Chess is a sport, I can't see how E-sports can't be sports, it's literally the same - there may be minimum physical effort, but there is mental skill involved.

E-sports has been certified by the U.S as a real sport and people can get sport VISA's for being an E-sport athlete

There are prizes, there are people who play for fun, there are people who play competitively, there are people who play professionally.

Even though it may not lead to physical exhaustion, I am certain that it can indeed be called a real sport.
