“At CGR Cinémas we strive to give our viewers a unique experience in our cinemas”Responds David Scantamburlo, the group’s marketing director, when we ask him what motivated them to host this event. “In the current context, we need to redouble our efforts and increase the number of projects that the youngest audience might like.

From the distributor, the idea is part of continuity: “CGR Events has been distributing alternative content and anime for several years (Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, My Hero Academia, etc.), it was logical to reaffirm its position in e-sports, which unites more and more French today. “

E-sports is an additional offer for our viewers who want to experience emotions and create memories thanks to the big screen.

A statement that comes a few days after the words of Emmanuel Macron. At a reception in honor of French e-sports, the President of the Republic mentioned this way of re-inventing cinemas. “CGR Events has been positioning itself for many years by broadcasting major championships in the gaming segment”– says the distributor.

“We are delighted that Emmanuel Macron shares our vision for e-sports and its synergies with cinemas. E-sports is an additional offer for our viewers who want to experience emotions and create memories thanks to the big screen. Cinema is and remains. A necessary place for socialization. “

The rapprochement between CGR Events and the LFL (French League of Legends), which will also take place through a common stand at Japan Expo, July 14-17, to support the distributor’s position in this sector of activity.

What is the League of Legends?

Originally inspired by Wacraft III fashion, League of Legends (or LoL) was released in 2009. This is an online combat arena type video game. The main mode of the game sees two teams of five players competing in real time, in matches that last about half an hour, with each team occupying and defending their own base on the map. Each of the ten players controls a separate character, which is called “Champion”Among the more than one hundred and fifty that he was offered.

Each champion has a basic attack and five skills that can have very different effects and are unique to each. Before the game, the player chooses – in addition to his champion – two summon spells, with relatively strong skills, as well as runes, a specific system of effects, and special abilities. Summon spells and runes do not depend on the champion used.

Finally, keep in mind that each game in the League of Legends is different and the resources accumulated during the match will not be restored during the next games. The success of the game led to other titles, as well as the massively successful anime series Arcane, which aired live on Netflix in late 2021. So much so that the second season is in production.
