Esports event brand DreamHack has announced that it has renewed its partnership with streaming service Twitch "as part of a multi-year deal," which marks DreamHack and Twitch's 10-year anniversary as well.
DreamHack was one of the first tournaments to team up with Twitch, and moving forward fans can watch all DreamHack esports content live on the platform, including everything from DreamHack Opens to Corsair DreamLeagues, all of which will be broadcasted over 13 languages. What's more is that Twitch will be the head partner for DreamHack Tours, Austin, Montreal, and Atlanta.
"DreamHack and Twitch share many things in common, including a love and commitment to our collective esports community. This is what makes this partnership exciting every time we renew it," said Marcus Lindmark, CEO of DreamHack. "The last 10 years have been amazing, but the coming years are even more exciting as esports continues to grow at a rapid pace."
"Over the last decade, DreamHack has hosted numerous massive events that have played an important role in growing the competitive gaming scene," said Justin Dellario, Head of Esports Programs at Twitch. "By letting Twitch shine our global spotlight on these amazing competitions and festivals, it has helped accelerate the industry's growth even more to the delight of our fans around the world."
