IRN-BRU Energy reveals its first-ever gaming set up complete with bespoke gaming chair – and it’s bound to get fans fizzing.

As the Scottish Esports League (SEL4) kicks off in Dundee, IRN-BRU Energy has created a super limited-edition gamer set up to help Scots up their game, as well as raising cash for gaming charity, SpecialEffect.

The BRU Energy gaming throne is key to the set up, designed in partnership with leading Scottish gaming chair manufacturer, GT Omega. The chair is unmissable in the iconic BRU colours and comes complete with a bespoke IRN-BRU Energy chilled can holder to keep gamers energised for epic sessions.

Elevating the gaming experience, the chair comes with a fully stocked IRN-BRU Energy mini-fridge as well as top of the range speakers, a gaming headset and accessories to help players focus when they’re in the zone.

With only a handful of these top-of-the-range set-ups available, there are two ways to get your hand on one for yourself. As sponsors of SEL4, IRN-BRU Energy are encouraging visitors to attend the event (18 – 21 November) to go head-to-head in a fastest lap tournament.

The brand is asking gamers to donate to the charity to be in with a chance of getting this epic set-up for their own home. Every donation to SpecialEffect will act as one entry into a prize draw, with the lucky winner being announced on the 2nd December.

Adrian Troy, Marketing Director at AG Barr, said: “IRN-BRU Energy helps gamers perform at their best, so it made sense for us to work alongside GT Omega to create the ultimate gaming chair, complete with everything a gamer might need to up their game.

“We can’t wait to welcome gaming fans to our racing simulator at SEL4 to battle it out for the chair and we’re also thrilled to support SpecialEffect through our charity raffle for the BRU throne and the all the gaming goodies. Let the games begin.”

Thunderpick, the leading esports betting platform, in partnership with Oddin.gg, a provider of end-to-end esports betting solutions, today announced the exclusive launch of BetPeek, a first-of-its-kind interactive esports viewing experience available only on Thunderpick.io.

While most esports streams today limit fans to static broadcast feeds and pre-selected camera angles, BetPeek flips the script. For the first time, viewers can control how they watch the action—transforming every match into a personalized, immersive event.

BetPeek’s key features include:

  • Follow Any Player – Switch instantly to the POV of any competitor on the server.

  • Dynamic Camera Control – Place the camera anywhere on the map for a unique vantage point.

  • X-Ray Vision – Unlock strategic insights by seeing what players can’t.

  • Play, Pause & Rewind – Revisit every clutch play with DVR-style controls.

  • Integrated Betting Tools – Access deeper context and analysis to inform smarter wagers.

“Traditional esports streams have barely evolved; they’re often one-size-fits-all broadcasts that leave fans wishing for more control,” said Kelly Sanders, Head of Strategy at Thunderpick. “BetPeek completely changes that. By putting fans in the driver’s seat, we’re delivering an esports experience that’s not just more engaging, but truly revolutionary for bettors and spectators alike.”

Why It Matters

Until now, esports fans had little choice beyond passively watching standard tournament streams or fragmented co-streams. BetPeek represents the next era: an interactive, on-demand, and bet-integrated platform unlike anything else in the industry. For bettors, this means unprecedented visibility into momentum shifts, rotations, and player form. For fans, it’s a chance to experience the match exactly how they want.
