The International Olympic Committee has voted for the creation of the first Olympic Esports Games, but what games will actually be included?
The winner of Tic Tac Bow at the Olympic Esports Series last year The International Olympic Committee has voted for the creation of the first Olympic Esports Games, only without the games people care about. While esports has been a fixture of the gaming landscape for years now, its path to being recognised as a sport by the Olympics has been a somewhat slow crawl. The first major step came with the creation of the Olympic Esports Series, which was first held in Singapore in June 2023.
It’s unclear though if this stance extends to fighting games like Street Fighter 6. Capcom’s fighter was part of a separate exhibition event during Olympic Esports Week last year, but it was omitted from the main Olympics Esports Series line-up. No one in the IOC seems willing to acknowledge that the games featured in last year’s event have little or no competitive community around them, with several being so obscure most people have never heard of them.
