wTVision scales Riot Games partnership for League of Legends Brazilian Circuit

This partnership signals the deepening convergence between professional broadcast technology and competitive gaming. By deploying Studio CG, Riot Games brings high-tier broadcast automation—common in traditional sports—to the eSports sector, addressing the demand for data-rich and interactive viewing experiences. For the ecosystem, this move validates the shift toward unified production stacks that handle both live gameplay and social engagement on a single interface. Watch for Riot Games' possible expansion of this technical framework to other regional circuits like Mexico or South Korea, matching the rising viewership benchmarks in Latin American markets.

The collaboration comes as Brazilian eSports viewership reaches historic highs; following the initial partnership, the 2026 CBLOL Cup Finals drew 443,217 peak concurrent viewers, per Sheep Esports in March 2026. This growth is supported by Riot Games' concentration of professional play in its dedicated São Paulo arena to ensure production consistency. wTVision has aggressively expanded its footprint in this space, recently integrating its R³ Engine with Matrox Video hardware to support high-performance 3D graphics and virtual advertising, according to Panorama Audiovisual in April 2026. Further cementing its position in the region, wTVision established a distribution alliance with Adistec in July 2025 to scale its real-time graphics and playout automation across the Americas. These technical improvements align with broader 2026 industry trends where real-time interactivity and data-driven overlays are shifting from optional upgrades to foundational infrastructure for live streaming, as reported by Streaming Media Global in October 2025.
