Skillz Surpasses $2M in Awarded Mobile eSports Prizes

Real-money gaming company Skillz has announced new milestones and player demographics for its mobile eSports platform, which allows users to compete for real cash prizes in supported mobile games, in tournaments based on skill. These tournaments focus on player ability, rather than luck, and are therefore not restricted in the same way as gambling and luck-based systems. Since the beginning of the year, players have won more than $2 million in prizes across all Skillz-enabled games.

While console and PC-based competitions tend to be popular with a young, male-dominated player base, these mobile tournaments have proven quite popular with all varieties of players.
