First reported by the folk over at VGC, qualification for the Olympic Esports 2023 Series has now begun.
Announced by the Internal Olympics Committee, the 2023 series of events will feature nine different virtual sports to participate in, all in collaboration with International Federations and game publishers.
Qualification for the Olympic Esports 2023 starts from today, with both professional and amateur players of each game globally being invited to take part. Qualification concludes on 15 May 2023, with the finals going ahead on 23-25 June 2023 in Singapore.
The nine games that’ll be featured at the Olympic Esports this year all coincide with a sport, and these are as follows:
- Archery – Tic Tac Bow
- Baseball – eBaseball: Power Pros
- Chess – Chess.com
- Cycling – Zwift
- Dance – Just Dance 2023
- Motor Sport – Gran Turismo 7
- Sailing – Virtual Regatta
- Taekwondo – Virtual Taekwondo
- Tennis – Tennis: Clash
For each event, qualification starts on varying dates, and will follow a different process depending on the game involved.
What we do already know in regard to the Gran Turismo 7 event is that an online time trial will be available in mid-April. Those who are the fastest to complete this particular track will then be invited to compete at the finals in Singapore.
