IOC enters a new era with the creation of Olympic Esports Games – first Games in 2025 in Saudi Arabia

Hopefully this goes better than the last time they tried to implement esports where they only wanted simulations of real sports.

It's pretty silly that they made esport plural in the official title. Maybe people talk that way but I'd only ever say esport games.
