With nonstop in-game action, LEVELING UP captures all the adrenaline of gaming plus its fierce power to bring people together.

He thought he’d finally found his people on this esports team! Now, though, the other founders are opening up the group to new competitors, and Bard’s not sure he likes it.

He's about to return to gaming alone when an unexpected new friendship helps him adjust to his new teammates, manage a brewing problem at home, and bring his best for the team in its biggest competition yet.
