In November 2020, Air Force Gaming made its debut as the global gaming and esports hub for the Air Force. The intramural program for service members in the Air and Space Forces began with the Air Force Gaming League connecting players and teams from the eight U.S. bases under the Air Force Global Strike Command. The league features a Discord community and competitive pop-up opportunities for service members; the goal is to eventually cover every base in the Air Force.

It goes without saying that life in general, and military life in particular, has been pretty difficult these past few months. In 2020, men and women in uniform have been restricted through quarantine, cut off from the support of family members and unable to interact with friends through daily duties.
