The esports industry has grown into a multi-billion-dollar market, attracting millions of players and spectators worldwide. However, the psychological aspects of esports and its players remain largely unexplored in academic literature. The Psychology of Esports aims to bridge this gap by providing an in-depth analysis of the cognitive, emotional, and social dynamics that influence esports players. The book not only sheds light on how esports psychology is formed, but also discusses the field within the framework of psychological theories. By examining the many mental factors affecting players' performance (cognitive, emotional, physiological, and medical), this argument contends that esports psychology should be recognised as a distinct field.
