QUEST Esports, one of the top gaming organisations in the Middle East and North Africa, continues its trailblazing journey of enabling talent in a variety of esports disciplines, serving a rapidly expanding community and helping content creators reach a global audience.
Established in 2019, QUEST has quickly joined the elite esports domain by offering turn-key solutions for media creation, managing professional esports players, organising and managing online and LAN events, and various other offerings.
Headquartered in Doha, Qatar, and with a talented, experienced team, the esports industry pioneer has organised or managed at least five significant online league competitions and LAN tournaments, including Fortnite, CS: GO, PUBG Mobile, Dota 2, and FIFA.
Among its events, it hosted the EA Sports FIFA 22 Champions Cup Powered by Ooredoo Nation, which was not only the first LAN tournament to take place in the Arabian Gulf post-pandemic, but also the first esports competition to be televised in the metaverse. Around 16 top-ranked players from around the world gathered to battle it out for a prize pool of $50,000 in front of more than 4,000 live spectators.
With its goal of growing the region’s esports talent, QUEST recently made a strategic partnership with Ooredoo Qatar, a key innovator in digital transformation, which led to both the launch of the esports platform Ooredoo Nation – Gamers’ Land and the creation of the Ooredoo Thunders esports team.
Gamers’ Land is a community that transcends geographical boundaries, continues to grow, invents, innovates, creates, evolves, and ultimately raises the level of gaming in the region. The Ooredoo Thunders are now one of the most successful esports teams in the region.
QUEST Esports also operates in Lebanon and Turkey, with plans to expand further across the wider Mena region, starting with Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. While its expansion plans are ambitious, it has already shown its commitment by establishing the QUEST Gaming House in Turkiye.
A beautiful live-in facility with a private garden, it acts as a boot camp for its esports teams as players prepare for global tournaments. Living and training on-site alongside coaches and managers, players can benefit from the latest gaming technology and equipment – and ensure the best possible preparations.
