Today we are introducing a couple of fixes to tailor the ultimate Esports Life Tycoon experience! You can check the changes introduced with the Post-launch Hotfix 1.0.1 right here:
- Fixed a bug with the PS4 controller and its right joystick.
- Now there won't be any crashes when you are eliminated in the game and you don't have a save data to load.
- Zooming in during the gaming house segment could cause a visualization error in Mac OS. That's no longer a possibility!
- We've changed the descriptions of the Steam Achievements related to the Challenges. Go check them out!
- Fixed other minor bugs.
We would like to remind you that this 1.0.1 hotfix isn't related to the previous 1.0.1 version. We started renaming the updates after the launch of Esports Life Tycoon to reflect its full release from Early Access.
Thank you for playing Esports Life Tycoon and see you in the Summoner's Ravine!
The U-Play Online and Raiser Games Teams.
Some of you were asking why we changed the previous version 1.0.1 to the current one, named 1.0. This is just a naming convention adjustment: since the game is now fully launched on Steam, we named this update 1.0 instead of 1.1. As we detailed in the full changelog, the 1.0 is a superior update compared to 1.0.1.
Keep on keeping on!
The U-Play Online & Raiser Games Teams.
Dear esports fans,
Your suggestions are essential to making the game we all want. We hear you, and that’s why we bring you a new patch full of improvements based on your feedback.
0.7.3
BUGS
- The exploit that allowed skipping matches is gone. Fame and glory must be earned!
- The Players tab now behaves correctly when closing info screens.
- Player model rotation has been reassigned to the right mouse button, making it feel more natural.
- The Starters tab closes correctly and player files are removed upon opening other info screens.
- CEO’s emails from other teams have been improved.
- You can now pause matches without any glitches in the simulator.
- Player files can no longer be opened from screens where they shouldn’t be appearing.
- Now, Sponsor events can only happen when you have a sponsor.
- No more graphic glitches after a player overcomes a depression.
- Status balloons now behave correctly when a player leaves the house.
- Player images in their tabs now have a better resolution.
- Players no longer wear jerseys from other teams; now, they always show their true colors!
- Female player models have been adjusted to fix graphic glitches.
- And many other small improvements to make the game more stable!
BALANCING:
- Players no longer retire when they’re 23-25 years old; now they can play until they’re 28.
- Experience points for Gold potential players have been increased.
We hope all these upgrades will make your game experience even better! And, of course, don’t hesitate to contact us via Steam discussions and our Discord server.
Dear esports fans,
We hope you are having a splendid summer full of fun and video games! We continue working hard improving Esports Life Tycoon after its Early Access release and we are happy to announce that we have a new update for you. Your feedback and suggestions on the Steam forums and Discord channel are essential to us so, don’t forget to stop by and say hello!
Here are some of the improvements, tweaks and new features that Update 0.6 will bring to the table:
Update 0.6
- Time to take your team to the next level! Characters now have a new trait: potential. This stat will give you a peek at how good they could become. Players with Gold potential will be able to improve much more than those with Silver potential. The same logic applies to the players with Bronze potential. You can check the player’s potential thanks to a new menu button, but it will cost you some money.
- From now on, players will age as they would do in real life. Every season equals a year of their life and they will retire sometime around the age of 23 but, before doing so, they will tell you in advance so you can scout the market for a replacement. Make sure you hire another incredible player!
- Prepare to manage more realistic agreements! Player contracts have been revamped. They will now be measured in seasons having a maximum length of three seasons.
- Players will get your attention when they face their last contact year so you can decide whether you want to renew them or set them free at the end of the season. Are you ready to take the hardest decision?
- When hiring a Marketing employee, you can also choose a secondary sponsor instead of having to wait until the start of the next season.
- Players no longer get tired during preseason. Seize their potential!
- If you decide to play a match instead of resolving it, you can go back during the draft screen to change your decision. You won’t have to regret misclicking again!
- You can rotate your character in the character editor to get the full view!
- Fixed some issues during negotiations so the information displayed now is more precise.
What do you think about these changes? We hope this update addresses some of your concerns as well as giving you some new features that we are excited for you to try out. Please, do not forget to keep giving us your precious feedback as it helps us shape the game in your preferred direction. As an Early Access title, Esports Life Tycoon will continue to add new content during the following months and much of it will come from your recommendations.
Have the best of luck out there on the arena!

Dear esports fans,
How's summer? We're working hard here at U-Play Online, gathering your feedback and developing Esports Life Tycoon into the best esports manager ever!
Today’s update is based on what you told us on the Steam discussion forum and Discord.
Here's everything we are adding today:
Update 0.5.
- The task system has been totally reworked! Now, you can increase Hype, Training, and Chemistry infinitely before matches. You'll always have something to do in the gaming house!
- Tasks now offer more information: we've changed tasks to a numerical value to give you a better understanding of your upcoming match, as well as an expected result of how your team will perform against your rival. Task performance will be improved as you climb divisions.
- Chemistry and Training rebalanced: now, they are both equally important in preparation for the matches.
- Energy tweaked: now escalates according to your gaming house improvements.
- Each room can now be improved 5 times per gaming house, which means more growth capacity for your players!
- You now need a minimum amount of fans to reach higher divisions. In return, Hype now grants more fans. Popularity is essential for an esports team to succeed!
- Economy adjusted: more income from Sponsors and Hype, more expensive gaming houses, cheaper players' clauses and sales... Balance your profit and losses to avoid bankruptcy!
- There are now more Sponsors than ever before: 4 sponsors per division, 24 in total. Choose the right one according to your current situation!
- General balancing to allow a more logical progression through all the game, including a lower requisite CEO level to move to new gaming houses
Also, lots of issues have been fixed in this update, thank you for helping us to spot them!
WARNING: due to the sponsors' tweaks, there may be some save files which can contain sponsors that do not correspond to their season, which can lead to more or less income than expected. After ending the current season, it's automatically fixed.
We also have a surprise on this update: we have introduced a random event featuring a special guest! If you happen to come across this character, take a screenshot and share it with us on Steam and/or Discord!
How do you feel about these changes? Keep giving that precious feedback to us! Help us steer the game in your preferred direction as we're listening for every word you've got to say. Remember that, as an Early Access title, we'll be developing Esports Life Tycoon with the help from the community.
Best of luck for your esports careers!
See you soon,
The U-Play Online & Raiser Games Teams
