There hasn’t been much news from Saturlita Esport in recent weeks, at least as far as the Counter-Strike scene is concerned. The CS division, which we’ve regularly covered here, has all but vanished from the media radar, which might have raised questions about the organisation’s future plans for the game. However, the situation was quite different in Rainbow Six Siege, where the French club continued its esports activities uninterrupted.
This is one of the reasons why the latest announcement has attracted considerable attention. Saturlity has officially entered the NBA 2K scene, launching a new division and beginning a new chapter in its history. This is a clear signal that the French organisation is still seeking new avenues for growth. More importantly, it does not intend to limit itself solely to the existing pillars of its esports presence.
“New Era Begins” – Saturlity Esport sets its sights on NBA 2K
News of the new division appeared on the organisation’s social media channels, accompanied by the telling slogan “NEW ERA BEGINS”. Saturlity presented a five-man squad set to represent the organisation on the NBA 2K scene:

It is clear at first glance that the new division has been established as an international project. It is primarily based on players from various European countries. In the case of the NBA 2K scene, however, this approach is entirely natural. This is because competition in this title is largely based on online matches and 5v5 formats. In these, teamwork, communication and the division of roles on the virtual court are of key importance. The NBA esports scene has operated for years on a model of mixed-nationality line-ups. Meanwhile, organisations are increasingly treating it as a viable avenue for long-term development. Whilst preparing this material and delving a little deeper into the specifics of this scene, one gets the impression that for many clubs this is not merely a side project, but a conscious attempt to establish a presence in another segment of esports
Clearly defined ambitions
Saturlity certainly doesn’t beat about the bush. In the post announcing the new division, one very specific word appears: “DOMINER”. Consequently, from the very start, the organisation is communicating high ambitions and a desire to compete at the highest level. This may also suggest that the project is not merely an experiment, but a well-thought-out attempt to enter a new esports community.
What next?
At this stage, it is difficult to predict how quickly Saturlity’s new division will make its mark on the scene. However, the French organisation’s entry into yet another esports world shows that it is not standing still and is constantly seeking new ways to build its brand. Will this be the start of a new, successful chapter in the organisation’s history? We will find out in the coming months.
