The new GGL hub will offer extensive video, competition coverage and video game lifestyle content. Player profiles, information on live and online tournaments, and a GGL branded AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) will help build a fan and player community base.
AOL claims the venture will bring competitive gaming to one of the largest gaming destinations on the web, underscoring the transition of competitive gaming from a niche, hardcore audience to a mass audience.
GGL is the independent voice of this community, and we’re excited to partner with them to reach more fans, said Ralph Rivera, vice president and general manager of AOL Games.
