Aggregate social following and media network has increased over 125% from 2022, representing one of the largest audiences in the global esports market

Over 85% of Complexity's audience is under the age of 34, helping global brands reach youth audiences

FRISCO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / July 18, 2023 / GameSquare Holdings (NASDAQ:GAME)(TSXV:GAME), ("GameSquare", or the "Company"), announces that it has grown its audience to more than 500 million users across its aggregate social following and media network. This includes more than 165 million aggregate social followers at Complexity and Complexity Stars. The Company's aggregate social following and media network has grown by more than 125% from 2022 as a result of organic growth, recently added talent and influencers, and the April 2023 acquisition of Engine Gaming.

"GameSquare's audience has increased by over 125% over the past year, creating one of the largest audiences across the global esports marketing," said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare.

In fact, over 85% of Complexity's audience is under the age of 34."

"I am proud of the growth we have achieved and the compelling content we are developing as our creators produced 375 million monthly viewer minutes or 4.5 billion annual viewer minutes in 2022 alone. Our expanded scale, access to youth audiences, and industry leading, end-to-end platform is resonating with global brands. As a result, we are more excited than ever by the direction we are headed and we expect revenue growth to accelerate significantly in the seasonally strong second half of 2023," concluded Mr. Kenna.
