The list of participating titles certainly stirred up some controversy due to its favoring of real-life sports and activity simulators over actually popular competitive games. Well-known esports genres like first-person shooters, MOBAs, and fighting games are not included at all, but some titles familiar to traditional esports fans will be present. However, most of the familiar titles will only be features in showmatches.

Still, because this is a first step towards integrating digital titles into the Olympics, we’re eager to see what an esports competition powered by the sports institution will look like.

Where can I stream the Olympic Esports Series 2023?

You’ll be able to watch all the competition directly on the Olympics’ official website. To do that, you’ll have to sign up to the website first, and accept the terms, however. The website also says fans can “follow the actions” on official Olympics social media, so perhaps a livestream will be available there.

Log in screen in the official Olympics website.
You should find a log-in screen like this. Screengrab via olympics.com

Head to the top-right corner of the screen and select the option of logging in to access signing up. Then, you’ll be brought back to the live tab and click on play to watch the competition.

If the first Olympic Esports Week doesn’t leave you impress, consider this is the first major milestone to esports having a long-term presence there.
