That’s it, the Esports Awards are over for another year, and what a showcase it was. This luxurious event, held in Las Vegas, was more ostentatious than ever before, with every big name in the industry surfacing on the red carpet. It was a place where prestigious awards changed hands, recognising competitors, creators, and organisations for their efforts over the last year in the esports industry. In this breakdown, we’re going to reveal every winner from the Esports Awards 2023.

There were thirty categories up for grabs this year, covering everything from production and cosplay to the best organisation and the most monumental play. It was as comprehensive an event as you could hope for, and it also saw a fresh host of legendary contributors make their way into the ‘Lifetime Achievement Class’. This is an exclusive club reserved for those who have dedicated themselves to the betterment of the industry, and we’ll cover that list below too.
