US and Netherlands-based esports organization Team Liquid has launched a mobile version of Liquipedia. The esports wiki is now available on both iOS and Android as a free ad-supported app.
Liquipedia is one of the most widely used databases in esports. The wiki maintains full records of match results, player histories, and major events dating back years.
The app itself makes optimal use of this dataset. The app can notify fans of recent, live and upcoming matches for their favorite game, player or team. Information about these players, teams, events and more is easily accessible for additional context.
Currently, the Liquipedia app focuses on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2, League of Legends, Rainbow Six, Rocket League, and Valorant. However, this number is likely to increase as the web version of the wiki covers more than 35 esports at various levels of detail.
Unlike many other esports organizations, Team Liquid has a clear edge when it comes to building its own apps. Liquid+ — the organization’s fan engagement platform — launched as an app in November 2021. Both the Liquid+ and Liquipedia apps are likely to be useful in boosting Team Liquid’s already progressive data business.
At the time of writing, the app has reached #46 in the sports category on the iOS App Store.
