The e-Spengler Cup, a gamers event on Playstation 4’s NHL 22 - an ice hockey computer game simulation - has been sponsored by Casinos Davos and its casino777.ch.

The latest version of the game has just come on to the market and now players globally can compete after a qualifiers round starting on November 6.

Winners then join one of the Spengler Club teams in the e-edition of the tournament, played like the classic Spengler Cup in Davos, from December 27 to 30.

For Casino Davos, sponsorship of the esports event is a logical step in its further development of its brand. Robert Kocher, chief gaming officer of the Davos online casino777.ch, does not see esports as competition.

“We understand gaming in the broad sense and are convinced that the various platforms, including our casino777.ch, will come together in the next few years.”
