Bet on Overwatch League 2025

As one of the first professional esport leagues, Overwatch League (also known as OWL) represents teams from around the globe. Blizzard Entertainment launched the league in 2018 with 12 teams. After expanding to 20 teams a year later, the league began a steady ascent, fueled by the popularity of Overwatch, an esports game with 50 million players in 2018.

Player’s salaries began at $50,000 for minimum 1-year contract terms, including retirement, health insurance, housing, and practice venues for players. Teams distributed a minimum of 50 percent of revenue to the players in the form of bonuses. In the first season, the leagues champions received a $1 million minimum bonus. According to reports, Blizzard management spoke with Wes Edens, the co-owner for the Milwaukee Bucks about operating a Chicago-based team to participate in a list of esports tournaments. However, this agreement was not realized.
