Social Chain’s GameByte pens three-year deal with Revolution Esports


The partnership will see GameByte become Revolution Esports’ official social media partner
GameByte, hero gaming brand of the agency Social Chain, has signed a three-year partnership with Revolution Esports as its exclusive social media partner. It will also become one of five UK Esports Hubs where Revolution talent can compete and train.
Revolution Esports produces major events and tournaments and manages up and coming esports talent. The partnership will see GameByte’s involvement in the grassroots development of that talent across the UK.
Esports has erupted into the mainstream as a central form of entertainment in recent years. The role of social media channels has helped to push it from a subset of sports culture to an industry in its own right – expected to generate $1194.8 million in 2021.
In addition to hosting and training talent, as part of the hub network, Social Chain and GameByte will be able to provide promising esports players with a platform to bolster their online presence through GameByte’s own mammoth digital channels.
GameByte itself has an audience of more than 6.5 million gamers across social and recently launched its own online store, becoming the first gaming publisher in the UK to tackle ecommerce.
Revolution Esports CEO and founder Adam Johnson said: “We have long known there is an abundance of untapped talent within esports and gaming, however, the identification and development of talent hasn’t been a fundamental part of the industry. This is where Social Chain and GameByte’s social and brand building expertise can change that equation.”
GameByte plans to cultivate future esports professionals’ growth by providing them access to equipment through the hub, building their personal brands on social, and providing access to commercial relationships and long-term partnerships through its own client base.
Social Chain’s head of gaming, Rich White, said: “Much like in traditional sports, grassroots development of talent is vital to the long-term success of esports.
“A huge part of this relies on access to high-end equipment which we will be providing through our hub in Manchester. GameByte will now be an instrumental part of cultivating esports talent within the UK thanks to our partnership with Revolution Esports.”
With the deal also comes the opportunity for GameByte and parent company Social Chain capitalise on the commercial opportunities presented by esports tournaments and events.
Social Chain business development director Sam Barrett said: “We’re leaning into esports in an aggressive and strategic way. Major esports events are a core part of our partnership, which hold huge sponsorship potential. Plus we’ll be able to create vast amounts of content through this to further grow our social and editorial channels.”
Johnson added: “Working alongside GameByte and Social Chain is so exciting for all involved. This partnership enables us to really elevate our offering to the esports infrastructure and provide the best possible platform for talented individuals to flourish in the industry.”
Revolution Esports recently announced additional partnerships with SAF and Ace Of Spades. The company also plans to open four further Esports hubs across Europe in 2022, including a hub in Munich which will replicate its UK model.

ACR POKER’S NEXT HIGH STAKES ADVENTURE TAKES PLAYERS TO MONTENEGRO FOR PRESTIGIOUS SUPER HIGH ROLLER SERIES
Two $110,000+ Montenegro packages available during ACR Poker’s Main Satellite on Sunday, April 27th
The next chapter of ACR Poker’s High Stakes Adventure is taking shape. Two players are set to win their way to stunning Montenegro in Southeast Europe to compete against top poker pros and high stakes legends for huge prizes during the prestigious Super High Roller Series, scheduled for May 13th to 27th.
Through ACR Poker’s Main Satellite on Sunday, April 27th at 2:05pm ET, the High Stakes Adventure: Montenegro is guaranteeing two all-inclusive packages, each covering $110,000 in tournament buy-ins / entry fees, plus added business-class airfare, and a 5-night stay at the luxurious Maestral Resort & Casino.
“The High Stakes Adventure is all about creating opportunities for players to escape the ordinary and play alongside poker’s elite in incredible destinations,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “I can still feel the energy from my deep run in Montenegro last year, and I’ve got a good feeling this event is going to be just as unforgettable. If you missed your chance to win a South Korea package earlier this year, this is your chance to get in the game.”
Moneymaker is no stranger to the high-stakes scene in Montenegro, having won last year’s Triton Poker Super High Roller Series $25,000 buy-in event for $903,000. Meanwhile, fellow ACR Pro Nacho Barbero also made waves this year during the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju, finishing 7th in the $100,000 buy-in Main Event, earning $946,000, plus cashing in four other events.
The High Stakes Adventure: Montenegro package winners will have the flexibility to split their $110,000 buy-in budget across multiple events or go all-in on a single high-stakes tourney. Off the felt, players can look forward to exploring Montenegro’s rich history, stunning landscapes and vibrant culture.
This latest satellite follows the success of ACR Poker’s High Stakes Adventure: South Korea earlier this year, where two $110,000 packages were awarded to players for the Super High Roller Series Jeju. Players looking to follow in their footsteps and compete for the Montenegro packages can buy into the Main Satellite for $2,650 or qualify for less through satellites running on ACR Poker this month.
