Back in February this year, Girl Gamer hosted the world’s only Esports Festival in Dubai. The event was huge and featured special guest judges including Alodia Gosiengfiao and Sumi Cosplay.
Now they have provided the goods with a four part documentary movie based on girl gamers. Girl Gamers Now is Our Time is split into four parts (aptly called ‘levels’) and tells the stories of girl gamers from across the world.
‘Level 1’ tells the story of the first ever Girl Gamer Esports Festival in 2017, in Macau, China. The festival occurred just a week after a level typhoon had hit Macau. The documentary shows how the competitors fought against physical and mental challenges to ensure that they could compete. ‘Level 2’ follows the Esports Festival set in Portugal over the summer of 2018.
‘Level 3’ is a documentary movie “focused on showcasing how women’s competitiveness in esports is evolving. Set in Dubai, the movie follows competitors from the GG qualifiers at the action-packed Girl Gamer Esports Festival held at the Meydan GrandStand”. (https://morrisvillecathospital.com/) The ‘levels’ are all around the half an hour time-frame, making them very watchable and easy to digest.
Levels 1, 2 and 3 are all currently available on the GIRLGAMER Esports Festival YouTube, with Level 4 expected to premier soon.
Whether you’re into gaming or haven’t ventured into esports yet, you are sure to find these girl gamers super inspiring!
