It’s important, however, for brands to carefully consider how their positioning and products can actually add value to the players, the esports infrastructure, and the fandom, without just bluntly inserting themselves into the culture. We are proud to have brought these two great brands together to offer all esports fans a more enjoyable and immersive esports viewership experience. ”  JingDong Gaming, commonly known as JD Gaming, will wear Sony TV China branding on their jerseys through the rest of the 2020 season and into the next.
