Spotlight Sports Group (SSG), a world-leading technology, content, and media company specialising in sports betting, has announced that it has built a fully managed football content hub for Sky Betting and Gaming to support the annual Fan Hope survey.

This partnership follows a successful execution of last year’s content hub and will see improvements across the board to enhance the user experience. This year’s site is all about giving fans the opportunity to have their say on their favourite football team. Users will have the chance to agree or disagree with the most pressing and topical football stories.

A key new feature available in this year’s content hub is the ability for users to select league winners across the EPL and EFL. Users can then add their selections directly to a betslip and share a personalised graphic on Twitter.

The content hub will be delivered in two phases with the first phase going live in mid-July and the second due to go live after the first international break of the season. This was done to keep the content and user experience fresh throughout the season.

We are confident that this is the best hub we’ve delivered so far and can’t wait to see how the Sky Betting and Gaming audience enjoys it.

Barney Wilcock, Senior Content Strategy Manager from Sky Betting and Gaming added: “Last year’s hub enabled us to effectively retain our audience for the start of the new football season and into the crucial World Cup year and we’re expecting that to continue into the 23/24 season. We know our users love interacting with the content hub and SSG has yet again gone above and beyond to deliver an excellent customer experience.”

Max Level, a leading marketing and PR agency built by gamers, has won the public relations mandate for Riot Games India and South Asia, the global video game developer and publisher behind genre-defining games such as League of Legends, Team Fight Tactics, VALORANT, and more. As part of the partnership, Max Level will lead Riot’s communication strategy in the region, driving awareness and engagement across its expanding player and esports communities.

Max Level will work closely with Riot’s India and South Asia teams to amplify brand campaigns, regional esports initiatives, product updates, and community-first storytelling in India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and other South Asian markets. The collaboration aims to build authentic, culturally resonant narratives that reflect Riot’s mission as a player-focused organisation.

The synergy between Riot and Max Level stems from a shared vision to elevate gaming culture across South Asia. With both organizations placing players and community at the heart of their strategy, the partnership is rooted in long-term brand building. Riot brings a legacy of shaping global gaming and esports culture, not just through its games but also through transmedia storytelling, most notably with Arcane: League of Legends, the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series that redefined how games can expand into mainstream entertainment. Max Level, in turn, brings on-ground expertise and cultural fluency in India’s rapidly evolving interactive entertainment space.

The win follows a competitive multi-agency pitch process that saw Max Level selected from among several top PR agencies. The decision was based on Max Level’s deep understanding of the gaming and esports audience, its creative-first approach, and its proven ability to drive conversation and cultural relevance.

Siddharth Nayyar, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Max Level, said, “Winning the PR mandate for Riot Games is a defining moment for us. Riot has not only shaped the modern multiplayer era but also built global communities around player-first values. We’re thrilled to help expand that legacy in India and South Asia, a region that’s growing and evolving at a breakneck pace.”

Max Level’s mandate includes ongoing campaign support for key products and IPs, regional amplification of Riot’s global esports events, as well as strategic counsel on community engagement and creator collaborations. The agency’s track record with brands like NODWIN Gaming, SuperGaming, CyberPowerPC India, KRAFTON, ESL FACEIT Group among others makes it uniquely positioned to drive culturally relevant PR in gaming and esports.

According to the Lumikai State of India Gaming Report 2024, India’s gaming market reached $3.1 billion in FY23, with projections to hit $7.5 billion by FY28, fueled by a base of over 568 million gamers, nearly half of whom are paying users. The report also highlights how India is now the largest consumer of mobile games globally, creating an immense opportunity for publishers like Riot to scale their reach and community.
