide variety of game genres.
Walking is also a great sport, so Pokémon GO and Dragon Quest Walk can also be considered e-sports in some aspects.
The flexibility of e-sports to collaborate with a wide range of genres, not just within games, is one of its charms, but it seems that an event with a curious combination will be held.
The world's first event combining e-sports and trash pickup! eSports GOMI - Let's erase trash and puyos! 〜The event will be held at the " eSports GOMI" in Tokyo, Japan.
Let's pick up trash! Let's make Puyo disappear!
eSpo GOMI - Let's make trash and Puyos disappear! 〜is an event organized by Life Reversal Gaming, a company that challenges to create new value through games, as a member of the eSpo GOMI Organizing Committee, which is working together with the Japan Sports GOMI Federation andYokohama OneMM.
You may wonder what we mean when you hear that this is the world's first event that combines e-sports and trash pickup, but it is an event that aims to do both trash pickup and e-sports!
The first half of " Spo-GOMI," which is based on the concept of "garbage pickup is a sport," will be held, followed by a " Puyopuyo eSports " game match and the weighing and tallying of the results from the second half of "Spo-GOMI.
As the name of the event suggests, the event will be held under the title of "Let's Erase Trash and Puyopuyo! 〜As the name "eSpo GOMI" suggests, let's make the city clean by "G aming Garbage Picking " to erase both "Garbage" and "Puyo "!
The "eSpo GOMI - Let's Erase Garbage and Puyo! 〜will be held on Saturday, April 17, 2021! It will be held at ZOU-NO-HANA Terrace in Yokohama!
