ZenSports to Host eSports Tournament; Launches Additional eSports Titles for Betting


ZenSports is announcing more for eSports bettors and enthusiasts with the launch of its first-ever eSports soccer tournament that it will be hosting next month, along with more eSports titles for betting within its peer-to-peer sports betting marketplace. The eSports tournament being hosted by ZenSports will be held on Aug. 15, 2020, with up to 64 players competing in a head-to-head, double-elimination bracket of one of the popular soccer game titles out there.
Gamers will have a chance to win up to 1,000,000 SPORTS tokens for first place (current value = $1,000), and there will be a total prize pool of 2,075,000 SPORTS tokens available across the top eight spots (current value = $2,075). There will also be a special skills competition in the middle of the tournament, with the winner of that receiving 250,000 SPORTS tokens (current value = $250). Several popular streamers, such as Themightyped, King CJ0 (DC United), and cisseSZN (Philadelphia Union) are expected to participate and compete for the prize pool. Playing in the tournament is currently by invite only.
According to ZenSports, Co-Founder & CEO Mark Thomas, “While there is some eSports user-generated content available via other channels, no one is combining the ability to register and manage an eSports tournament online, while offering betting and prize money in a clean, simple management tool like ZenSports is.”
The ZenSports mobile app will provide for the following technological capabilities during its first tournament:
- Tournament registration.
- Double-elimination bracket and head-to-head matchplay software management. Even those not playing in the tournament will be able to view match and tournament results in real-time.
- Betting and prize money management.
ZenSports will also be broadcasting the tournament on its Twitch channel and hopes to integrate a Twitch streaming feed into its app for future tournaments.
In addition to hosting its own eSports tournament next month, ZenSports has also added four new popular eSports game titles for betting within its app: FIFA, Dota 2, Overwatch, and Rainbow 6 Siege. Adding these new eSports titles will allow sports bettors to bet on all of the organized leagues and tournaments that fall under these four game titles, just like bettors can currently do within ZenSports for League of Legends and CS:GO.
“Given the high-interest level of betting on League of Legends and CS:GO by ZenSports customers the past few months, and the rising demand of eSports betting in general, it makes sense to continue to add more eSports titles for betting within our app”, said Thomas. “We believe that eSports betting is the fastest-growing segment within the sports betting industry, and we’re excited to continue helping the sport grow.”
Anyone interested in checking out the real-time results of this eSports tournament, in betting on eSports, or in betting on sports in general in a peer-to-peer way can download the ZenSports app, which is available in both the App Store (iOS) and the ZenSports website (Android).

Thunderkick launches debut crash game Heads Will Roll
Studio combines arcade and dice mechanics in ominous release
Independent slots studio Thunderkick has marked its first foray into a new product vertical with the release of Heads Will Roll.
The crash game, set in an eerie underground vault, tasks players with climbing a multiplier ladder by rolling a die with three possible outcomes: level-up, Fate Mode, or game over.
The level-up icon progresses the player to the next rung of the prize ladder, boosting the available cash out, Fate Mode replaces the standard die, increasing both the number of steps climbed and the chance of landing a game over symbol, which ends the betting round instantly.
Four difficulty variants each present a unique risk level, granting the user complete control over their experience. The likelihood of rolling a game over symbol increases with each difficulty level, as does the maximum multiplier, which ranges from 35x in Easy mode up to 2,400x in Brutal mode.
Once the player moves within one or two steps of the final multiplier, the All or Nothing round is triggered. Played on a red and gold die, the number of sides is determined by the active difficulty level, and there are just two possible outcomes: maximum win or game over.
Following a successful cashout, the multiplier which would have been reached if the player kept rolling is revealed, providing a unique opportunity for the development of game strategy.
Heads Will Roll is Thunderkick’s first venture outside of the slots vertical, demonstrating the studio’s commitment to diversifying its product portfolio in alignment with the latest industry trends.
Mike Collins, Game Product Owner at Thunderkick, said: “There has been a huge increase in the number of players opting for crash and arcade-style games in 2025, with the fast-paced betting rounds providing that instant gratification they are seeking.
“Heads Will Roll marks our first step outside of the world of slots, offering Thunderkick players a distinct, action-packed experience where the player has complete autonomy over how they play.
“While the gameplay moves away from our classic slots, visually, it feels reassuringly familiar, retaining the signature Thunderkick flair.”
