Xbox One adds more e-sports options with ESL's new app

The Xbox One is quickly turning into the better option for console gamers interested in professional gaming.

Microsoft and the E-Sports League, the world’s largest independent pro-gaming association, released the organization’s app for Xbox One today. This enables owners of Microsoft’s latest home console to easily watch any of the ESL’s events. Pro gamers (and those of you aspiring to a career as a pro) can even use the ESL app to enter tournaments for games like Halo: Master Chief Collection, FIFA 15, and more. With e-sports growing faster than ever, Microsoft is trying to keep its console out ahead of that trend. That could benefit the Xbox One console in the long run.
