Three of eSports largest organizations are joining forces in an effort to unify pro-gaming tournaments for the 2012 – 2013. Gaming leagues Major League Gaming, Dreamhack and the Electronic Sports League announced their partnership this weekend.

“The growth of competitive gaming over the last few years has been staggering and we have now reached the point where we need to align our efforts to advance eSports on a global scale. The collaboration between our organizations is the first step in a united effort to take the sport to the next level while benefiting all of those involved.”
