Competitive video game playing (also called eSports) is not a new phenomenon, and video game competitions can be traced all the way back to the 1970s.

However, those competitive Space Invaders and Pac-Man players would balk at what today has become a half-a-billion-dollar industry.

While back in the day at your local arcade you may have won some free tokens as your prize, the purses at the biggest gaming events now regularly exceed $1 million.

Instead of playing in front of a few of your friends, everyone from ESPN to the BBC is now covering eSports and an estimated 36 million people tuned in for the 2015 League of Legends championships final.

And like any legitimate sport, eSports has even had its own doping scandals.

FIFA 17 Trailer Breakdown - Wenger, Vardy, Akinfenwa and more stars you may have missed

Thursday, 18th August 2016

The new FIFA 17 trailer was packed with football stars. Here's some you may have missed.

The rise of FIFA eSports

The games that draw the biggest prizes and brightest players change from year to year, but one of the mainstays of the scene is the FIFA series.

A pillar of the sports game genre since 1993, in recent years its popularity has surged: in 2015, FIFA 16 was the top-selling console game of any genre in the UK.

The nearly 7 million copies sold worldwide (for PS4) was only bested by Call of Duty: Black Ops III, also a massively popular eSports title.

FIFA isn't just popular in traditional footballing nations; the series has become such a global phenomenon that some even credit it as being a catalyst for the boom of soccer popularity in America.

The game’s annual FIFA Interactive World Cup (FIWC) is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s largest online gaming tournament, with over 2 million players registering in recent years and $20,000 in prize money going to the winner.

Fans from around the world can even tune in to FIFA.com to watch the tournament’s final matches be played live.

FIFA 12 remains the fastest-selling sports game, selling over 3 million copies and making $186 million in its first week.

But Those sums have only continued to grow and LA-based equity researcher Michael Pachter recently estimated to USA Today that “All-in, FIFA generates around $1 billion for EA.”

Top Football Clubs Get Involved

But EA, broadcasters, and the players themselves aren’t the only ones profiting off eSports.

Never to miss out on where there is money to be made, major football clubs are now signing players and teams to represent them on eSports’ biggest stages.

Within the past year, clubs like Manchester City, West Ham, and Sporting Lisbon have all signed some of the top FIFA players in the world.

Similar to how European sports clubs might have handball, volleyball, and other sporting clubs aside from their football team, eSports teams within these clubs are becoming a reality.
