Athletes gathering with coaches to go over their performance and plan the next game is a time-honored tradition. But the next generation of esports stars may rely on coaches with better wi-fi than whistles.
Esports platform PlayVS and AI-powered game analytics provider Omnic.AI are teaming up on a double-play to help young gamers improve at a range of competitive video games, focusing on high school students in scholastic esports leagues.
AI analytics is becoming a popular tool for gamers to review their performance and identify areas for improvement. Omnic.AI’s Omnic Forge platform leverages AI to break down how players perform when playing games like Valorant, Fortnite, Rocket League, and Overwatch 2, with Madden and other titles in the works. Players upload their gameplay footage to Omnic Forge to get analyzed and work out their strengths and weaknesses in detail far faster and cheaper than hiring a human esports coach.
