The group of older gamers established the Esports team, the youngest member is also 66 years old

Mentioned Esports or e-sports, we will definitely think of young players with magical hand gestures. Although the number of elderly gamers in the world is increasing, but Esports is still a playground dominated by young people, very few people intend to participate in professional competitions when they are older.​

​

However, that has changed when recently an all-elderly Esports team was officially established in Japan. NHK website reported, this team is called 黑熊 (Black Bear), with the participation of 8 old men with an average age of 69 years old, of which the oldest is 73 years old and the youngest is 66 years old. .

It is known that the old men all have the same passion for Fortnite – game title Battle Royale storming in European countries, this will also be the direction that Black Bear will focus on developing in the future. The grandparents are all in good mental and physical condition, and they are currently actively training to participate in professional Fortnite tournaments.​

Black Bear’s members said that the purpose of establishing an Esports team full of elderly gamers was both to create an environment for them to promote their forte and to let their children and grandchildren “know their faces”. This is not the first time that an e-sports team consisting of senior players was established, previously CS:GO’s Silver Sniper team also attracted the attention of the player community when it gathered all the old men and women.
