Considered the “starting point” of 500Bros, but after many years of attachment, this Studio still has to regretfully bid farewell to CS: GO because of copyright issues.
Unlike moba games in the Vietnamese market, FPS is a rather picky game line, and especially old games like CS: GO, the number of gamers is even smaller.
Also because there are now many other FPS games that “sprout like mushrooms”, the position of CS: GO in the Vietnamese gaming village is also gradually shaken. Not only that, the fact that CS: GO tournaments often broadcast live at midnight makes the viewership lower and lower.
As a result, 500Bros – one of the long-standing studios in Vietnam that buys the copyright and broadcasts CS: GO tournaments has had to bid farewell to this game.
Founder and COO of 500Bros announced to stop broadcasting CS: GO.
“Stop broadcasting CS:GO ON 500BROS CHANNEL SYSTEM FROM OCTOBER 2022.
Dear Brothers,
It is estimated that it will have to be officially announced on the Fanpage system of 500Bros, but I have to write it down first so that everyone can update the information.
500Bros has been with CS: GO content for 6, 7 years so far and it is not an exaggeration when all 500Bros has now also comes from CS: GO.
But up to now, 500Bros is very sorry that it cannot continue to obtain ESL’s broadcasting rights in Vietnam to continue serving the audience. We also tried very hard but it was “impossible”, very very sorry to all of you. Therefore, all CS: GO production and commentary will be discontinued from October 2022, specifically October 2, 2022 after the end of ESL PRO LEAGUE.
You know, it’s not easy for the team to do CS: GO at 500Bros, it’s also 15-20 people to create content for the audience. ESL tournament content also accounts for 70-80% of production time. When I am in the current situation, I am also extremely confused about the next direction for 500Bros in this CS: GO segment and really do not know how to calculate it.
With the CS: GO team of 500Bros, the fact that I rotate you to other areas is very easy. 500Bros has a lot of work to do, but maybe, CS:GO will no longer be among those “lots of things.” – announced in the 500Bros fan group the discontinuation of CS:GO broadcasting.
According to many fans, CS: GO has become a “deadgame” in the Vietnamese market because it can’t compete with new names like Valorant, PUBG, PUBG Mobile, Free Fire, etc. Moreover, some fans are long-term fans. year said CS: GO has not found any sponsors for a long time, so 500Bros cannot afford to buy the broadcasting rights or continue to make content for this game.
