The idea of bringing more mobile games into eSports is a long-developing one and according to today's press release, Guns of Boom Season Two will see the game reach one of ESL's big boy stages for the first time. Coming to light in February 2019 at IEM Expo in Katowice, the newly developed 'Gods of Boom' is a stadium-level series of tournaments and will mark a major milestone in mobile gaming.

"I was competing in esports nearly 20 years ago, and have been a fan of competitive gaming ever since," said Anatoly Ropotov, CEO of Game Insight. "To bring Guns of Boom to IEM Expo, the biggest esports trade show out there, feels like something of a homecoming. I can't imagine a better place to debut our Gods of Boom tournament series."

Season Two will also see the introduction of two new territories in Guns of Boom Pro League, Latin America and Southeast Asia. You can catch up on the Season One Finals if you missed it right here (and above).
