Critical Force CEO Talks eSports Growth and Platform Development
According to Veli-Pekka Piirainen, who founded Critical Force in 2012, the key to its growth has been patience. He tells GamesIndustry.biz that "mobile will become more and more important to esports"
Critical Force is now working to improve the quality of the spectator experience, allowing users to broadcast more easily and have more control over where in-game cameras are placed. The Esports scene has grown significantly since the company was founded in 2014, but Piirainen believes that 2019 will be an inflection point for an already burgeoning industry - and for mobile esports in particular. When that happens, Critical Ops will be positioned to take full advantage.
"I'm confident that mobile esports will become more and more important, and bigger and bigger," Piirainen said. "There's a new generation of gamers growing up who started playing with phones and tablets. It's their device, and they want to play with those devices, and they want to see esports in the future... It's quite a natural progression.
