From the trailer we could take the following game titles:
– Rocket League
– Rainbow Six: Victories
– FIFA 21
– VALORANT
– League of Legends
– Street Fighter V
– Fortnite
– Hearthstone
– CS:GO
When does it start?
According to the official website, more information is planned for November 15th. So it is not yet clear when Agüero’s teams will participate in competitions.
In any case there is more than enough competition for KRÜ. With Gareth Bale or David Beckham several sports stars have already dared to take the step into esport. But so far no organization of a professional sportsman has dared to take part in such a wide range of games.
