We’re pleased to announce that Hotspawn has entered into a multi-year partnership with RankRush.live, a data and gamification services provider, to make following esports more interactive, insightful, and rewarding.
Through this collaboration, RankRush will supply Hotspawn with live match data, player and team stats, and tournament analytics. This data will power an all-new gamified experience on Hotspawn, including pick’ems, quizzes, and leaderboards, allowing fans to test their knowledge, make predictions, and earn rewards & recognition for their engagement.
Hotspawn will provide RankRush with a platform to refine and grow their gamification technology. Together, both teams are aiming to build a more connected esports community — one where fans don’t just watch matches, but participate in them.
The first phase of this partnership launches with Counter-Strike coverage this month, debuting during the Thunderpick World Championship. Powered by RankRush, global Hotspawn readers will enjoy live analytics and new interactive tools around major events, bringing them closer to the action than ever before.
“We’ve always believed that esports coverage should be as interactive as the games themselves,” said Sophie McCarthy, Editor-in-Chief at Hotspawn.“Working with RankRush allows us to bring fans deeper into the stories, stats, and moments that make esports special.”
“This partnership is all about empowering esports fans,” said Filip Kicurovski, Project Director at RankRush. “Hotspawn’s platform gives us the chance to create fun, rewarding experiences that go beyond data — we’re building ways for people to play, predict, and engage together.”
The collaboration between Hotspawn and RankRush marks the beginning of a shared vision to bridge esports content, technology, and community through innovation and play. Starting with the Thunderpick World Championship this month, fans can explore the new interactive features at hotspawn.com.
