The merger between Envy Gaming and OpTic Gaming went through last November, but the full-time switch from Envy to OpTic is now complete.
In the most recent episode of The Eavesdrop Podcast, Hector “HECZ” Rodriguez from OpTic and Mike “Hastr0” Rufail from Envy announced that the Envy brand is now retired.
It will be all OpTic, going forward.
Some of the teams under the Envy umbrella had already switched to the OpTic brand. Namely, Envy’s Halo and Valorant teams were already competing as OpTic.
To make everything fluid, it has all become one – with the exception of the Overwatch team the Dallas Fuel.
Envy may be revived in the future, as Rufail still owns the brand. For now, all of his focus will be on growing OpTic Gaming and continuing the winning ways of both organizations.
