The new features include a more intuitive onboarding process, upgraded match history and statistics, improved funds management, and a seamless user experience.

"The expansion of our beta is an important moment for RumbleMonkey and our users," said RumbleMonkey CEO Jacob Rapoport. "Right from the strt, our goal has been to develop a platform that makes it fun and easy for gamers to jump into their favorite games and compete in real-money matches. This update is a major step toward that goal."



Beginning today, RumbleMonkey will issue multiple rounds of beta codes, welcoming new waves of users to experience the enhanced gameplay that RumbleMonkey delivers. Anyone interested in joining the closed beta on PC or Mac can visit https://rumblemonkey.com/ to sign up.

RumbleMonkey currently supports Blizzard's popular online card game Hearthstone to demonstrate the platform and the knock-on effects that real-money matches bring to gaming. Those knock-on effects include: heightening the excitement of gameplay; increasing the quality of competition of each match; and reducing or eliminating trolling. In the future, RumbleMonkey will support more games, including popular franchises and original IPs.


While other companies have approached the real-money gaming space, RumbleMonkey is doing so with the needs of gamers in mind. For example, RumbleMonkey is focused on supporting popular esports titles that gamers are actively playing. By focusing on prominent esports titles, and empowering gamers to initiate head-to-head matches how and when they want, RumbleMonkey's secure and easy-to-use environment provides an unrivaled casual money-match experience.

Despite rapidly increasing excitement around competitive gaming, there are still massive barriers to entry for gamers who want to earn money while playing their favorite esports. The expanded beta signals an important milestone for RumbleMonkey and its mission to democratize the esports that players already know and love.
