PlayVS launches the PlayVS College League, aiming to trans collegiate esports
PCL aims to provide college gamers with a competitive platform that offers flexibility and inclusivity. It does not have any per-seat fees or team limits and students can compete in 17 titles from top publishers.
The league includes students from schools including Alvernia University, Columbia College, Cumberland University, Fisher College, Harrisburg University, Rochester Institute of Technology, San Jose State University, Stony Brook University, Syracuse University, the University of Akron, the University of Maryland, the University of South Florida, and Virginia Tech.
“This is more than just the launch of a league – it’s about setting a new standard for collegiate esports,” explains Jon Chapman, CEO at PlayVS. “By creating a unified competitive pipeline from middle school to college, we’re powering gameplay and helping shape gamers’ futures. The PCL gives students an opportunity to grow, lead, and build a community, while offering schools a platform that rivals the professionalism and structure of traditional athletics.”
Earlier this year, PlayVS announced plans to “usher in a new era for competitive gaming” with the acquisition of Generation Esports and Playfly College Esports. PlayVS will integrate Generation Esports and Playfly College Esports into its leading amateur esports platform, creating a single platform for elementary, middle, high school, and college programs.
