New Esports Title Surpassing Dota 2 in Global Earnings by 2028
Dota 2's prize pools are historically high, but emerging games with strong publisher support and global competitive scenes could surpass it.
Challenges include maintaining long-term engagement, balancing gameplay, and regional popularity. Only widely adopted games can reach record earnings.
My prediction: By 2028, at least one new esports title could surpass Dota 2 in total prize pool earnings, driven by community, sponsorship, and live event success.
