Teknoloji haberlerinin hızlı gelişimi, spor haberlerinin yanı sıra tüm alanları etkilemiş ve yeni haberlerin gelmesine neden olmuştur. Rekabetçi video oyunlarını ve bilgisayar oyunlarını hem oynamak hem de izlemek elektronik spor kavramını yarattı. En önemli özelliklerinden biri, bireysel ve takım hâlinde oynaması ve doğa sporlarını gerektirmesidir. Dünyada en az 400 milyon kişi e-spor izleyicisi, 100 milyondan fazla kişi e-spor oyuncusu ve ülkemizde en az 7 milyon kişi e-spor oyuncusu ve izleyicisidir. Teknolojinin gelişmesiyle birlikte bu gelişimin etkisini spor ve spor dallarında da görmekteyiz. İnternet ve teknoloji alanında yapılan iyileştirmeler ve mevcut network platformunun yaygınlaşması ile birlikte yeni bir spor dalı olarak ortaya çıkan E-Spor (elektronik sporlar) adı, artık bir meslek hâline gelmiş ve ülkelere yatırımlar yapılmıştır. Yatırım kanallarından biri olarak da karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Temeli oyunlara dayanan ve günden güne böylesine küresel bir etki geliştiren bu alanda, mesleki çerçeveye ilgi duyan bireylerin yaşı da dikkat edilmesi gereken alanların başında gelmektedir. Ciddi harcamalar ile sponsorluk anlaşmaları yapan büyük firmalar, bu alanın oyun çatısı olarak adlandırılmakta ve günümüzde de etkisini sürdüren bu alanın kavramsal bilgilerini ortaya koymaktadır. E-spor alanında akademik çalışmalara yol gösterecek literatüre olumlu katkıda bulunacağı düşünülmektedir.
