Go Mate Partners with Challengermode to Host Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 Launch Day Esports Tournaments
Natural smart drinks company Go Mate has partnered with international esports platform Challengermode for a series of launch day esports tournaments for Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0. This partnership builds on the existing work that Challengermode has done with Go Mate to promote its healthy energy drink alternatives to an international audience of grassroots esports competitors.
Coinciding with the release of Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0, Go Mate will officially be launching its line of all-natural smart drinks aimed at the gaming and esports community. Starting the day after the game drops, aspiring esports hopefuls around the world will be able to compete in Warzone 2.0 for real money prizes provided by Go Mate. Weekly duos tournaments will run from November 16th onwards – with Go Mate being the first brand to provide Warzone 2.0 tournament gameplay on the Challengermode platform.
Healthy All-Natural Smart Drink for Gamers
Go Mate is a 100% natural no-added sugar drinks company that allows consumers sustained energy and mental focus to boost in-game performance, as well as to help them wind down and recharge. Rich in antioxidants and nutrients, Go Mate’s “Awake” and “Relax” drinks are designed to improve cognition and physical performance. Above all, Go Mate aims to reshape how the esports space connects with the drinks industry.
Phil Hubner, CBDO of Challengermode said: “We are incredibly excited to be working with Go Mate on the first Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0 tournament on the Challengermode platform. We see Go Mate’s work in encouraging healthy drinks alternatives and healthy approaches to play in the esports space as a positive for players. We think there is huge potential for Go Mate to redefine how players approach drinks that level up their gameplay in a healthier way, and we are pleased that we have been able to help them in reaching the competitive gaming audience at large in an authentic way.”
Frank Mertens, Co-Founder of Go Mate Drinks: “Challengermode has been super helpful for us to connect with audiences in the esports space in a way that resonates with them. We are glad to be working with them to spread the message of the positive effects that Go Mate drinks provide when it comes to increasing mental performance and clarity, and to encourage a more balanced approach to energy within the gaming community. Partnering with Challengermode on the Call of Duty Warzone 2.0 tournament in conjunction with our own official launch is the perfect time for us to start re-shaping the narrative around energy drinks in the esports world”
Warzone 2.0 launch day esports tournaments mark an expansion in how Go Mate and Challengermode work together, with tournaments and events for League of Legends, Rocket League and Valorant also available on the platform via Go Mate’s dedicated Space. This partnership builds on previous work that Go Mate has done in the esports scene with Danish team Astralis and Argentinian team KRU earlier in 2022.

Eagerly anticipated release now confirmed following a highly successful exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive
Play’n GO has today announced the official US release of its hit title Colt Lightning Firestorm, following a three-week period of exclusivity with Rush Street Interactive brands BetRivers and SugarHouse.
Colt Lightning Firestorm was released in Europe and other jurisdictions in May 2024, and its release in the US comes with much fanfare following the game’s rave reviews in its short exclusivity period. The game is a sequel to the wildly popular Colt Lightning game which was released early last year, and indications at this stage suggest that this sequel may prove even more successful.
This announcement sees Colt Lightning Firestorm available to players in each state and operator with whom Play’n GO is licensed. Play’n GO first entered the online casino market in the US in 2022, and has reiterated its commitment to becoming active in every regulated market around the world.
Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer at Play’n GO said: “We’re excited to unveil Colt Lightning Firestorm to the wider online casino gaming community in the US, and have been very pleased to see its strong performance during its exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive. We had high hopes for the game following the success of its predecessor, and we’re confident that these robust results will continue now that the game is available to an even bigger audience.”
Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced plans to host two popular esports events in Singapore in 2024 and 2025.

Over the coming 18 months, Singapore will become a major hub for esports in Southeast Asia, and with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board, we look forward to delivering unforgettable experiences for fans while helping to build a thriving esports ecosystem in the region. Bringing the first BLAST arena event to Singapore is an exciting first step in this journey. The World Final will see the world’s best Counter-Strike players and teams fighting for a $1,000,000 total prize pool.”
Ms Ong Ling Lee, Executive Director, Sports and Wellness, Singapore Tourism Board, said, “We are excited to host the BLAST Premier World Final and the BLAST Dota Slam in Singapore. The Counter-Strike event marks the first BLAST-branded event in Southeast Asia and the inaugural Counter-Strike tournament series in the region, solidifying Singapore’s position as a world-class esports destination. We are confident that the international participants and their legions of fans will have a memorable experience in Singapore, immersing themselves in the diverse and dynamic offerings of our city.”
