Riot Games: Powered by AWS
Enhancing fan experience
Riot works with AWS to enhance its global esports event broadcasts throughout each competitive season for LoL Esports, the VALORANT Champions Tour (VCT) Esports, and Teamfight Tactics (TFT). Similar to the in-depth statistics provided to major global sports leagues, Riot uses AWS’s broad portfolio of cloud capabilities to provide fans with new insights and experiences.
Production for a global fanbase
Riot and AWS share a vision of bringing esports to fans no matter where they live, how they watch, or what language they speak. To achieve this, Riot is introducing Riot Games Remote Broadcast Center powered by AWS, a series of cloud-first remote broadcast centers (RBC) that leverage AWS technologies. These facilities will support Riot’s current and future ambitions to reimagine the entertainment experience across numerous areas in addition to esports and analytics/stats like music production, animation, and game development.
