A challenger approaches: Equinox Esports launches professional esports in Oklahoma City

October 13, 2020 By OKgamers 1 Comment

OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE:

OKLAHOMA CITY – Oct. 12, 2020 – A rising star has taken stage in Oklahoma City with the debut of multimillion-dollar esports startup Equinox Esports.

Equinox will own professional teams that span multiple video game titles including VALORANT, League of Legends and Super Smash Bros., among others. The announcement brands Oklahoma City as the esports destination in the Midwest for professional esports athletes looking to compete at the highest levels of play.

“Esports is an exciting and growing industry with a rabid fan base,” said Chad Ford, president of Equinox. “Oklahoma City prides itself on being the ‘Modern Frontier,’ and we are excited to jump into this modern business. With all our unique combination of skills, we plan to change the game in Oklahoma.”

Equinox will produce unique in-house content in the form of podcasts, broadcasts, tournaments, video content and articles out of its newly-build 6,000 square foot facility in north Oklahoma City. The space also will function as a performance center for local, aspiring esports athletes.

“There was a need for esports in Oklahoma and finding the right team to pull this off was key,” said Chris Aguilar, general manager of Equinox. “Community and competition are key to our success. There is already so much in the pipeline, and we can’t wait to share it with everyone.”

ABOUT Equinox Esports
Equinox Esports, LLC., is the first professional esports organization to represent the state of Oklahoma. Equinox began development in early 2020 through the vision of founders Chad Ford, Chris Aguilar and Connor Knudsen. The organization is privately backed and powered by an Oklahoma-grown team of professionals with a combined 50 years of experience in the esports, higher education, marketing and cinema industries. The Equinox mission is to cultivate esports athletes, produce quality content and elevate Oklahoma City through esports.

OMG April – [email protected]!

April 1, 2020 By Isaiah Sharp Leave a Comment

Gamers we’ve been preparing for this our entire life! If there is any one group of people prepared to stay at home as much as possible, it’s us! Now normally this would be filled with wonderful events in Oklahoma, but with social distancing, and all the venues that host gaming events being shut down because they’re considered “non-essential” (the Governor’s office isn’t returning our emails to debate their claims) we’ve decided to do what we can to help flatten the curve!

It’s important in this time that we help support local businesses. We’ve put together a small list of local game shops that have curbside pick up, deliver, or online options. We will be adding to the list as we continue to gather information.

If your looking for people to game with you can check our list of gaming groups, try our Facebook group, or our Discord. We can’t wait to see everyone ONLINE!!!
