Abstract: Esports is an industry that is growing rapidly worldwide with growing research exploring the different aspects of the industry. However, with the changing scenario around gaming, not all viewpoints are aligned. The aim of the present study was to compare the perceptions and attitudes of young adults(Gamers and Non-Gamers) alongside adults(aged 40-45) towards eSports. The study sample consisted of 10 participants, with 8 young adults ranging from 17-21 years of age and 2 mothers between 40-45 years. The thematic analysis of the data resulted in the formation of various themes, which provided a better understanding of their perceptions. Time was understood to be a critical factor as gaming often deviates one from their responsibilities, leading to issues in managing all the tasks in a given day. Peer pressure was also seen as one of the major reasons why an individual gets into gaming and continues to play them over a long period with the same interest. It was observed that individuals who game regularly often equate their gaming as a source of stress relief and escape from problems. More research is needed in this sector to wholly understand the world of gaming.
