TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec 20, 2017) - Millennial Esports Corp. (TSX VENTURE:GAME) company IDEAS + CARS today released a trailer video detailing the intense competition at the inaugural edition of World's Fastest Gamer. The groundbreaking competition saw more than 30,000 gamers compete for the chance to be a McLaren simulator driver, generating more than 10 million online views in the process. Now, all the action and excitement has been distilled into a one-hour special to be released in early 2018.

"Putting together this competition with McLaren was a fantastic experience for everyone involved and I think that is reflected in the video," says Millennial Esports CMO, Darren Cox. "More than anything though, producing this special has raised excitement levels about the upcoming 2018 edition of World's Fastest Gamer."

Rudy van Buren, a 25-year-old sales manager from Lelystad in the Netherlands, beat 11 other finalists to claim the title of World's Fastest Gamer. In the final round of the contest, an exacting four-hour assessment using McLaren's state-of-the-art Formula 1 simulator, van Buren beat countryman Freek Schothorst, a 20-year-old science, business, and innovation student from Amsterdam.

Also amongst the twelve finalists was Danish doctor Henrik Christian Drue, who qualifed through the mobile racing game Gear.Club. The flagship mobile gaming property of French game developer Eden Games, Gear.Club received more than 600,000 downloads during the qualifying period. In its first year of availability, Gear.Club was downloaded a total of more than 6.5 million times. A new console version of the game, Gear.Club Unlimited, was recently made available as the first realistic racing game for the Nintendo Switch.

"The success that Eden Games has enjoyed with Gear.Club, including being the chosen mobile platform for World's Fastest Gamer, is absolutely phenomenal," said Millennial Esports CEO, Alex Igelman. "With our investment scheduled to be finalized in January, we are confident that Eden Games will help lead Millennial into new and exciting revenue opportunities in 2018."
