NEWARK, N.J., July 23, 2025 ~ In a groundbreaking move, Dignitas, one of the oldest and most renowned organizations in esports, has announced a partnership with Theta Labs, a leader in decentralized cloud infrastructure for AI and media. This collaboration will see the creation of 'Digi,' an AI agent designed to enhance the Dignitas community's experience in two ways: as an always-on fan resource and as a live tournament source for DIGFort, Dignitas' popular grassroots competitive Fortnite Tournament server.

Powered by Theta Network's decentralized GPU infrastructure and supported by the Theta Edge Network's 30,000 distributed nodes, Digi is set to revolutionize how fans interact with the organization while also transforming tournament administration.

For competitors, Digi will be a game-changer. During DIGFort tournaments, players can rely on the AI agent for instant support. With its extensive training on rules, point systems, schedules, and procedures, Digi will act as a dedicated virtual agent in real-time. This will streamline communication and reduce friction for players while allowing human administrators to focus on more complex tasks. Ultimately, this will result in smoother and more efficient competitions.

Founded in 2003, Dignitas has established itself as one of the top competitors in esports with 18 world championships across multiple gaming titles. Their recent victories in Rocket League and Fortnite have solidified their position as a consistent top-tier organization.

Aside from assisting with tournament administration, Digi will also provide fans with immediate access to tournament information, player statistics, and team updates across all competitive titles. This is especially important for an audience that demands instant and accurate information about their favorite players and matches. With over 70,000 members on their Discord server alone, Dignitas has proven to be an ideal testing ground for AI-powered fan experiences.

Backed by Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment since 2016 – the same ownership group behind major sports teams such as the Philadelphia 76ers, NHL's New Jersey Devils, and Crystal Palace FC – Dignitas operates with the resources and professionalism of traditional sports while maintaining a strong community-driven culture that has sustained them for over two decades.

Theta Network's EdgeCloud platform currently serves over 40 global customers, including prestigious institutions like Stanford University and professional sports teams such as the NBA's Houston Rockets and NHL's Las Vegas Knights. The addition of Dignitas to their list of clients further solidifies Theta's expansion into the esports industry, catering to organizations seeking advanced fan engagement solutions.

Digi is set to launch on July 23rd, with its initial deployment focused on Discord integration and DIGFort tournament administration. Both teams are excited about this collaboration and have expressed their enthusiasm for what it means for their respective communities.

Jake Clements, Vice President of Partnerships for Dignitas, stated that everything they do is for their community – the fans who cheer for them and the players who compete under their banner. He believes that with Digi, they are not just adopting new technology but creating a more meaningful and direct connection with their community. Whether it's a fan wanting to know more about their legacy or a DIGFort player needing a quick rule clarification, Digi will be there to enhance their experience.

Mitch Liu, CEO of Theta Labs, also shared his excitement about this partnership. He believes that esports fans are among the most passionate and tech-savvy audiences in the world and deserve interactive experiences that match their dedication. He sees powering Digi on Theta's EdgeCloud platform as a perfect showcase of how AI can serve a dual purpose – deepening community engagement while also solving complex operational challenges. He expressed his thrill in partnering with a legendary organization like Dignitas to bring this innovative vision to life.

With this collaboration between two industry leaders in esports and decentralized cloud infrastructure, fans can expect an enhanced experience while competitors can look forward to smoother tournaments. Digi is set to take the esports world by storm, and its launch on July 23rd is highly anticipated by both the Dignitas and Theta communities.
