Organisations aiming to regulate esports seem to be sprouting on an almost daily basis. The latest of the bunch is ESIC, the Esports Integrity Commission, a not-for-profit who want to “take responsibility for disruption, prevention, investigation and prosecution of all forms of cheating,” including both match manipulating and doping. Match manipulation seems a particularly large focus and the organisation is being supported by the UK Gambling Commission among others, with the ESL and Dreamhack counted among its members.
We spoke to Ian Smith, ESIC’s ‘integrity commissioner’, via email about what prompted the move towards regulation, his own leap from cricket to esports, and how enforcement of regulations will work.
