LOS ANGELES, July 11, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enthusiast Gaming Holdings Inc. (“Enthusiast Gaming” or the “Company”) (TSX: EGLX), a leading gaming and media company, today announced the continued partnership with the National Football League (the “NFL”) for a third season of the popular video gaming series, NFL Tuesday Night Gaming (“NFL TNG”), debuting in Q3 of 2024.

NFL Tuesday Night Gaming’s second season generated major growth, totaling over 111 million total impressions across all platforms, a 53% growth compared to the inaugural 2022 season. NFL TNG also worked with twice as many media sponsors, growing from 11 in the inaugural season to over 24 throughout Season Two. Media sponsors were integrated through a variety of custom immersive content experiences such as Netflix’s ‘One Piece’ activation where creators debuted and played the ‘One Piece’-themed custom Fortnite map while wearing straw hats as a nod to the show, and NFL Family Game Night’s custom Lego Technic-themed episode that featured a live Lego Master Builder on set with gaming creators, NFL Athletes, and their families.

Season 3 of NFL Tuesday Night Gaming will release a special episode on July 23, featuring content from the upcoming NFL Flag Championships presented by Toyota, the world's premiere youth flag football tournament, in Canton, Ohio. The special flag-themed episode will air on July 23 on NFL TNG's YouTube channel.
