HARD ROCK ESPORTS OVERVIEW

As of now, the Hard Rock Sportsbook is live in both New Jersey and Iowa, with hopefully more states to be added soon. Many are aware of the notable Hard Rock brand, including the cafes and casinos, and now the sportsbook is gaining notoriety. And, the Hard Rock Sportsbook already has an app available to its customers, which is good to keep in mind.

Esports have been growing in popularity, especially in recent months when virtual sports have had their moment in the sun. New Jersey has one of the biggest sports betting markets around. So, it makes sense that New Jersey esports is quite the budding market on its own. With the growing popularity of esports, it makes sense that online sportsbooks would want to reach lucrative partnerships in the esports space. And, this is why the Hard Rock Sportsbook has made its steps toward conquering the esports market, which we will discuss later.
