Plans Include New 18,000 Square Foot Broadcast Studio and Esports Venue Opening Early 2022

MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- OCTOBER 14, 2021-- Wisdom Gaming, a leader in esports production focused on
building global communities across the gaming ecosystem, today announces a long-term strategic
partnership with Mall of America, which includes plans to debut a first-of-its-kind, 18,000 square foot
broadcast studio and esports venue. The new broadcast studio, scheduled to open in early 2022, will
offer advanced production capabilities for Wisdom's current and future white label production partners
as well as the company's owned and operated properties. The split level, experiential esports venue will
feature a gaming lounge with food and beverage, seating for a live studio audience, and a retail shop.
Located on level four of Mall of America, Wisdom's new broadcast and esports venue will provide brand
and media partners a unique platform to engage with esports communities through offering individual
naming rights, advertising, and sponsorship opportunities.

The partnership was born out of a shared goal of making the Twin Cities a true hub for the
multi-billion-dollar esports and gaming industry. In setting up its headquarters at Mall of America, which
attracts over 40 million visitors annually, Wisdom can accelerate its brand efforts for a post-pandemic
world with live and virtual events that scale from intimate watch parties to large-scale marquee events in
the TCF Rotunda. Mall of America will also serve as the home base for Wisdom's owned and operated
brands and associated content, including the Minnesota Varsity League, which focuses on growing high
school esports within the state, and Torrent, Wisdom's esports organization with multiple professional
esports teams.

“Wisdom's mission and expertise has been rooted in creating global esports communities and avid
fandoms, making us a trusted full-service solution for the industry's largest publishers, including Riot
Games,” said Nicole Du Cane, VP of Sales, Partnerships, Wisdom Gaming. “By partnering with Mall of
America, we are expanding our commitment to building fan affinity and providing an incredible
opportunity for brands to authentically engage with esports and gaming audiences.”
By 2024, global games and the live-streaming audience is expected to reach more than 923 million, with
esports enthusiasts making up one-third of this audience, as reported by Newzoo.

“Tapping into the esports landscape has been something we've had on our radar for a long time,
however, we wanted to ensure that we were approaching this audience in a holistic way,” said Jill
Renslow, EVP of Business Development, Mall of America. “We are thrilled to partner with Wisdom
Gaming, leveraging their expertise in the space to establish Mall of America as the premiere esports
destination hub for guests, and global esports fans alike.”
